    Default Great Music - Round 1: 1990-1994 (Group 5 of 16)

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

    Pearl Jam - Alive (1991)


    Soul Asylum - Runaway Train (1992)


    Mazzy Star - Fade Into You (1994)


    Sir Mix-A-Lot - Baby Got Back (1991)


    Seal - Crazy (1990)


    Sting - Shape of my Heart (1993)


    Michael Jackson - Remember the Time (1992)

    "Fade Into You" is one of the most beautiful songs ever, of any time period. That slide guitar kills it.

    I'm so glad Mazzy Star even made the list! There aren't any voices quite like Hope Sandoval's.

    One of the most endearing traits of this song is its feeling of timelessness.
    I believe that if some time traveller dropped this recording off at a radio station in 1942, they would play it to rave reviews.
    An undeniable classic
    even without the time travel.

    Really?... a novelty song?
    All that's left of what we were is what we have become.

    I can't believe it! bears are in shock

    voted:
    Alive and Runaway Train, which are just very good
    Fade Into You, which is, as everyone has said, a masterpiece
    and Shape of My Heart, which is my personal favorite in this group

    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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
