Semi-Charmed Bracket (Third Eye Blind) Bracket • Page 20

And with that, “Blinded” wins for Out of the Vein!

Blinded - 12
Palm Reader - 3

“Self-Righteous” becomes our second song to not receive a single vote, and “Can’t Get Away” got knocked out in like the first round or some shit, which means all of you are wrong, this bracket is rigged, we’re starting over!

(Not really.)

Ursa Major coming up!

 

There should be some easy matchups on this album, if you make me choose between Dao and Bonfire in the first round I quit

 

Don’t hate the player, listen to Ursa Major!

NOTE: “Carnival Barker” will not be included in this bracket. Its presence on the album is as a brief fragment of a much longer song, the entirety of which isn’t available in any official capacity.

Ursa Major
ROUND ONE

1.) Why Can’t You Be? vs. Water Landing
2.) Summer Town vs. Dao of St. Paul
3.) About to Break vs. Monotov’s Private Opera

 

Water Landing
Dao of St Paul
Monotov’s Private Opera

 

Well i just listened to the album again and I think I'll sit this one out. Some good moments but overall still the least interesting 3EB album of the first 4.

Yeah yeah, I know, reported. Haha

 

Water Landing
Dao Of St. Paul
Monotov’s Private Opera

 

Why Can’t You Be? (DAMMIT! My two favorites on the album. :( )
Dao of St. Paul
About to Break

 

Water Landing
Dao of St. Paul
Monotov’s Private Opera

 

Water Landing
Dao Of St. Paul
Monotov’s Private Opera


All of these were really tough. Also, the Summatime demo version is fuckin' amazing. I like it better than the original.

 

only one I'm not crazy about is About to Break, but still

 

I love the guitar tone on the solo at the end.

 

Water
Dao
Opera

 

I got some weird opinions about this album.

Why Can't You Be?
Summertown
About To Break

Current Totals
————————

Why Can’t You Be? - 2
Water Landing - 6

Summer Town - 2
Dao of St. Paul - 6

About to Break - 3
Monotov’s Private Opera - 5

 

You know how I felt now when I did ETID.

 

Whoa, you did an ETID bracket?! I can’t believe I missed that!

What loss drove you out of your gourd?

 

1.) Water Landing
2.) Summer Town
3.) About to Break

 

There were quite a few that I was surprised by. Petal won, which is an amazing track but I don't believe is their best ever. Chorus feels otherwise and I swallowed that pill haha.

 

Wcvb
Summatown
Monotovs

 

Why Can't You Be (I actually don't like this version that much, but I adore the performance on Red Star)
Summer Town
About To Break

 

Water Landing
Dao of St. Paul
About to Break

 

Probably the best part of the Red Star version is the nervous laughter following the ‘blowjob’ line. For the record, I love them both equally.

Also, if “Monotov” loses this early, I swear to Christ...
