The Background (I like Graduate a lot, but The Background is probably my second favorite on this album) Narcolepsy (Jumper is great but I’ve heard it way too many times) Good for You (Another tough one) Losing a Whole Year (This was a relatively easy one for me)
Thank you! Wasn’t aware you started the trend, but thanks for doing so! Took me a long time to hop on the train but, it’s been a lot of fun! Feel free to join in! (Out of curiosity, who won the blink bracket?)
As a casual fan only into their older stuff, Narcolepsy is top 2 for me (with LAHY). I always assumed it was highly rated by hardcore fans, being kind of a deep cut with quirks and complexity but also super catchy.
Haha yeah I started them back in April of 2016. First Blink, then Taking Back Sunday, Story Of The Year, Jimmy Eat World, MCR and a band we no longer mention. I’m glad to see it still running so strong :) And the Blink winner was Feeling This!
I’ve debated coming out of retirement for either a Hawthorne Heights one (Bracket Is For Lovers) or an Andrew McMahon one (Something Jack’s Bracket In The Wilderness) This is giving me The itch!
Haha, those titles are awesome, you should definitely do it! I would participate in the HH bracket, at least.
Jumper may be one of the most overplayed songs of the last 2 decades but it's a hell of a song still.
And the results are in! Round One is over! The results are below, with the winners carrying on to the next round highlighted in bold... Graduate - 6 The Background - 17 Narcolepsy - 15 Jumper - 8 Good for You - 13 Thanks a Lot - 10 London - 3 Losing a Whole Year - 20 On a personal note, very happy to see “London” wasn’t completely shut out - such an underrated song! Round Two coming up in a sec!
Self-Titled ROUND TWO 1.) The Background vs. Motorcycle Drive-By 2.) Semi-Charmed Life vs. Burning Man 3.) Narcolepsy vs. I Want You 4.) How’s It Going to Be? vs. God of Wine 5.) Good for You vs. Losing a Whole Year
Motorcycle Drive-By Semi-Charmed Life Narcolepsy God of Wine (this was fucking brutal, probably my two favorites on the record) Losing a Whole Year
Motorcycle Scl I want you Hows it Losing I remember we did a massive bracket of all the albums on tvcy a few years back. Don't remember the winner.
The Background (Brutal matchup - my second and third favorite songs on the album) Semi-Charmed Life (Pretty easy, Burning Man is somewhat forgettable for me) Narcolepsy (Also pretty easy for me) God of Wine (How’s It Going To Be? is great but God of Wine is my favorite) Good for You (This was a tough one, but I think this is a bit of an underrated gem. I won’t be upset with either outcome here)
Oh fuck me this starts out impossible. Motorcycle drive Semi charmed I want you How’s it gonna be Losing a Hole
Motorcycle Drive-By (fucking brutal) Semi-Charmed Life I Want You (Could have gone either way on this one) God of Wine (How's It Going To Be? is the best of the singles but cmon) Losing a Whole Year
