Bracket style. Sorry friend.


Everyone can nominate like 10 songs and then we'll make a huge bracket? Sounds fun

I don't want to nominate songs just to see someone else pick it for their team. Half the fun of this would be exposure to new music. Can't we just pick our teams during our turns?

No I disagree entirely, the people here should have as little say as possible

Mostly albums, but one or two are from soundtracks, and I think maybe some of the older ones might be public domain by now? They're all out there to Google so if you need to know about where a specific one came from, it should be easy to find. I tried not to add any made up songs.

How well do you think "(Untitled Pearl Jam demo)" would fare in this lineup?

No. I mean how was this list compiled? You just came up with it on your own?
