Poptimism may have lost the battle, but it will win the war. This tally is ](*,), but it wasn't long ago that E•MO•TION was at 70/100 and outside the top 5000. BEA's collective taste has definitely improved in the last few years.

I've come around to Pop music much more over the years, but I still don't hear anything that makes Carly stand out so much from her contemporaries.

A Moon Shaped Pool came out during a dark period of my life and has grown to become arguably my favorite album ever. So it's an easy vote for what I consider maybe the best song left in the tournament.

I guess this is as good a place as any to bring this question up. Would "True Love Waits" have been better if it were never put on the album, and still in the form that it was performed live?

Do we also want to mention that these might be the most diametrically opposed loved songs that could've have ever come into contact with one another?

"Don't leave"

vs.

"Run Away With Me"

lol

Yeah, I'm likely riding the White Girl Tinder classic "RAWM" through the rest of the tournament, there are still plenty of songs off of Moon-Shaped Pool that would've at least made me hesitate but True Love Waits is not one of them. Carly

I'm not the biggest Run Away With Me fan either, but I like it. True Love Waits is just a meh song off of meh Radiohead album, and I know that's blasphemous to some but whatever. Vote for CRJ

I don't really care that much about True Love Waits, but as I've established, I can't stand Come Away With Me.
