Man that "3" is waaay bigger than I expected, guess I should've looked at the dimensions before adding it to the post

Nominations now open for Round 4.....



1. William Clark Green - Ringling Road
2. Enamel Animal - Unfaith
3. Champaign - How 'Bout Us
4. Brother Cane - Got No Shame
5. Maddie & Tae - Die From a Broken Heart
6. Ryan Bingham - The Weary Kind
7. Symphony X - Electric Messiah
8. Michael Romeo - Fear of the Unknown
9. The Runaways - Cherry Bomb
10. Jean-Michel Jarre - Fourth Rendez-Vous

Round 4 nom:
Horse Party - Animal



The Runaways - Cherry Bomb - I didn't expect a song to be nominated which would beat this one for me, but Champaign got a lot closer than I expected. I'm not a big fan (I barely know any of their stuff) but this song has always been fantastic.

Champaign - How 'Bout Us - I've always liked this song but never knew who it was by, so thank you whoever nominated it (too lazy to look back) this was a nice interlude in my day.

Brother Cane - Got No Shame - Well that was a rocking good time. Thank you.

Michael Romeo - Fear of the Unknown - Fast and punchy. It doesn't go on too long. I like it

Symphony X - Electric Messiah - This is on the outskirts of my wheelhouse, but I like it. These always seem to be a little too long, but other than that I'm happy with it.

William Clark Green - Ringling Road - I quite liked this. Not sure if it's something I'd listen to again and again, but it passed its time nicely and didn't outstay its welcome with me.

Ryan Bingham - The Weary Kind - More emotive than the following, so goes above it this time.

Maddie & Tae - Die From a Broken Heart - Radio-friendly country. Light and inoffensive.

Jean-Michel Jarre - Fourth Rendez-Vous - Familiarity and the fact it's short means it just finds itself above next place.

Enamel Animal - Unfaith - Maybe it's just my mood today. It's ok, but it's just kind of there. Turns up a little after a few minutes, but even then it's just the same. Maybe it's just because I'm unfamiliar with it?

Round 3

1. William Clark Green - Ringling Road
(I haven't liked anything else I've heard from this guy, and I don't necessarily think this song is great or anything, but it's impossible for me not to dig it given the various elements: a circus theme, substance abuse problems, a noir-ish intro, a coda that spirals into madness, a video that circles around a dead clown . . .)

2. Enamel Animal - Unfaith
(I love how this song continued to morph and change as it went along. At first I thought it was going to be a whispery, ambient piece; then the guitars suddenly come to life. Just as I thought it was going to be an instrumental, the vocals start. What began as sleepy background music had me banging my head by the end. Impressive. Never heard of this group, but judging by the video views, neither has anyone else.)

3. Ryan Bingham - The Weary Kind
(Pretty sure I've nominated this in the past. Sound quality feels a bit off in the link, but it doesn't take away from the song. Love the sparseness that's like a western desert. It really puts the emphasis on the emotion and the lyrics.)

4. The Runaways - Cherry Bomb
(I wish we had chicks with this level of spunk and attitude in the mainstream today.)

5. Champaign - How 'Bout Us
(Pretty smooth. The type of song that slow dances the listener while subtly grabbing two palmfuls of butt cheek.)

6. Symphony X- Electric Messiah
(For the most part, this song didn't do much for me, but that guitar solo was killer.)

7. Maddie & Tae - Die From a Broken Heart
(Solid, radio-friendly country. I feel that the emotion/lyrics are undermined by such an upbeat approach. Or maybe that approach is meant to speak on the ability to get over such heartbreak. Either way, it doesn't quite work for me, but it's a pleasant listen.)

8. Brother Cane - Got No Shame
(Not bad, and I can listen to this type of rock all day, but sorta generic/forgettable. I dug the emphasis on the harmonica, though.)

9. Michael Romeo - Fear of the Unknown
(Love the ferocious pace and instrumentation. Hate the singer's voice.)

10. Jean-Michel Jarre - Fourth Rendez-Vous
(Felt like the intro to a song more than anything.)
