I don't know who I'll vote for yet. I need to give a listen. Corduroy is my historical favorite, but in recent years I've probably enjoyed Last Exit a little more. Both absolute titans, both top 5 songs for me, either is deserving.

Corduroy last one 14 years ago (2007). Last Exit won in 2017 (two MM tournaments ago)
This is essentially why I'm voting Corduroy - these are close enough for me that I'm letting it come down to not wanting too many repeat champs close together.

In 2007, Corduroy's path to the final went through: Evacuation, MFC, Marker In The Sand, Indifference, Rearviewmirror, Black, and Porch (I don't think Porch would make the final these days).
In that same year, Last Exit beat Can't Keep but was knocked out by Hail, Hail in round 2.

You don't have info on prior year final matchups, do you? I posted what I had in the main thread but I only go back to 2014

No Pearl Jam shows in 3 years...the lights go down and the band takes the stage. That moment of overwhelming anticipation. You can here the overhead recording of probably Master/Slave fade out as Eddie approaches the mic. One of these two songs is gonna bring us all back home where we belong - at a Pearl Jam show. Which is it? For me, it can be no other than the opening bars of Corduroy. Final answer.
