    Default Great Music - Round 1: 1945-1949 (Group 6 of 8)

    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):

    Guy Lombardo - Managua, Nicaragua (1947)


    Édith Piaf - La Vie en rose (1947)


    Judy Garland and The Merry Macs - On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe (1945)


    The Andrews Sisters - Rum and Coca-Cola (1945)


    The Mills Brothers - Dream, Dream, Dream (1947)


    Dinah Shore - Buttons and Bows (1948)


    Lucky Millinder - Who Threw the Whiskey in the Well (1945)

    Very cool seeing Judy Garland is the lead. Such a great song.

    La vie en rose is far from being my favorite Piaf song, but had to vote it anyway lest Piaf drop out

    When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)

    "Dream, Dream, Dream" and "Buttons and Bows" are also tied for fifth. If you haven't voted yet, there's still about 24 hours to break the tie, hopefully.

    Even though the catchy Guy Lombardo song didn't make it through, still all in all a good group (as long as the tiebreaker goes my way LOL).
