Whichever one was played on the fantastic Live from Orensanz is the best one.

 

I do like My Blue Heaven a lot, but I'm fairly certain with this thread, I'll Let You Live would have lost against any other song. It's pretty much across the board hated in here, I think. (Not by me, obviously).

 

Side note I actually like I'll Let You Live. A lot.


Not as much as my blue heaven though

Miami (definitely far from my favorite song on the album, but I enjoy it more than Brooklyn)
My Blue Heaven

I really hate that Brooklyn ended up against Miami

I love all these songs, but the choices were mostly easy for me. Next round is going to be tough if my top four go through.

 

Definitely super early, but the My Blue Heaven/MakeDamnSure and Error: Operator/What's It Feel Like To Be A Ghost? matchups are probably going to be close the whole way

EDIT: And the Miami/Brooklyn matchup could be a close one too!

 

Spin
Brooklyn
My Blue Heaven (super tough, but at the end of the day I'm a sucker for a tasteful use of violins/violas/cellos and My Blue Heaven delivers wonderfully)
Error: Operator (Ghost is fun live, but I don't like the album version as much. I love Error both live and on the album)

 

Spin
Miami
My Blue Heaven
What's It Feel Like To Be A Ghost?

 

Spin
Brooklyn
Sure
Error

 

that was the deciding factor for me as well. ghost is such a great live song, as is EO, but the album version of ghost just does not do it for me as much as EO does.

 

Spin
Brooklyn
MakeDamnSure
Error: Operator


Fuck this one was hard. I'm still debating if I chose right

 

Off the bat Scores:

Spin-13
Divine Intervention-1

Miami-8
Brooklyn(If You See Something)-6

My Blue Heaven-7
MakeDamnSure-7

What's It Feel Like To Be A Ghost-7
Error:Operator-7

 

This round is tiiighhhtttttt.

 

I voted Ghost over Error: Operator, but I still love both. I know a lot of people find the lyrics too repetitive, but I just love the bass line and guitar riff at the end. So good.

 

I am honestly surprised at the love for Miami, it's one of my least favorite on the album. Only beats out Up Against in my book.
