ALlright after... some delay, the grand finale is finally up! Have fun voting and thanks for all those who have held on through to the end

And for the second half of the 2010s I'm offering to hand over the reins, since I'm working 6 days a week and my dumbass has run the past like 27 song tournaments here and I know that obviously thanks to the Pan-d we have people antsy for something to do, so preferably if even two would want to do it that'd be great with the only thing I ask is to keep the nominations pretty close to 64 (ie three to each person) and relatively timely since I know Baystate might still want to do his annual album tournament. If nobody's willing I might have to delay it till further notice.

I was kinda hoping Dance Yrself Clean would make it to the semifinals at least, partially because it's a great song and partially because it's funny how much people on this forum seem to hate it, but this is an easy win for Grimes. I mean, I'm gonna be voting for Grimes. It probably wasn't gonna make it any further regardless, it's only barely made it so far. The only song I'd struggle with voting Oblivion over that's left in this tournament would be Video Games. If the final ends up between those two, I don't know which way I'm gonna vote.

That's actually a nice final 8. 2 big hits (212 and Video Games), one of the best pop songs (Oblivion), one of the best hip hop songs (Thuggin), 2 great folk tunes, indie dance classic and a surprise in Stoned & Starving, which is a blast. Could be a bit more diverse, but I like it.

Aight, we're on to the bracket finals. Should be fun to see what happens, all different captains going against one another, may have a good idea what happens but there's always room for surprises. Anyways will get the final matchups up tomorrow, will be a special 5-day voting period since it's being done in one sitting. Again much love for all those who have stuck with the games, cutting this tournament in(to) hal(ves) have proven to be a far more manageable and less time-consuming affair.

Jased God

Sun Kil Moon carissa (Ledzep)
Lana Del Rey video games (revolver94)

Drop the Hand

Freddie Gibbs/Madlib thuggin' (Skinny)
Joanna Newsom good intentions paving company (Saltfish)

Post-Ironic Sort of Way

Parquet Courts stoned and starving (JimmyDread)
Azaelia Banks 212 (Norman Bates)

Different

Grimes oblivion (Tilly)
LCD Soundsystem dance yrself clean (Exist-en-Ciel)

Also congrats Norman and travelful, y’all still got 2 songs in!

Cheers! To be honest Skinny had nominated '212' first then swapped it, I just picked it up. Very pleasantly surprised with how '50 Cent' has fared.

Honestly this is a pretty decent set of tracks. Obviously I'd prefer Pusha or Women winning in previous rounds, but they lost to worthy opponents. Apart from maybe Video Games there really isn't a track here I could say I dislike.

booo!!!! 😜 😜

but yes agreed we've got some good songs here
