    Default Great Music - Round 1: 1985-1989 (Group 15 of 16)

    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):

    Randy Travis - Forever and Ever, Amen (1987)


    Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt, and Emmylou Harris - To Know Him Is to Love Him (1987)


    Guns N' Roses - Sweet Child O' Mine (1987)


    Steve Winwood - Higher Love (1986)


    Pet Shop Boys - West End Girls (1985)


    Leonard Cohen - Everybody Knows (1988)


    David Bowie - As the World Falls Down (1986)

    "Forever and Ever, Amen", "Everybody Knows", and "As the World Falls Down" are tied for fifth. Go Leonard!

    I think this is the first group where no song is eliminated and we have a three-way tie for the last spot.
