Jazz (15) vs. Elvis (5) Honestly I didn't expect Elvis to be getting beat this bad. I'll leave this open a little while longer, then post the Quarter Final matches around noon (EST)
Okay, it looks like the votes have stopped coming in, and... Jazz (15) vs. Elvis (7) The Spirit of Jazz will face We're Getting A Divorce, You Keep the Diner in the quarter-finals
Okay everyone, thank you for being patient and sticking it out this far into the Gaslight Anthem bracket challenge! We're now in the QUARTER-FINALS of this competition. We've whittled it down to 14 of Gaslight Anthem's best songs. There were some major upsets and tough matches along the way (RIP '59 Sound), but we're almost at the end. This round is going to be very straightforward. We're going to do all 7 matches at once. 7 pairs of songs, you vote for your favorites and I'll tally up the votes on Monday when this round closes. Like previous matches, I won't be voting unless there's a tie. The match-ups are... American Slang VS. Blue Jeans & White T-Shirts Even Cowgirls Get the Blues VS. Film Noir Great Expectations VS. Here's Looking At You, Kid Meet Me By the River's Edge VS. Mae Old White Lincoln VS. Say I Won't (Recognize) The Backseat VS. The Diamond Street Church Choir We're Getting a Divorce, You Keep the Diner VS. The Spirit of Jazz GO!
American Slang Film Noir Great Expectations Meet Me By the River's Edge Old White Lincoln The Diamond Street Church Choir The Spirit of Jazz
Also, as a side-note I wanna thank all of you for being so cool and civil towards each other, and respectful of each other's opinions during these match-ups.
can we split this round up a bit? do the first four today and the next three in another chunk? feels like any sort of discussion is gonna get lost trying to do all seven at once.
Also I have no idea how I'm going to choose between Great Expectations and Here's Looking At You, Kid or Divorce and The Spirit of Jazz
Blue Jeans & White T-Shirts Film Noir Here's Looking At You, Kid MAE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (my fave forever!!) Say I Won't (Recognize) The Diamond Street Church Choir The Spirit of Jazz
American Slang Film Noir Great Expectations Meet My the River’s Edge Old White Lincoln The Diamond Street Church Choir The Spirit of Jazz
Ah thats a good point, i wish I had thought of that. People have started voting already though. I figured it'd be easy to do it all in 1 fell swoop given how long it's taken us to get to this point haha
woo getting that Blue Jeans vote train rolling. Holding off on my votes as I try and decide a few of them. But 100% gonna vote for Blue Jeans when I do. Brian has a lot of really good lyrics. But Still we sing with our heroes 33 rounds per minute. We're never going home until the sun says we're finished. I'll love you forever if I ever love at all with wild hearts, blue jeans and white t-shirts is probably his best
American Slang Even Cowgirls Get the Blues Here's Looking At You, Kid Mae Old White Lincoln The Diamond Street Church Choir The Spirit of Jazz Final Answer.
Also, not that i'm keeping score right now but from what I'm seeing so far, Diamond Street is shutting out Backseat which is wild
Okay blue jeans losing to American Slang had me bummed but if backseats loses to DSCC... gonna annoy me even more than 1930 losing to 45
