Should be fine :) ...If it's easier for you, what I might do is let you know tomorrow which ties need to be broken (if any), and post another day's match-ups as we don't actually need the one day to be done before another day starts. Only rounds need to be completely done before we move on.

@Captain Spaulding

Funny story...I chose this WS track due to it's more accessible structure, as they often have tunes that feature a bunch of sections that usually don't repeat. A lot of their tunes are over 10 minutes, too, so I was restricted there. If you want to check out something with less repetition, check this song out. Fair warning - it's pretty long!

Lights - Peace Sign vs The Kingston Trio - El Matador

Steve Perry - No Erasin' vs The Smiths - There Is a Light That Never Goes Out

Whitey Morgan - Bourbon N Blues vs Figures - Jessie Reyez

Crowbar - Planets Collide vs Megadeth - Holy Wars - The Punishment Due

She is Beautiful - Andrew W.K. vs J.S. Ondara - American Dream

"Lebanon" was in Day 3's set. Did you mean to put "American Dream" here?

The last word of the song title is cut off, Cat. It's supposed to be Bourbon N Blues. :D

Weird. I must have put it twice in random.org instead of two by him. I'll fix that.

And the missing word. :D

Round 1 - Day 5

Lights - Peace Sign vs The Kingston Trio - El Matador
(Quite the contrast in styles. Liked both. Giving "El Matador" the edge since it sounds like something from a 50's western. Got me wanting to strap on my six-shooter and saddle up.)

Steve Perry - No Erasin' vs The Smiths - There Is a Light That Never Goes Out
(Steve Perry has an amazing voice, even if there's something inherently cheesy about the way he sings. Whether this is a brand new song or not, though, it already sounds dated. Don't love The Smiths or this particular song, but it gets my vote pretty easily.)

Whitey Morgan - Bourbon N Blues vs Figures - Jessie Reyez
(Liked "Figures" more than I expected, and I might actually listen to a couple more songs from Reyez, but this is still no contest. Love Whitey Morgan. Listening to him is like listening to a reincarnated Waylon Jennings. I sprout new chest hair every time I listen to him. This isn't one of his better songs, imo, but it still perfectly captures that outlaw spirit.)

Crowbar - Planets Collide vs Megadeth - Holy Wars - The Punishment Due
(This is a heavy ass match-up. Feeling the tempo of "Planets Collide" a little more at the moment. Love those sludgy, dirty riffs and the singer's voice perfectly complements the grimy feel of the music.)

She is Beautiful - Andrew W.K. vs J.S. Ondara - American Dream
(Not a fan of Andrew W.K.'s frat-boy rock and I remain impressed with Ondara's voice.)

Round 1 Day 5

Lights - Peace Sign vs The Kingston Trio - El Matador
Love The Kingston Trio and really didn't like the vocals in the other song. Easy choice.

Steve Perry - No Erasin'vs The Smiths - There Is a Light That Never Goes Out
I wasn't overly fond of either of these songs, but I gotta give it to Perry's voice.

Whitey Morgan - Bourbon N Blues vs Figures - Jessie Reyez
Sorry, but I hated Reyez's voice. Even if I didn't, I thought the other song was really great.

Crowbar - Planets Collide vs Megadeth - Holy Wars - The Punishment Due
I really didn't like either of these. I'm gonna give it to Crowbar for torturing me for a shorter period of time.

She is Beautiful - Andrew W.K. vs J.S. Ondara - American Dream
No contest. I'm in love with Ondara's voice and don't love anything about Andrew W.K.

I see another early exit for all my choices.

Re: Song Tournament 31
 

Lights - Peace Sign vs The Kingston Trio - El Matador - Cute, sweet little Lights. I love me some Lights! Lights is an artist that some of my family members team up to take all the kids to see. Too many good memories to not pick her!

Steve Perry - No Erasin' vs The Smiths - There Is a Light That Never Goes Out - Not a huge fan of this Perry tune, but Morrissey rubs me the wrong way.

Whitey Morgan - Bourbon N Blues vs Figures - Jessie Reyez - Got me voting for another country song... Barely made it through the second one.

Crowbar - Planets Collide vs Megadeth - Holy Wars - The Punishment Due **** luck, I guess. If the Crowbar track was against any of the other songs in this round, I probably would have voted for it. Alas, Holy Wars is one of the best metal tracks of all time. Bask in its glory!

She is Beautiful - Andrew W.K. vs J.S. Ondara - American Dream - I'm a metal guy through and through, but I just couldn't get into the first track. Ondara is clearly an immense talent.

Lights - Peace Sign vs The Kingston Trio - El Matador - Easy choice, but Lights looks like somebody... but who? I can't tell if she looks like a person I know or a bunch of people I know.

Steve Perry - No Erasin' vs The Smiths - There Is a Light That Never Goes Out

Whitey Morgan - Bourbon N Blues vs Figures - Jessie Reyez

Crowbar - Planets Collide vs Megadeth - Holy Wars - The Punishment Due - Crowbar vs Megadeth? This sounds like either a 1980's Puerto Rican tag team match where both teams bleed in the crowd for about 15 minutes or a 1990's WCW Thunder midcard match. Sorry for the oddly specific pro wrestling reference.
She is Beautiful - Andrew W.K. vs J.S. Ondara - American Dream - I find W.K.'s "frat-boy rock" to be kinda charming in a dumb way. I don't know why, but it feels "dumb guy sweet". Still doesn't get my vote, because this other track, I'm digging.

Round 1 Day 5

Lights - Peace Sign vs The Kingston Trio - El Matador
The first isn't my kind of thing.

Steve Perry - No Erasin' vs The Smiths - There Is a Light That Never Goes Out
I like some Journey songs, but am not a fan of Steve Perry's solo work. Decent Smiths song....

Whitey Morgan - Bourbon N Blues vs Figures - Jessie Reyez
I have a bit of a tough time with country, and I've no idea how describe what kind of country appeals to me. The second reminded me of someone else. Can't put my finger on it though...

Crowbar - Planets Collide vs Megadeth - Holy Wars - The Punishment Due
Ooooh tough one as I'm rather partial to Crowbar with their severely constipated vocals, but that's one of the really good Megadeth songs. Will come back to this as I'll have to listen to them back to back a couple of times to decide. *edit: it went to Crowbar

She is Beautiful - Andrew W.K. vs J.S. Ondara - American Dream
I like this J.S. Ondara fellow...

Lights - Peace Sign vs The Kingston Trio - El Matador

Steve Perry - No Erasin' vs The Smiths - There Is a Light That Never Goes Out

Whitey Morgan - Bourbon N Blues vs Figures - Jessie Reyez

Crowbar - Planets Collide vs Megadeth - Holy Wars - The Punishment Due

Re: Song Tournament 31
 

Conway Twitty - She Needs Someone to Hold Her (When She Cries) vs Jumper - Third Eye Blind Not a fan of either. The second track was slightly less annoying.

4:AM - Our Lady Peace vs Kite - True Colors Vocal in the first track was rough stuff. Kite video is weird af, but the song is awesome.

Beady Belle - Skin Deep vs Looking For The Magic - Dwight Twilley Band Actually, I like the Beady Belle song...

Ghost - Dance Macabre vs Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Red Right Hand Cave wins this, but my vote goes to Ghost, just to mix it up a little.

Burn The Witch - Radiohead vs Ensiferum - Token of Time Throwing a vote at Ensiferum, even though they will get slaughtered by Radiohead...

Round 1 Day 6

Conway Twitty - She Needs Someone to Hold Her (When She Cries) vs Jumper - Third Eye Blind
I don't care at all for Twitty, but I can't stand the voice of TEB's singer.

4:AM - Our Lady Peace vs Kite - True Colors
I didn't like the voice in the first one. This was more interesting and I enjoyed it.

Beady Belle - Skin Deep vs Looking For The Magic - Dwight Twilley Band
Another voice I disliked vs one I'm apathetic to. Apathy gets the vote.

Ghost - Dance Macabre vs Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Red Right Hand
I didn't like either but the second was more interesting.

Burn The Witch - Radiohead vs Ensiferum - Token of Time
I don't like Radiohead and I didn't like this song. I was all set to vote against it but then I played the other song and the screaming happened. Nope.

Burn The Witch - Radiohead vs Ensiferum - Token of Time

Round 1 - Day 6

Conway Twitty - She Needs Someone to Hold Her (When She Cries) vs Jumper - Third Eye Blind
("Jumper" carries with it a smidgen of nostalgia since I remember hearing this song on the radio seemingly every day on the way home from school back in the 90's. Ten-year-old me would have voted for it, but adult me much prefers the classic country sound of Conway Twitty.)

4:AM - Our Lady Peace vs Kite - True Colors
(Man, that first song was excruciating. Somebody please punch that singer in the throat. "True Colors" was strange and entrancing. I liked it a lot.)

Beady Belle - Skin Deep vs Looking For The Magic - Dwight Twilley Band
(Rarely am I a fan of songs that involve speaking in place of singing. "Skin Deep" is no exception. Not in love with the second song, but it had a low bar to hurdle.)

Ghost - Dance Macabre vs Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Red Right Hand
(Best match-up by far. I've considered nominating "Dance Macabre" in the past. Fun wins over spooky this time, although I could easily vote the other way on a different day.)

Burn The Witch - Radiohead vs Ensiferum - Token of Time
(I find Radiohead insanely overrated. "Token of Time" is killer. Love the dichotomy of power metal with folksy underpinnings. Those riffs will melt your face.)

If you like Token of Time, check out the entire record, which just their self-titled, Ensiferum. Plenty of awesome riffs throughout. That might be my favorite folk-metal record of all time.

Round 1 Day 6

Conway Twitty - She Needs Someone to Hold Her (When She Cries) vs Jumper - Third Eye Blind
Neither was my kind of thing. The first reminded me of Family Guy, so it got my vote.

4:AM - Our Lady Peace vs Kite - True Colors
Not fond of either, but the second caught more of my interest.

Beady Belle - Skin Deep vs Looking For The Magic - Dwight Twilley Band
Preferred the sexiness of the first.

Ghost - Dance Macabre vs Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Red Right Hand
Tough one, particularly fond of Ghost (yeah got stories about them :lol:). That's not one of their best (imo) but I do like it. Not more than Red Right Hand ...

Burn The Witch - Radiohead vs Ensiferum - Token of Time
Both ok songs. Prefer the trippy production on Radiohead.

Conway Twitty - She Needs Someone to Hold Her (When She Cries) vs Jumper - Third Eye Blind

4:AM - Our Lady Peace vs Kite - True Colors

HA! Missed the last 2 matchups:thanks @Captain Spaulding:



Shivaree - Goodnight Moon vs Anja Garbarek - Dizzy with Wonder

Round 1 Day7

Slayer - Spill the Blood vs Kool & The Gang - Summer Madness
I'm not overly fond of this, but the other song was just a little too chill for me.

Bob Dylan - Positively 4th Street vs Warren Zevon - Ain't That Pretty At All
That's a really good Dylan song, but I prefer Zevon.

Lindsey Buckingham - D.W. Suite vs Bob Dylan - Ballad of Hollis Brown
Another really good Dylan song and one I don't think I'd heard before, but it's not Lindsey Buckingham.

Lady Gaga (ft. Bradley Cooper) - Shallow vs Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band - Her Strut
I really don't like Bradley Cooper and am not particularly fond of Gaga. This song did nothing to change that opinion. On the other hand, I love Seger.

Shivaree - Goodnight Moon vs Anja Garbarek - Dizzy with Wonder
Parts of the vocals of Goodnight Moon made me think of Britney Spears - that's not a good thing. I did like the music though and enjoyed it more overall than the other song.

Round 1 Day 7

Slayer - Spill the Blood vs Kool & The Gang - Summer Madness
Pleasantly surprised by this choice of Slayer song. It's usually Dead Skin Mask. But that extended mix of that Kool & the Gang song is amazing on headphones, which is how I'm listening to this round's day.

Bob Dylan - Positively 4th Street vs Warren Zevon - Ain't That Pretty At All
Bob Dylan's one of those artists I think is a great songwriter but his voice, damn. Granted, this isn't his most nasal. The second I'd never heard before, and it's ok.

Lindsey Buckingham - D.W. Suitevs Bob Dylan - Ballad of Hollis Brown
Ok this was tought because that's a weird little tune from Lindsey Buckingham, and I like weird.. But WOW, that's probably the one time I'm impressed with Bob Dylan as is (as in, not being covered by someone else). I think it has to do with how aggressively he's strumming and how hard he's belting it. That's a turn on.

Lady Gaga (ft. Bradley Cooper) - Shallow vs Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band - Her Strut
The first was ok but didn't do anything for me. The second was pretty bitchin'.

Shivaree - Goodnight Moon vs Anja Garbarek - Dizzy with Wonder
Tough match, I like both. Have to vote for the second as it's an earworm I'm hoping to exorcise. I'd listen to more of the second, so no hate here. :)

Re: Song Tournament 31
 

Slayer - Spill the Blood vs Kool & The Gang - Summer Madness - Second track was a bit boring. Not a Slayer fan, but they get the vote this round.

Bob Dylan - Positively 4th Street vs Warren Zevon - Ain't That Pretty At All - Man, I just can't get past Dylan's voice, like, ever. Zevon gets the vote.

Lindsey Buckingham - D.W. Suite vs Bob Dylan - Ballad of Hollis Brown - Arg, More Dylan!

Lady Gaga (ft. Bradley Cooper) - Shallow vs Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band - Her Strut - When I saw the match-up, I chuckled and figured Seger was an easy win. He still wins, but man, I almost voted for the other track - Gaga has a killer voice. Her strut is a better tune, though.

Shivaree - Goodnight Moon vs Anja Garbarek - Dizzy with Wonder - Liked both, but liked the second more.

Round 1 - Day 7

Slayer - Spill the Blood vs Kool & The Gang - Summer Madness
(Went back and forth with my vote, but "Summer Madness" is ultimately just too smooth.)

Bob Dylan - Positively 4th Street vs Warren Zevon - Ain't That Pretty At All
(Not one of my favorite Dylan tracks, but I still like it far more than the competition.)

Lindsey Buckingham - D.W. Suite vs Bob Dylan - Ballad of Hollis Brown
(That Buckingham song was . . . interesting. Not really sure what I thought of it, to be honest.)

Lady Gaga (ft. Bradley Cooper) - Shallow vs Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band - Her Strut
(I've yet to see the movie, but so far I've liked what I've heard from the soundtrack. Been a fan of Gaga since she first exploded onto the scene, and Cooper has a better voice than I would've expected. "Her Strut" is just a better overall song, though.)

Shivaree - Goodnight Moon vs Anja Garbarek - Dizzy with Wonder
(The stop-start rhythm of "Dizzy with Wonder" grew on me as it went along, but I still prefer the slinky, sexy quality of "Goodnight Moon.")

Both good songs, but this one suits my current mood more.

Bob Dylan - Positively 4th Street vs Chic - I Want Your Love

Elton John - I Want Love vs The Alan Parsons Project - I Wouldn't Want to be Like You
Both good, but the Parsons one is much catchier.

The Steel Woods - Straw in the Wind vs J.S. Ondara - Lebanon
The Steel Woods one is very good, but I'm still in love with Ondara's voice.

Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band - Her Strut vs Rotting Christ - Devadevam

Re: Song Tournament 31
 

Weird stuff left!

If I could chose the winner, it would be “Enigma - Sadeness.”

I remember it from the Paul Mercurio spanking scene in Exit to Eden. I’ve thought about including it in a Song Tournament before (and maybe I did?), but didn’t expect it to go far. I have good taste.

My runner up song would be “Kool & The Gang - Summer Madness.”

That would be a strange Final Two for one of these things.

This is taking too long already!

SEMI-FINALS

1. The Steel Woods - Straw in the Wind vs. Bob Dylan - Positively 4th Street

2. Quincy Jones - Razzamatazz vs. The Alan Parsons Project - I Wouldn't Want to be Like You

(I broke some ties and picked Bob Dylan and Quincy Jones.)

24 HOURS TO VOTE ONLY.

Re: Song Tournament 31
 

Suspect still needs to vote!
