    Default Great Music - Playoffs Round 2: 1965-1969 (Bracket 8 of 8)

    For this playoffs poll, please choose one track to move on to the Quarterfinals.

    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):

    Dusty Springfield - Son of a Preacher Man (1968)


    The Rolling Stones - Gimme Shelter (1969)

    Tough vote, as I like both songs about the same. Don't love either one--but both are "pretty good." Voted Dusty Springfield - Son of a Preacher Man (1968) but either one advancing is fine with me.

    so did I (kinda surprised myself with that choice... but it is a really really really good song)

    Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
    When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
    bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Funnily enough, apart from "Paint It Black", "Gimme Shelter" is my favorite Stones track remaining. And it's behind...

    The poll has closed. "Son of a Preacher Man" will face Creedence Clearwater Revival - Fortunate Son (1969) in the Quarterfinals.
