Circus, by a landslide (6-1).  Man, I really could not have guessed that Circus would have won this thing when it started.  I mean I love it and all, but...anyway, yay Circus.  Way to go Circus.  Congratulations, Circus, 2002 Champion of Features songs.  Chairman Rory Daigle will now present the trophy.  Sportscaster: 'Great game, Circus, congratulations.  What's next?'  Circus: 'I'm going to Disneyland!'

On a more serious note, thanks to everyone who participated.  If you would like to share which song you think should have won this tournament, feel free.  I, for one, was rooting for 'Don't Lie to Me' 'Harold' 'Temporary Blues' and 'Leave It All Behind'. If I had to pick just one, it would probably be 'Leave It All Behind'.

This tournament was one of the most brilliant things to ever happen on the board, cheers to Ms. Carroll.
An open frame in the 10th, I WAS ROBBED!

Agreed. The tournament was a great idea!

However, I'm quite surprised at the outcome. If I had to pick the perennial Features song, I would have chosen 'Thursday.' Yes, we're all tired of it, but I think it most closely represents who the Features are. I'm starting to realize, though, that I perceive them quite differently than the rest of you.

Yes, Tom uses them as the focal point for his gay fantasies.

I was pushing for 33 1/3, See You Thru, Leave It All Behind or Circus, so one of my four favorites made it.

As for the perennial song, I lean towards Dark Room.
