    Default Great Music - Finals: 1950-1954 (Final 2 of 14)

    For this playoffs poll, please choose one track to move on to the Tournament Finals as the representative of this time period in music.

    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 twelve days. Discussion is greatly encouraged!

    The nominees are (please let me know if any video doesn't play for you):

    Nat King Cole - Unforgettable (1952)


    The Chordettes - Mr. Sandman (1954)

    Tied at eight. This was one of the hardest choices in these Finals for me. But I had to go with The Chordettes for that unmistakable pure early '50s sound and awesome melody. But of course NKC is King.

    two. Two votes back.

    Nat King Cole - Unforgettable. No doubt.

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