Hello Helicopter The Worst Part It Had To Be You Calling All Cops This Is For Real Even If It Kills Me Last Night Broken Heart I’m honestly in shock that Fell in Love is beating out The Worst Part, as well as Antonia (one of the more skippable songs on the album) is obliterating Calling On Cops. It’s like watching the 2016 election results roll in.. WHAT IS HAPPENING
Not Asking You To Leave The Worst Part It Had To Be You Antonia This Is For Real Even If It Kills Me Last Night Broken Heart I love Point of Extinction a ton, so it's sad to see that go. But It Had to Be You is the first song that made me realize how much I love this band, so I had to choose that. Everything else was a pretty easy choice ha
Will listen to this as soon as I can at work and report back with the definitive result for each matchup.
It's a bit sad that The Worst Part is losing but it's a bside so it's expected. It's fucking crazy that anyone thinks Calling All Cops, easily the worst song on the album, is better than the glorious Antonia.
Quick and dumb question unrelated to MCS but does anyone know why every time i try to post a pic or gif it always give me a photo icon with an red X over it? To this day I’ve never been able to post a pic on this website unless it’s from insta.
Hello Helicopter Fell In Love Without You Point Of Extinction Antonia This Is For Real Even If It Kills Me Last Night Broken Heart Some of these were really tough! Such a great album.
Not Asking You To Leave (I really don't like Hello Helicopter) Fell In Love Without You It Had To Be You Antonia (I haaaaaaaaaaate Calling All Cops) This Is For Real Even If It Kills Me Last Night Broken Heart
I first have to say that I love the b-sides from this record, they're so good and it was hard voting against them, but they were just up against songs I like more. Hello Helicopter Fell In Love Without You It Had To Be You (This was tough, I really like both of these songs, but IHTBY edges it out. I love those nonsensical lyrics in the 2nd verse) Antonia (This was easy, but I don't hate "Calling All Cops" like others seem to. I just love "Antonia", it's probably a top 5 MCS song for me.) This Is For Real Even If It Kills Me (I like the idea of "The Conversation" more than the execution. A sparse, piano-driven MCS song seems like a great idea, but the lyrics and vocal melody here are a little clumsy, and there's nothing for them to hide behind given the sparse instrumentation.) Last Night (I've never been big on the acoustic version of FILWY, and I love the way "Last Night" builds.) Broken Heart (This one was hard for me, because I'm not huge on either of these songs, but "Broken Heart" is more of the classic MCS song and I'm not a big fan of how "Where I Belong" just kind of ends.)
Don't ever change the way you are, I've never loved anyone more. Christ, those lyrics are fucking heartbreaking.
Not Asking You To Leave Fell In Love Without You Point of Extinction Antonia (Easiest decision I've ever made in one of these brackets) Can’t Finish What You Started Even If It Kills Me (for real though, FUCK this match up) Last Night Broken Heart
Current totals: Not Asking You To Leave - 6 Hello Helicopter - 11 Fell In Love Without You - 12 The Worst Part - 5 Point of Extinction - 4 It Had To Be You - 13 Calling All Cops - 2 Antonia - 15 Can’t Finish What You Started - 5 This Is For Real - 12 The Conversation - Even If It Kills Me - 17 Last Night - 15 Fell In Love Without You (acoustic) - 2 Broken Heart - 15 Where I Belong - 2 Nothing here is even really close, so I'm going to call the round here. I'm not sure when I'll close round 2 (it's going to be a busy weekend for me), but you'll at least have through Sunday. I agree on Hello Helicopter, Fell In Love Without You, Antonia, Even If It Kills Me, and Last Night. I would've voted for Point Of Extinction, Can't Finish What You Started, and Where I Belong though. Pretty impressed that Even If It Kills Me actually won unanimously. I'm not sure I've ever seen that.
Round 2: Hello Helicopter vs. Fell In Love Without You It Had To Be You vs. Antonia This Is For Real vs. Even If It Kills Me Last Night vs. Broken Heart To be honest I think all of these are no brainers. I think you'll all agree, except there's one I'm not sure how it will turn out.
Fell In Love Without You. I like both songs but Fell In Love Without You is fantastic and I think it's possibly their best opener. It Had To Be You. The lyrics in parts of this song are incredible and really set a bar for the album lyrically early on. Even If It Kills Me. My favourite song ever. Broken Heart. I love that repetition and slight change in the lyrics ("But I'm getting used to it/You have to get used to it", becomes "You never get used to it/You just have to live with it"). I love both songs but I think Last Night will win this match up so I'll go for BH.
Fell In Love Without You It Had To Be You Even If It Kills Me Broken Heart All SUPET easy. Also, @mattfreaksmeout , let me know if you want me to move it to the next round at the 24 hour mark or if it’s clear winners across the board.
Ya we'll see. I kind of like not starting new rounds on the weekend, just because I feel like it's easier for everyone to keep up/people are more likely to forget about voting, but if we have like 15+ votes and clear winners, then we can move on at some point tomorrow.
