For the tiebreaker poll, please choose one to move on to the next round.

IMPORTANT! Please do not simply vote on name recognition (or lack thereof) alone. Please do listen to each nomination and then make your choice. Even if you think you know a track well, it's still worth giving it a listen for a refresher.

The poll will run for four days. Discussion is greatly encouraged!

The nominees are (please let me know if any video doesn't play for you):

Come on Bob Marley! Don't we already have a bunch of Simon & Garfunkel songs moving forward already. I can't even believe Bob has to fight in a tiebreaker :(

Noooo! These are two of my favorite songs. I'm really gonna have to take some time on this one.

Yeah, but you gotta love a song about a guy going down for oral sex on a hooker (or at least, a skank girlfriend) and feeling jubilation over the experience.

I did it. I voted for Bob Marley.
While I love Cecilia so much, No Woman, No Cry is one of those songs that manages to evoke every damn emotion within me no matter how many times I hear it.

No Woman, No Cry.

It's kinda funny that the tiebreaker is between a heartfelt song telling a woman that everything is gonna be alright and a song about a whore. :lol:

No contest. Simon and Garfunkel.

Cecelia is not only the better song, it was also more commercially successful - for a very good reason!

Just because it's more commercially successful doesn't mean it's the superior song. In fact in most cases I prefer the one that is less commercial than the one that is. Most artists have much better songs than the ones we hear playing on the radio.

While I do love Cecilia, I'd have to agree. And there are lesser known artists that are way better than the popular ones.

I would have loved to have seen No Woman, No Cry move on, but at least it lost to a great song.

Bob Marley is amazing. It's a shame it's not moving on.
