Ocean Avenue Twentythree Believe Way Away One Year, Six Months (this one was a really hard choice. I LOVE Life of a Salesman)
Ocean Avenue Twentythree Believe Miles Apart (Lowkey my favourite on the album) One Year, Six Months (This song really took on a new life for me when I saw it live acoustically on their farewell tour in Bimingham)
Ocean Avenue Inside Out Breathing Miles Apart Life Of A Salesman This round was so tough! Back Home vs. Ocean Avenue and Believe vs. Breathing were the two most difficult decisions for me this round. I still really love this album. It's pretty firmly my second favorite Yellowcard album - right behind Paper Walls and ahead of Southern Air.
Back Home Inside Out Believe Miles Apart One Year, Six Months The first matchup was brutal. Ocean Ave opened me up to the band but Back Home means more to me
Back Home (Love OA, of course, but Back Home is a top 5-10 YC song for me. And apparently a lot of other people as well, considering it may actually win this round) Inside Out (As someone else said, the two weakest songs on the album, in my opinion. Inside Out holds up better lyrically and is more interesting instrumentally, so I'll go with that) Believe (This one hurts a little) Way Away One Year, Six Months (these last two were pretty easy choices)
Damn. Missed the last round of OFTK but fwiw I would've voted October Nights anyway, not mad it won. Both songs are great though. For this round: Ocean Avenue Inside Out Breathing Way Away Life Of A Salesman
Back Home - 9 Ocean Avenue - 8 Inside Out - 14 Twentythree - 3 Believe - 7 Breathing - 10 Miles Apart - 6 Way Away - 11 One Year, Six Months - 12 Life of a Salesman - 5 Haven't counted the votes of @David- yet because it is missing a vote for the Breathing vs Believe matchup.
Back Home (I just want to see OA lose lol) Inside Out (always loved the bass line throughout the song. Most underrated on the album) Believe (both tremendous songs but I think Believe sticks out more) Way Away (classic intro track to a classic record) Life of A Salesman (LP's drumming was always one of the best parts of the band and I his parts here are evident of that for this album)
1) Back Home -- this feels weirdly blasphemous but Back Home is just so much better haha 2) Inside Out -- the only reason I had to think about this one is that sean sings for so much of Twenty Three and I love that so much. 3) Believe -- deff. kinda corny/cheesy but breathing has always been meh to me 4) Way Away -- this might be just unfairly biased but fuck it 5) One Year, Six Months -- life of a salesman is prob the one yc song I actively dislike so yeah easy one for me!
Back Home Inside Out Believe Miles Apart One Year, Six Months the back end of this album is so good so this was surprisingly easy for me

Wow what a first round. Ocean Avenue- Very tough choice but the bridge of Ocean Ave is the deciding factor. Inside Out- Very Underrated song Believe- yup Miles Apart- gotta go with this one. Long distance relationship Life of a Salesman- Song has really grown on me the past couple of years. The energy during the second verse is one of my favorite parts of the album.
Haven't been on the site a lot cause of school work but I'm so mad I missed OFTK. Happy Rockstar Land put up a good fight.
