Blame it on Bad Brackets (Bayside Bracket) Bracket • Page 19

I really love A Call to Arms and really can't stand I Can't Go On. This combined with Moceanu getting it's head chopped off is really putting me down in the dumps right now.

I'm S-I-C-K of this meaning bracket where C-H-A-N-C-E-S pass me by.

 

Well played

 

My three favorite songs on this record have yet to enter this bracket, so I’m hopeful for the rest.

 

Demons
No One Understands
Roshambo (Rock, Paper, Scissors)
I Can’t Go On

I think I'd like Howard more if the lyrics weren't so off theme. Like I don't even know who this guy is or why this song isn't a b-side but You've Already Been is. Maybe there's some meaning there I've never picked up on.

Moceanu is interesting in terms of the C-H-A-N-C-E-S it takes but overall not a great closer.

 

You've Already Been is soooooo good.

 

dammit i keep missing this, idk why im not getting notifications

Can we get at least one more vote so I don’t have to break the tie?

 

11 years ago I researched him after hearing the song

But on my first listen I was like what?

 

This is R-E-A-L-I-T-Y.

 

I’ll leave this open until 8pm EST to see if we can get at least one more vote.

 

I say we don’t move on until Moceanu is winning.

 

You know what? You’re absolutely right.

We wait.

 

Castle
No One Understands
Roshambo
A Call to Arms (this one was very difficult for me)

 

Looks like we are 11 votes short and I’ll cast them all: Moceanu

Sorry I don’t make the rules.

 

That’s the perfect amount!

 

Oops, that last round went by fast (RIP Horses). Can we get some quotes for people who have been regularly participating when the new rounds start?

Have Fun Storming the Castle
No One Understands
Moceanu
A Call to Arms

 

Sure thing, I can do that. I believe nearly everyone has voted in this round now, so I’ll go through and make a list that I can copy and paste at the beginning of each round. Thanks for the idea!

 

Final scores:

Demons - 8
Have Fun Storming the Castle - 10

No One Understands - 13
Howard - 5

Roshambo (Rock, Paper, Scissors) - 14
Moceanu - 4

I Can’t Go On - 10
A Call to Arms - 8

I think that’s everyone. Apologies if I missed tagging you.

 

Boy
I Think I’ll Be OK
The Ghost of Saint Valentine
I Can’t Go On

Happy to knock out No One Understands for I Think I'll Be Ok ( the pre-chorus melody of No One sounds really derivative and like some other song or rhyme I can't quite put my finger on. Like how "Bed Sores" by Fireworks sounds like The Chicken Dance. )

Boy is a great opening track, Ghost of Saint is a favorite on this album. And "I Can't Go On" I'm keeping just for some variety as What and What Not is pretty basic.

 

Boy (Love this as an opener)

I Think I’ll Be OK (One of the band’s most underrated songs)

Roshambo (although I do love me some Ghost)

What Not (please go away I Can’t Go On)

Also, Moceanu for good measure.

 

Boy

No One Understands

Roshambo

I Can't Go On

 

Castle
OK
Ghost
What

 

Boy (one of Bayside’s best songs, hoping it wins)
No One Understands
The Ghost of St. Valentine
I Can’t Go On
