Not gonna lie: I love "Blurry". Always have. It totally works for me. I like the layered guitars, I like how intense the vocals get in the chorus and the bridge, I like the gloomy mood.

Easy vote.

every Godsmack song is tedious to get through.

My best friend when I was a kid loved 'Blurry'. I thought it was stupid, but to be fair I was still stuck on pop punk and ska like Blink and Goldfinger at the time. He found god and became uninteresting. I miss him, and it gets my vote.

Godsmack because they’re not Puddle of Mudd, again.

Jeez give us Creed vs. Puddle of Mudd or some shit, make it interesting.

I always felt like the personal misfortune Wes Scantlin describes in "Blurry" was a fair thing for him to suffer as penance for subjecting the world to "Control" and "She Hates Me." However, it didn't fully pay off the debt, so I'm going to hit him again by denying him my vote in this round.

It was a cheap concert that my friends wanted to go to and I tagged along. Deftones was also on the bill, but Chino was so drunk they sucked too.

I don't really care for 1 other PoM song, but I think blurry is really good for some reason

Serenity: I kinda like it... with a different singer I'd maybe genuinely like it. I can't get past his shitty personality and voice.

Blurry: Can't get past :52 cause of that nasally voice, backwards cap, and his face. The music is pretty good, though.

This is difficult cause both songs annoy me and appeal to me for similar reasons. I'm going with Serenity cause the singer annoys me less.

I am not sure I ever heard this Godsmack song before. It does not sound familiar.

It is very boring. "Blurry" is bad, but it's better. I like the use of harmonics to build the base of the song

This tourney has the worst band name in "popular" band history with Hoobastank, and it also has the most true descriptive band name that sums up this whole genre with Godsmack

Godsmack because in a career that is basically one big ripoff of other artists, at least this track is a fresh take on Filter's Take a Picture.
