Talking heads. Easy choice for me. I don't like Cure too much. It's been awhile since I really fell hard for Talking Heads. They have one of the greatest discographies of all time in terms of consistency. I mean "77", "More Songs About Buildings and Food", "Fear of Music", "REMAIN IN LIGHT", "The Name Of This Band Is Talking Heads" are all great!
"Stop Making Sense" is one of the greatest films ever.
Yeah, I would be okay with Wire over Talking Heads in the final. _________________ -Ryan

Talking Heads are one of the greatest bands ever in so many ways.
Also, it's awkward to say "I listened to Pornography" in front of your parents.

Knew this would be tough. The love for David Byrne is stronger than Robert Smith.
I think both are pioneer of the post-punk movement in their respective countries. I love The Cure's music and will continue to do so.

With the way the voting is at the moment, it is a hard road ahead for The Cure. But hopefully the tables will turn.

Talking Heads are currently in my top 3 bands of all time (tied with Arcade Fire and Flaming Lips).
They easily win for me in a PPNW tourney.

It was too hard so I picked my two favourite songs:
Psycho Killer v.s. Friday I'm In Love
The Cure win.
