    we are nothing more than mannequins Prestigious

    21st Century Breakdown (This was pretty easy for me. This is one of my favorite songs on 21st Century Breakdown and I think that Macy's Day Parade is a bit dull - I'd probably rank it in Warning's bottom half)

    Brain Stew (Another pretty easy one for me - J.A.R. is very likely my favorite b-side, but Brain Stew is an all-time great Green Day song and essential to their discography)

    2000 Light Years Away (I really don't have a ton of attachment to anything prior to Dookie. I'll give this the slight edge since I can remember how it goes just by looking at the title)

    Jesus of Suburbia (Super unfortunate matchup for Ha Ha You're Dead, because I would've voted for that over several of the other songs in this round. Jesus of Suburbia may be the most ambitious song that Green Day has ever written and I still expect it to win the entire bracket)

    Stay the Night (This is another unfortunate matchup. In a perfect world, all of the trilogy songs would've been matched up against non-trilogy songs so that none of them made it to the second round. In any case, at least these are two of the better trilogy songs. I'll give Stay the Night the edge here, but I'm not too invested in this matchup)

    Still Breathing (Definitely the toughest one for me this round! This matchup was really tough. When I Come Around is an all-time great Green Day track, but over the past month or so I've slowly come around to the possibility that Still Breathing may have become my favorite Green Day song)

    I've noticed that a bunch of recent brackets haven't done a wild card round with the second place finishers from each album. Are we not doing that with any of them anymore?

    I used to do them, but thought that seeing a song win the whole bracket when it didn't win its own album was just weird (Smile in Your Sleep in the Silverstein bracket comes to mind here). I think others still do them though.

    imagine how much @ncarrab would be complaining if we had a wild card round which extended this bracket by a few more days

    I quietly bowed out of this bracket a while ago (before coming back for the championship round) so I didn't even realize there wasn't a wild card round. So the joke is on you, COWARD.

    I like the concept of a song getting a second chance, but when it wins by beating the song it lost to in the album bracket, it just feels wrong. It makes a good revenge story though.
