How the hell is this even close? Stand By Me is an ok song and a better movie but really?
I voted for The Animals.
Hearts are tough, she said, most times hearts don't break, and I'm sure that's right . . . but what about then? What about who we were then? What about hearts in Atlantis?
We're still awaiting at least one person to vote before it closes tomorrow. Hope tiebreakers won't be needed.

The Houston Astros cheated Major League Baseball from 2017-18!!!! Is that how we teach our kids to play the game now?????
Both are great songs, but this is a King site....
My vote goes to Ben E. King - Stand by Me

The poll has closed. "Stand By Me" will face Simon and Garfunkel - The Sound of Silence (1964) in the Finals.
This is so, so, so wrong.
Very very very close. "The House of the Rising Sun" averaged a stunning 92.95% in five polls through the Quarterfinals. With the Semifinal tally, it amassed an aggregate 512.39% (out of a possible 600%), the biggest in the tournament so far. The second biggest? "The Sound of Silence" at 476.17%.
I don't want to play anymore.

Easy. Only 10 people voted for it, and 11 people voted for "Stand By Me".
It was a rhetorical question. (I can count to 11).
I know. I should've used a smiley
The better song won. LOL! J/K
Interestingly though, Stand by Me has just been voted the greatest song of all time in a magazine Poll, with John Lennon's Imagine in second place....

I get the feeling that sharing the title of a fairly beloved movie based on a SK story helped the winner.

I didn't realize these two went up against each other until now. It must have been during the period I was away from the site. I am really really bummed that this happened.
