Song Tournament 3 - Brackets

Anyways, you're the second person to have a big negative reaction to Coldplay. This'll be a good place to learn about you guys and your interests.

I think the thing I hate most about Coldplay is that every other band now sounds like Coldplay. Coldplay clones or singer/songwriters who also sound very much like each other.

I don't like Coldplay either, but I thought the Animal Collective song was alright. I had never heard of them before.

They have irritated me since they became mainstream popular. They just had a look/sound that screamed, I dunno, U2-wannabe or something. And everyone loved them. And they just seem so white bread.

Well, now there's three.

And now for the Marky Mark / 1990's "heavily sampled from Lou Reed's Walk on the Wild Side" song:

JJ nominated Animal Collective.

I also didn't like either song in that match and I can't stand Coldplay, but that song was less irritating than the other.
