I love two weeks but I don't agree with these scores at all. Is there any way to check or block matching IP addresses from voting two or three times?

I believe voting is tied to username, and that only logged in users who have reached level two can vote. So there would have to be a sock puppet problem for there to be a poll integrity problem.

True, but thanks to the high expectations after 212 and her own tabloid drama pushing out much of the attention towards the actual music much of it has been forgotten these days. 1991 and BEWT does have a number of strong tracks, but not well known these days beyond Mon Azaleia die-hards

Such a bad take... she has plenty of great songs.

That said, I prefer Two Weeks.

Twigs easy. I like 212, but not nearly enough to rival one of the best Twigs tracks.

Must easier choice than the last 212 matchup, Azaelia's one-song atom-bomb of a career is fascinating on it's own right (for better or worse), but this song holds up beautifully. Agree with Norman's statement about the coldness of the otherwise impressive "Two Weeks", think that's what always made it hard to get into her early work. Still, no contest for the 212.

I'm super hungover, spluttering and shitting my insides out, but if '212' came on right now I'd still get up and dance. I like Twigs, but nowhere near enough to get me to vote against '212'.

I for one never took to Twigs. Too cold. She does to soul what the XX did to rock.

212 bangs as much today as the first day I heard it. Can't stop my feet.

Two Weeks is a beautiful, bruising track but 212 is such a forthright declaration of intent. so loud a starting pistol. If Banks were more stable I'm sure she could have made a fruitful career off of it, as it stands it is one of the great what-if's.
