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):

Pablo, so glad to see you voted for Stargaze. I hope everyone listens to it and it gets a few more votes.

It's a great tune, very unique sound. I hope it does well. I'm surprised "Chicago" is in last (but it's early still). That is a tremendous song. One of the best of the decade for sure.

Only nine votes in here and still all very close.

With about 10 hours to go we have a tie for fifth with "Stargaze" and "Chicago". Both great songs, but "Chicago" is a masterpiece!
