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):

Voted for RHCP, but also meant to vote for White Stripes. My Stripes vote didn't go through when I fat-fingered my phone's keyboard. :(

No problem, I'll add a vote when posting the totals.

Let's see..., out of the, what? 96 songs in the 2000 - 2009 groupings, I like this one better than maybe 92 of the rest?

This is actually one of the few polls from the 1990's onward where I voted for a particular song, rather than selecting the least horrible of the group.

I don't understand...this is not consistent with the results I am seeing. I am seeing a 3 way tie for second at 36.84%.

Now I understand. I have a tenuous grip on math to begin with...i thought it was slipping.

That Dagger tune is gone, that's what's important.

You would think that a song with "Dagger" in the title would be cool but alas....
