[COLOR="green"]East:
1. Schindler's List Soundtrack - Main Theme: I like both songs to be honest, but having seen the movie, this song really has a much different meaning, and represents a lot more.
2. Erin McCarely - Pony (It's Ok): Decent songs, but this one is the better one in my opinion. It's got a nice vibe.
3. Sherwood - A Different Light: Pretty upbeat and has a nice sound. The other song was pretty good, but personally I really didn't like the female vocalist's singing in it, so I could bring myself to vote for it.
4. Deathsmiles - Hades Castle: I just don't like the Beatles. Like at all. And the song in this bracket is no exception.
5. Murray Gold - I am the Doctor: Love Doctor Who, and this song captures a lot of epicness about the series.
6. Super Meat Boy OST - Ballad of the Burning Squirrel: Just got this game, and I can't wait to get to the part where I can hear this song. So hype.
7. DKCR OST - Gear Getaway: Not a fan of Coldplay either, and this just brings back dem ol' memories of my DKC exploring as a kid. I actually need to buy DKCR.
8. BlazBlue: Continuum Shift - Gluttony Fang (Hazama's Theme): The other song just wasn't my taste, but it was decent.

West:
1. Bon Jovi - Runaway: Always liked this song.
2. Yoko Kanno - Inner Universe: Good series, great song.
3. Eric Whitacre - October: Didn't like the Iron Maiden song.
4. ZTS - Worldend Dominator: Didn't really like either extremely, but this one I preferred.
5. Jam Project - Across the Legendary Kingdom: lolsupersentai
6. Scott Brown - How Many Sukkas (Plus System Remix): Better of the two, and it has a decent beat.
7. Anberlin - Time and Confusion: A little mainstream, but not really a bad thing. Plus I don't really have the ears for death metal atm, even though I do like it, I'm not feeling it right now.
8. Pokemon R/S/E Remix - Mt. Pyre: Pokemon is always good. :d[/COLOR]

Copying me perhaps? XP

Also, the hour long Green Carnation song really isn't that hard to listen to, you just have to do something else while you're listening to it. Distracts you from giving it your undivided attention, but makes up for it in the fact that you can actually listen to it all.

If I'm copying you, it isn't deliberate. :f6: Also, NJNR, Dual, Infection, and BTA all need to finish their votes. As do I. >_>

Not that I'm hating on the song, I just don't have the attention span to sit past 11 Minute of one song.

East
Match 1: Schindler's List Soundtrack - Main Theme. I hate (the vast majority of) rap. <_<
Match 2: Warmen - Salieri Strikes Back. This was very tough for me, actually. I ended up going with Warmen because while I loved the vocals of Pony, the rest of it just sounded too... generic.
Match 3: Kamelot - Where the Wild Roses Grow. Didn't really like A Different Light.
Match 4: Deathsmiles - Hades Castle. I was never a huge fan of the Beatles, and Something isn't really one of the songs of theirs I like. There were things I disliked in the other track too, but I preferred it at least.
Match 5: Murray Gold - I am the Doctor. a) Generally awesome. b) Massive points for being in a 7-beat time signature. c) I didn't really like the singer in the other song. <_<
Match 6: Muse - Knights of Cydonia. The SMB track was pretty awesome (great name too), but Muse is just generally fantastic, and Knights of Cydonia is no exception to that rule.
Match 7: Coldplay - Viva la Vida. DKCR is a great game (seriously if you like the DKC games and you don't have it, GO GET IT WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR), and that's a pretty good track, but far from my favorite.
Match 8: Green Carnation - Light of Day, Day of Darkness. Like most people, I didn't listen to the whole thing, but what I DID listen to was pretty awesome and I didn't particularly love the BlazBlue track.


West
Match 1: Bon Jovi - Runaway. I rather liked this song, plus the vocals from the other were... meh.
Match 2: Yoko Kanno - Inner Universe. Awesome vs. not quite as awesome. >_>
Match 3: Eric Whitacre - October. Veeeeeeery tough choice for me. I really liked them both. Ended up going with October, though.
Match 4: Snappleman - I Could Be Banned Soon Trigger. Worldend was pretty awesome too, but CT had some of my favorite final boss music ever. I don't love how it ended, but fantastic otherwise.
Match 5: Jam Project - Across the Legendary Kingdom. lolJapan. Also, I didn't really like the vocalist for the Failure song. He sounded too whiney. <_<
Match 6: Yui Makino - CESTREE. Wasn't a huge fan of either, but I preferred CESTREE.
Match 7: Anberlin - Time and Confusion. I do like some Dethklok songs, but this isn't really one of my favorites. Plus I liked Time and Confusion.
Match 8: Pokemon R/S/E Remix - Mt. Pyre. Awesome remix, and the other song is just kind of meh in my opinion.

Well, I'm probably going to close this one once NoJobNoRules, DualReaver, and xBTAx get around to finishing their votes *cough cough cough*. That'll make 15 voters, so we shouldn't have any ties.

There is no way I can finish my votes tonight, and I want to make sure I get them in. I'll have them in by... 5-6 PM tomorrow? Frown

EAST DIVISION
Match 1: Kanye West (feat. Bon Iver, Rick Ross, Jay-Z, Nicki Minaj) - Monster <-- The other was good, but I'm more a fan of good hip-hop than classical stuff... and this was some good hip-hop
Match 2: Warmen - Salieri Strikes Back <-- A bit of power metal fanboyism + don't like the genre of the other song
Match 3: Kamelot - Where the Wild Roses Grow <-- Neither one really wowed me
Match 4: The Beatles - Something <-- The OST was cool (really cool in fact) and I'm not even a huge fan of The Beatles... but... I just couldn't vote against this song - it's great
Match 5: Murray Gold - I Am the Doctor <-- Neither one is super cool, but I've seen a couple episodes of Doctor Who season 5 so I think my slight bias swung this one for me
Match 6: Super Meat Boy OST - Ballad of the Burning Squirrel <-- For some reason, I enjoy Knights of Cydonia more when playing it in GH3. SMB song was just all kinds of cool
Match 7: Coldplay - Viva la Vida <-- DKCR song was alright, but imo can't compete on Coldplay's level - and I'm not even a Coldplay fan, really
Match 8: No. No, I am not listening to an hour long song. This thing is taking long enough already. Default my vote to the other song if it comes down to a tie, otherwise I abstain from this match entirely

WEST DIVISION
Match 1: Cansei de Ser Sexy - Let's Make Love and Listen to Death From Above <-- this song was pineappleing epic levels of weird and I loved it, also the breakdown was p cool (P.S. Infection how is this kpop?)
Match 2: Yoko Kanno - Inner Universe <-- OK, listen, I don't hate kpop - in fact, sometimes I don't mind it at all. That's mostly because of the gratuitous nudity and sexual dancing the girls usually exhibit, but even then the songs don't bug me most of the time. This song bugged me a lot, plus the GitS song is the tits
Match 3: Iron Maiden - When the Wind Blows <-- sighhhhhhhhhhhhh. Neither of these songs are my taste. I miss old Maiden so pineappleing bad. Hell, I'd take Brave New World Maiden. This is just... sighhhhhhhhhh
Match 4: ZTS - Worldend Dominator <-- This pomegranate is cool. The Chrono Trigger remix was alright, but so far I've only enjoyed my own picks more than this one right here
Match 5: Jam Project - Across the Legendary Kingdom <-- Side note, video for this was EPIC LULZ; more importantly, most of NFG's songs annoy me (too bad you didn't pick one of the few I like, guy that picked this!)
Match 6: Yui Makino - CESTREE <-- This one was hard. First song is energetic as pineapple and fun to boot... Second is just so chill though - I loooooooooove the chilled out electronic style, so relaxing
Match 7: Dethklok - Happy Birthday (Dethday) - Nothing wrong with the Anberlin song per se, Dethklok just makes me XD
Match 8: Local H - 24 Hour Break-Up Session <-- I'd almost rather continue the "not voting on #8 thing" because neither of these impressed me much, but since I know Al will complain, here D:

DONE

DID I BORK THE GAME>!!?!?!?!?!

Y'know, you CAN do what several other people (myself included) did, which is listen to the first 5-10 minutes and base your judgment off of that. You don't HAVE to listen to the full hour. Also, Meph, you'll be the 16th voter, so if anything you'll be causing ties. >_>
