Anna Begins

 

Anna Begins, easy.

Cowboys

 

Cowboys is my favourite (or maybe second favourite, behind 1492) on SN&SM but my pick has gotta be Anna. Everything about it is perfect to me and I totally understand it, whereas Cowboys is a bit more elusive

 

"Cowboys" relies more on the narrative of that particular album, whereas "Anna Begins" is fairly universal and just incredibly resonant both as an album track and as a standalone.

 

Anna Begins

 

And the beginning of the end has ended!

Cowboys - 1
Anna Begins - 6

Round Two next!

 

Championship
ROUND TWO

1.) Mrs. Potter’s Lullaby vs. Anna Begins
2.) Round Here vs. Accidentally in Love
3.) Palisades Park vs. Up All Night (Frankie Miller Goes to Hollywood)
4.) Friend of the Devil vs. A Long December

 

Gonna have to think about that third match up

 

Anna Begins
Round Here
Up All Night (Frankie Miller Goes to Hollywood)
A Long December

 

These are my votes too

 

Anna Begins
Round Here
Palisades Park
A Long December

 

Mrs. Potter
Round Here
Palisades
A Long December

 

Mrs. Potter’s Lullaby
Round Here
Up All Night (Frankie Miller Goes to Hollywood)
A Long December

First match up is really tough, but "Mrs. Potter's" just edges out "Anna" for me. The rest of these are no-brainers for me.

 

Anna Begins
Accidentally In Love
Palisades Park
A Long December

 

I think I might have to ban you for that second pick, bud.

 

I've always found Round Here a little overrated plus AIL has some significance within my marriage plus I know it's not going to win anyway. Gotta throw it a bone.

 

Mrs. Potter’s Lullaby (this one was tough)

Round Here (Accidentally in Love is great, but I can’t pick it over Round Here)

Up All Night (Frankie Miller Goes to Hollywood) (not too bad)

A Long December (Friend of the Devil is a great cover, but this was easy)

 

Damn, that first matchup is impossible.

 

Sorry for the late post! Was ready to post the results right before bed last Only to discover two tiebreakers - yeesh!

My votes...

Anna Begins (As much as I love “Mrs. Potter,” I think this one means just a little bit more to me)
Accidentally in Love (Kinda the same reason as above)
Up All Night (just the catchiest)
A Long December (I mean... c’mon)

Mrs. Potter’s Lullaby - 3
Anna Begins - 4

Round Here - 5
Accidentally in Love - 2

Palisades Park - 3
Up All Night (Frankie Miller Goes to Hollywood) - 4

Friend of the Devil - 0
A Long December - 7

Round Three up next!

 

Championship
ROUND THREE

1.) Anna Begins vs. Round Here
2.) Up All Night (Frankie Miller Goes to Hollywood) vs. A Long December

Will leave this open until tomorrow open, and then y’all have the whole weekend to decide the champion!

 

Oops, I forgot to come back and vote and break these 2 ties, but thank you for doing it for me. I probably would've gone with Anna Begins and Palisades Park, but I'm glad I didn't have to be the deciding factor haha.

Anna Begins
A Long December
