Black Butterflies vs. Don't Come Down wasn't hard in that I didn't know what to do, but voting against Don't Come Down was so brutally painful. I had to really think about DYR? vs. Sound of Reverie, and I honestly don't know why but I felt I had to vote for Reverie.

 

Taxi vs Bad Behavior could’ve gone either way

How Do You Feel is pretty handedly my least favorite song on this record. LLL was a step up for The Maine and it’s the only song I feel doesn’t match that quality — feels like it could’ve easily been on an older record.

SOR is my favorite on the record

BBADV has that really bad alphabet line but it’s the first sign of the band treading some new ground on the record and just killing it. Plus I’ve never really liked the bridge to last Chorus transition in DCD, if I have to nitpick to make a decision

I never noticed how horrendous that line was until you pointed it out. Jesus... lol

Yeah it’s really not good lol. Feels really cramped in there with the rhythm he chose to sing it with too, imo. The “twenty six” part in particular is really jagged.

Now that you mention it lmao

There are o n l y

What a stretch

 

Black Butterflies is my pick for this album btw and is probably this band's best song.

 

And I like the alphabet line haters

The Sound of Reverie is perfection and if it doesn’t win I hate you all

“You may not recognize a friend” added to that line the second time around in the bridge is so goddamn satisfying

 

It won’t win, sadly
