Great Music - Round 3: 1985-1989 (Group 9 of 12)

[mae]

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):

2Pac for the win!

Looks like you voted for all four. You can only pick two. So, which two will it be?

[Shannon]

I choose 2Pac and Snoop Lion.

[T-Dogz_AK47]

I choose 2Pac and Snoop Lion.

I wish Tupac had of made it past the nominations.... I nominated 'Hit em Up' and 'Changes'. Awesome songs!!!

In this group though, it's gonna have to be Chris Isaak!!! :clap:

Are you just trying to be a dick, Shannon? What's the point? You make nonsensical comments in over 20 threads where you didn't even vote, and then you come into these '80s threads and vote for all 4 songs.

Why are you doing this?

[Shannon]

I voted! Sometimes I voted four times, but then I started voting for two. This is fun! I LOVE that there are so many threads of fun!

And there's more threads coming, right? MORE threads of fun?

[Jon]

Damn it!

I am the asshole of these threads, Shannon.

East Coast/West Coast battle?

[mae]

Great to see the awesome "Wicked Game" in the lead (the sexiest song of all time), but how is "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" on last? :cry:

[mae]

The poll has closed and the following tracks are moving on to the playoffs:


Chris Isaak - Wicked Game (1989) 62.50%
Def Leppard - Pour Some Sugar on Me (1987) 56.25%


And the following are eliminated:


The Bangles - Walk Like an Egyptian (1986) 43.75%
Tears For Fears - Everybody Wants to Rule the World (1985) 31.25%

The Tears for Fears tune nearly defines 80s music for me. Hate to see it eliminated.
