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

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 am on the crazy train with Jerry Lee Lewis!
So am I.
But I have to admit I generally don't like Elvis
**runs and hides**

[Ben Staad]

No need to run away or hide. I do not care much for Elvis either.

I love both artists, and there are Elvis songs that I would definitely vote for here. But, for me, Jailhouse Rock is "very good Elvis" but not "Supergreat Elvis." And GBoF is Supergreat. So, vote goes to:

Jerry Lee Lewis - Great Balls of Fire (1957)

[mae]

The poll has closed. "Great Balls of Fire" will face Chuck Berry - Johnny B. Goode (1958) in the Finals.
