Obviously voting Dylan, but I really can't look, the score is way too painful.

No obvious choice here for me. I listened to Murder Most Foul a bit last year, but Hard Drive only once, in the context of the album, until this tourney. However while this Dylan song is startimg to tire on me a bit, Hard Drive is becoming more appealing each listen. Think I'm going to go with Cassandra.

Hard Drive is one of the better songs left in the tournament if not flawless, but it gets the edge over another sweeping Dylan track

Come on guys, by now Dylan knows how long a track should be.

damn. I have to admit that as a Bob Dylan fan it is tough voting against the man. I mean, I'd take a bullet for him. I love him muchly. But... from the day I heard Murder Most Foul when it released to rapturous applause to now... I don't get the hype. It's a long and at times (fleetingly) transcendent poetic ruminative track. But most of its run time it kind of loses me and its way too long. Hard Drive on the other hand is a great and unique gem. Don't love it, but every time I hear it I feel like I am put under its spell and I am glad I heard it. The spoken word is sometimes a little cringey to me. But the lyrics are grteat and the horn is cool and the whole thing kicks ass.

HARD DRIVE gets my vote. sorry, bob

I honestly can't believe that "Paprika" lost, tough 1st round matchup. Agreed that Bob is too long. Honestly if "Paprika" was up against my nom, it would've been a much tougher choice

I went with Murder Most Foul, which I played for the birdman of Alcatraz.

Both tracks are very much focused on the story telling but I liked Hard Drive best.

Me too. Unfortunately I like Murder Most Foul less and less with every listen, it's just too long. Still a very good song, but not on Cassandra Jenkins level.
