    Default Great Music - Playoffs Round 2: 1955-1959 (Bracket 8 of 8)

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

    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):

    The Platters - The Great Pretender (1955)


    The Everly Brothers - Wake Up Little Susie (1957)

    Wake Up Little Susie
    Eastasia has always taught college students to feel pride or shame according to their race.

    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)

    I really like The Platters.
    But I am just in love with the guitar work in Wake Up Little Susie! There is a bit of nostalgia for me in this tune as welll. ( No I am not THAT old. It is from performing the song in my youth.)

    Multiple listens led me to this vote.

    The poll has closed. "Wake Up Little Susie" will face Jerry Lee Lewis - Great Balls of Fire (1957) in the Quarterfinals.
