But they don’t change. This was a colossal waste of time.

I think you keep the repeat winners in there. More satisfying if we can knock them out via voting.

But we don’t. It’s practically the same final 8 or 16 or whatever every year. Yes, we all think those songs are amazing and we love them. Let’s move on to some other stuff.

Thanks Stip! Lots of hard work making these matchups - I know from experience having created Lenny March Madness

Thanks again

In fairness two of the last four winners were 'new', and 11 of the last 13.

We are going to see about ways to expand the voting pool a bit next year, which will also mix things up a bit

it’s The Fixer’s time. Voting will be open to anyone who was a Target employee in 2008-2009

True but we have to get better organized and campaign for certain songs. I want some of my favs that have yet to win beat out these legacy tunes, it will mean more!

We can’t even organize the “let’s all eat dinner together separately” idea

As always, big thanks to Stip for doing this. I felt like I was out of it most of the year. But when I did check in and vote, I had a good time. DTE is a worthy champion.

Is there a list of previous winners, by year?

Thanks.

Go is the only one two years in a row, and if remember correctly, one of those years we used live versions.

That's my memory a well.

Also, the 2010 In My Tree win has an * next to it, too, as it wasn't a full March Madness.
