finally done thank god

FINALLY I'M DONE

Skipping. Too much to do lately.

Things seem slow. Anyway, I'll be getting my votes in tomorrow night. I can't right now and I'll be gone all day tomorrow, but I'll try to get them done when I get back.

<____<

 Main bracket

EAST
Match 1: Pig With the Face of a Boy - Complete History Of The Soviet Union, Arranged To The Melody Of Tetris. Combination of awesome song and awesome band/song name. Also I didn't really like Ashes that much.
Match 2: The Audition - Los Angeles. I didn't really love either, but I preferred Los Angeles.
Match 3: The Orichalcon - Clairvoyant Eulogy. Again, didn't love either, but the remix was better in my opinion. I just think it didn't quite capture the feeling of Lavendar Town as well as it could have.
Match 4: Uncle Kracker - Follow Me. I'm starting to sound like a broken record with the "didn't love either" routine, but meh. I really didn't like the vocalist for Fall For You at all, and Follow Me was pretty good.
Match 5: Mario Paint - Through the Fire and Flames (Dragonforce Cover). I had to go for this for the lulz. And I actually didn't like the battle theme that much.
Match 6: Jonathan Coulton - Code Monkey. I'll give the Candlemass cover credit for being interesting, but I vastly prefer Blue Oyster Cult's version. Also, Code Monkey strikes a special chord with me (it being my future profession and all <_<).
Match 7: Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra - Fragrance of Dark Coffee (Orchestra version). Orchestral Godot vs. meh. I don't even have time for one cup of coffee while deciding this round. >_>
Match 8: Andrea Bocelli - Con Te Partiro. I was going to vote for the direct IV injection of 80s, but then I listened to the second song in the match.

WEST
Match 1: Jimi Hendrix - All Along The Watchtower (Bob Dylan Cover). Another "didn't love either but preferred ____" situation.
Match 2: Gigi D'Agostino - The Riddle. This one was catchy, and I didn't really like American Jesus.
Match 3: Murray Gold - The Greatest Story Never Told. Didn't really like One Week (the Weird Al version is much better in my opinion <_<), and Dr. Who has some awesome music.
Match 4: Mad World - Gary Jules. Mad World is pretty, We Are One is kinda meh.
Match 5: They Might Be Giants - Experimental Film. TMBG are silly, and I didn't really like the other song that much.
Match 6: Aqua - Dr. Jones. I actually liked them both, but I liked Dr. Jones better.
Match 7: Taste - Ren'ai Circulation (Orchestra version). Again, liked them both, but orchestral music is too delicious to not vote for. <_<
Match 8: Cee Lo Green - F*ck You. Catchy and hilarious. The other one was good, but not enough.

I totally didn't take an extra few days or anything.

I'm far too lazy to vote in all of the match ups but I might make some picks in the losers round. Kind of surprised by the lack of J pop songs..

I'll probably do some next time. To tell the truth, I wasn't really sure what to choose this time... I intentionally chose "Pony" as something unexpected last time, but this time I wasn't really sure of what to pick. I already have a good idea of what I'll be doing next time, though~

Lol, I always know what songs I'm putting in next time.

For me, bands are easy to pick, it's the songs that give me trouble since my favorites tend to change from day to day. XP

I'm not the host or anything, but...

I just tallied the votes and we have one tie. >_>

That tie may or may not get resolved when I finish my votes.

Which is totally happening soon.

<_<;

Of course it will get resolved, because it won't be a tie any more no matter which one you pick. Unless somene else votes...and you might create more ties.

I don't think anyone else will be voting.
