I took both of your lists and ranked each song out of 5, then tallied up the totals.

Juve got 22/25.
Matt got 18/25.

"Gone" and "Off He Goes" really brought down Matt's total in my eyes, while the only song that got below a 4 on Juve's list was "Army Reserve".

So my vote goes to Juvenal.

Interesting way to vote...I weigh songs I don't like more heavily than those I do. So, you could have all 2.5-stars and it would probably beat something with a few really good ones and one bad one.

My vote this time goes to Simple Torture.

These don't get any easier do they? Ten good songs again, the only one I don't really like is Army Reserve. But the power of the first four just narrowly beat Simple Torture. I vote for ;

Juvenal

[quote="LostDog1079"]Juvenal
Pick #1: Even Flow
Pick #2: Hail Hail
Pick #3: Inside Job
Pick #4: Satan's Bed
Pick #5: Army Reserve

vs.

Simple Torture
Pick #1: Porch
Pick #2: Off He Goes
Pick #3: Not For You
Pick #4: Gone
Pick #5: Oceans

Porch and Not for you are both very strong songs. Not for you in particular was an excellent third round pick. And oceans was pretty good for round V. gone is okay. off he goes is, well, off he goes.


Juvenal's team doesn't have any songs that really light my fire the way porch or even Not For You does (basically just even flow) but it is really consistent all the way through. If I could vote I would vote for Juvenal. So you have my moral support.

This is the only match so far that I know who I'd vote for if I could.

Simple_torture's got 2 of my top 5 (NFY and Porch) and Juvenal only has one (Hail, Hail), S_T would've had it.

If I could vote I'd go with Simple_Torture just because he has Porch

this round *is* simple torture! :wink: The Gone and Oceans combo convinced me, with the fact I don't like Even Flow live that much.

groetjes,
Mirella :)

Close call with Satan's Bed and Gone, but Juvenal had more songs to pull him out on top. I mean Hail, Hail was among the songs. Although I LOVE Not for You.
