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

I think the internet is broke...The poll shows that me and Pablo just voted on the same three. Just kidding, Pablo. :)

One of the easier choices of late. But that's not my favorite song by The Offspring (where was "Come Out and Play" or "Self Esteem"?)

I'm sure I brought this up when I nominated it but Master of Puppets is my favorite Metallica song and I think this version of it works really well with the orchestra. I know a lot of people that didn't like the S&M album overall but this song I could listen to over and over again.

I also wish No Leaf Clover would've made it through the nominations. That's another song off that album that I really enjoy.

Master... the whole album, is a piece of durable music... not just a one off ditty.

I dunno, I was personally not a fan of the orchestra, though in theory it should be cool. The original is a classic.

Assuming you are referring to the Master of Puppets album, I'll agree.
