Some songs being against others they shouldn’t face until way later rounds makes me sad.

 

Regardless of your opinion of "Goodbye Sky Harbor", you have to admit that JEW successfully pulled off a good 16 minute song, something that is rarely seen outside of prog rock circles nowadays.

I'd take either of those over it in a second, especially "You Were Good."

You missed the last matchup, Crush vs Ten

 

Ooops!

Crush in that one.

 

Second round matchup will be Just Watch The Fireworks vs For Me This Is Heaven. Absolutely brutal

 

They're both extremely underrated closers/songs. I love the production on "You Were Good", and the lyrics are absolutely crushing

 

I don’t disagree!

 

I guess it's goodbye...Goodbye Sky Harbor

 

"You Were Good" means a lot to me personally. It's either my third or fourth favorite JEW closer. "Mixtape" is great too, but doesn't hit me quite as hard.

 

"You Were Good" is a very personal song to me as well.

The lyrics below hit extremely hard,

"Either you're just bad at cheating
Or there's something in your heart you wished I knew"

 

The down side of random generating these.

 

Alright everyone it’s time to close out round 1. Great round with some close matches but we’re well over 24 hours. Here are the scores:

@bachna84 @truelovewaits work is SLAMMED today. Mind taking over tallying for a bit??

 

In the Thrice bracket we have T&C vs Phoenix Ignition in round 2 of IC, which should probably have been the final round for that album. Random brackets are cruel.

It's shocking that I'm the first one who's picked "For Me This Is Heaven" so far!

That was the toughest match-up during that round for me.

 

Just like with the Indians this year, sometimes the ending matchups aren’t what they should’ve been.
