UGH. Ugh. UGH. You actually managed to get me to vote for the Spice Girls. At least a few of their songs are pleasant. I can't listen to the Prodigy.

Oh god, I think I just died a little inside when I voted for Evanescence. But anyone over Nickelback...

Re: ULTIMATE Music Tournament:Bracket #56

Gang of Four
Prodigy
Evanescence (surprised Nickelback isn't seeded higher)

Re: ULTIMATE Music Tournament:Bracket #56

Fats Domino
Vampire Weekend
Bjork
Gang of Four
Meat Puppets
Prodigy
Nickelback (ANYTHING over Evanescence, and I think that in Europe Nickelback has only had one hit while Evanescence had a few, so I had to suffer them more times... but damn, 2 of the worst bands ever against each other, that's no luck)
Aaliyah

Re: ULTIMATE Music Tournament:Bracket #56

#1 Fats Domino - another 1-seed that's just a bit too high; I don't think he'll last long in this bracket
#9 The Calling
#12 Afrika Baambaataa
#4 Men at Work - great 80s band
#3 Phil Collins - I like some Phil Collins songs, and I really hate some Phil Collins songs (don't get me started on Sussudio). It's hard to believe that the same man created the brilliant "In the Air Tonight" and the dreadful "Two Hearts".
#6 The Spice Girls - one more reason to dislike The Prodigy: I'm forced to vote for the Spice Girls
#10 Evanescence - I really like Evanescence. Amy Lee is a great vocalist
#2 Santana - probably deserves a #1

Today's Favorite: Phil Collins (he wins on volume over Men at Work and Evanescence)
Today's Favorite I didn't vote for: Nickelback
Favorite Song from today's bracket: "My Immortal", Evanescence

Re: ULTIMATE Music Tournament:Bracket #56

#1 Fats Domino
#8 Vampire Weekend
#5 Bjork - Harsh on Mr. Baambaataa to meet this tiny powerhouse in Round 1
#4 Men At Work - Too many good memories from my youth. I realize I should be more knowledgable about Gang of Four.
#3 Phil Collins - Not a fan of Meat Puppets. As a result, Collins couple of good songs garners him the win, rather than the rest of his dreck losing it for him.
#11 The Prodigy
#10 Evanescence
#15 Aaliyah

Favorite this round - Bjork
Favorite not voted for - Afrika Baambaataa
