During the third round of The Great Music Tournament, please vote for up to two tracks you would like to move onto the playoffs. The top two 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):

Lol nothing special.

I was a horny little 15-16 year old and the music video came on on MTV (remember that? when Music Television showed music?) while I was at a girl's house and we started messing around and getting heated while the video was blasting in the background, but her parents unexpectedly came home from work and I had to sneak out the back window.

You know, basic teenager stuff :lol:

:lol: That's fucking hilarious and awesome.

Also, I think the time of Genie in a Bottle was around the same time the music video playtime began to taper off on MTV. Fucking TRL and all that bullshit. You almost lost your virginity to Carson Daly's voice. Don't lie. :cyclops:

I can't believe the Marcy Playground song isn't getting more votes.

It's a very good song (and my nomination, if I'm remembering right). But a Top 24 of the time period?
