Don't Tell Me It's Over

Every Time I Look For You

Story Of A Lonely Guy

What Went Wrong

Hardest was probably the choice between The Rock Show and What Went Wrong.

 

Agreed that is a super hard pick. It's only 5 behind though so it could come back. (Would be 4 if @House Of Wolves fixed his vote so I could count his vote for it)

 

I think Please Take Me Home is one of their most underrated songs. Sad it's gonna go out in the first round. Love the bridge, and the lyrics hit home so hard when I was a teenager.

 

I agree, I love PTMH. Although Everytime I Look For You is one of my favorites because I love the Tom/Mark trade off....such a hard call

 

Both are jams to play along to on guitar as well.

Another idea to consider for a fun "elimination game" I've seen other forums do with blink albums is each day have everyone vote for their least favorite song on the particular record. Whichever has the most votes is out. And so on. So for example with Enema of the State you have all songs. Each day everyone casts a vote for one song to eliminate (their least favorite). The song with the most votes is out and we move on to the next song the next day (and so on) until there is one final song remaining. It was super popular and we did every album then did all the winners against each other and I believe Feeling This won.

 

Possible after Blink Madness idea

 

And that will conclude today's matches and Round 1 of TOYPAJ Round Up. There were some matches that were close for most of the day, but in the end the winners won by quite a bit. Here are the final scores:

Don't Tell Me It's Over-9
Anthem Part Two-24

Every Time I Look For You-23
Please Take Me Home-10

Story Of A Lonely Guy-25
Happy Holidays, You Bastard-7

The Rock Show-20
What Went Wrong-13

This sees Anthem Part 2, Everytime I Look For You, Story Of A Lonely Guy, and The Rock Show advance to round 2. Here are Those matchups:

TOYPAJ is one of my least favorite Blink albums so these matches have been pretty easy for me. Personally I think Every Time I Look For You is one of their best pre-Untitled songs, and Stay Together for the Kids is a pivotal song in their discography. Really hope both make it to the end.

 

Stay Together for The Kids (I'm surprised Reckless Abandon is winning)

You're doing that on purpose now lol

 

Heh heh heh

 

Reckless Abandon - I just like the upbeat stuff more. When I think of blink, I think of fun. STFTK is a great song. Won’t hate if it advances.

Time To Break Up - bonus songs are among the best on the album and travis’ drum fill in the last chorus is KILLER.

Anthem Part 2 - FUUUUUCK this was hard but Anthem part 2 is one of the greatest album openers of all time. Don’t ban me but I prefer it over Feeling This.

Rock Show - it may be my favorite single from them and it for sure is my favorite bridge.

 

Stay Together for the Kids
Online Songs - both songs are ultra light stuff lyrically but Online Songs is just better. Love the rapid-fire delivery and the harmonies in the hook.
Everytime I Look For You - toughest matchup, both are great.
