I'm not into RMP as much as most people, unfortunately. This is one of the better tracks, should probably give the album another listen just in case.

Pulciperla is a new discovery for me and the song is an absolute delight. Definitely voting for Grand Hotel, thanks kokkinos for a great discovery.

PulciPearl is good but Racing Mount Pleasant is a great track. An easy winner here for me.

Racing Mount Pleasant was one of my favourite finds of last year, ended up at 15 on my year chart, definitely can see myself voting for this one again if it keeps going.

Ok. So on repeat listens this became rather easy for me. The PulciPearl track would be welcome as part of a soundtrack/movie, but I wouldn't be cueing it up too often on my turntable. Quite the contrary for "Call It Easy" from Racing Mount Pleasant which reminds quite a bit of peak Bon Iver. Very much an epic & gorgeous track. Great discovery!

Easily calling it for Call It Easy.

I can sort of see why they'd want Godzilla carrying a woven wool kerchief or blanket, or whatever that is on the PulciPerla album cover (unless it's a tea-towel — Godzilla would never carry a tea-towel), but what's with the cloche hat and the shovel? And is that a braided wig coming out from under the cloche hat? Godzilla doesn't need a wig and doesn't do gardening, he eats radioactive material and breathes death-rays. I voted for them, but this seems disrespectful.

Wow! Never heard of either before but absolutely love both. Super hard one here. Will be checking both albums out down the line for sure.

Thanks Kokkinos—

I'll be going with my nom here, but it's kinda fun to see PulciPearl on the board. That one kinda came out of nowhere at the beginning of last year and kept gaining steam—

Really liked Call it Easy. Fresh, emotional, accessible, and of course the jazzy touches are always appreciated. Might vote for it in the next round 😄
I was in two minds whether I should nominate the album's titular song - and biggest hit - or go for a lesser-known yet equally deserving tune. Decided the latter in the end, but I'd definitely recommend listening to the full album if one has the time.

A good reminder never to let first impressions=instant judgement, as I actually ended up really enjoying the RMP track, and gets the vote (just slightly) over the colorful PulciPearl.

Tough one, I enjoy both a lot but going with Call It Easy. I will check out the Tatekieto album for sure though.
