Fox’s Dream One of my qualms with this bracket is the winner was more or less set out from the beginning.
Both great songs and worthy contenders, but on listening to the album again just now I was feeling Bear more so I'm going with that.
This one wasn't very close! Fox's Dream Of The Log Flume takes it in a landslide. Final Totals: Fox's Dream Of The Log Flume - 15 Bear's Vision Of St. Agnes - 3 ------------------- Pale Horses is coming up next!
Pale Horses - Round One: 1) Red Cow vs. Magic Lantern Days 2) D-Minor vs. Blue Hen 3) Lilac Queen vs. Birnam Wood ------------------ Pale Horses - Round Two: 1) Match 1 Winner vs. Pale Horse 2) Dorothy vs. Mexican War Streets 3) Match 2 Winner vs. Rainbow Signs 4) Match 3 Winner vs. Watermelon Ascot Round One begins now!
Magic Lantern Days D-Minor Birnam Wood I really hope Magic Lantern Days or Dorothy wins this album overall.
Magic Lantern Days(both these songs tie into the concept of the record so well. Feelings of the apocalypse mixed with re capturing your youth. MLD gets the slight edge from me) Blue Hen (barefooted pilgrims at the shrines of our youth. C’mon the lyrics on this song=amazing) Lilac Queen (though I love the almost MtB guitar in Birnam Wood)
Red Cow D-Minor (surprised I almost voted Blue Hen, forgot how much I liked that song) Birnam Wood I do like this album but for whatever reason it didn't hit me the same way it seems to have for so many others. That said, I could listen to Rainbow Signs on repeat all day long, such a great song.
Current Totals: Red Cow - 8 Magic Lantern Days - 4 D-Minor - 9 Blue Hen - 3 Lilac Queen - 9 Birnam Wood - 3
