During the first round of The Great Music Tournament, please vote for up to five tracks you would like to move onto the next round. The top five tracks will be moving on. Keep in mind that the percentage of the vote a given track receives will determine its standing going forward.

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 seven days. Discussion is greatly encouraged!

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

Man, "Drive" is such a beautiful song and that guitar is something else.

EEekkk...the Godsmack tune is tied with Avril Lavigne!!! Just one more reason to question this tournament.

Yeah. And only one vote for "Adagio for Strings" which is a tremendously epic piece of music.

I need to take a moment to apologize or several of my posts. I made these sort of posts with humor in mind. I did not think they would be taken this seriously.


I now see how this comment was taken seriously. I am sorry to pablo and all participants.

Both "Drive" and "Adagio for Strings" are probably my two personal favorites in this group and both are way out of it :cry:

For what it's worth, I also like Tiësto - Adagio for Strings (2004) very much.
