I think it's funny how similar the seeds that made it to the final 4 in this tournament are to the ones that made it in the real one.

NCAA: one 1 seed, one 2 seed, two 3 seeds

FeaturesNCAA: two 1 seeds, one 2 seed, one 3 seed

I voted for The Beginning, too, Ray Davies. I love Action, but when it came down to it, I had to vote for The Beginning.

i guess my prediction of "someway, somehow" going all the way is over now.

and i'm very surprised that "action" beat out "the beginning." i've grown to appreciate "action" more than i previously did...but if the two were people, "action" would be a pirate and "the beginning" would be a ninja (and i think we all know what that means).

I, too, am upset by the results. What's the big deal with "Action"? It can't be rockingness since "The Beginning" features waaaay more energy and it can't be lyrics since "The Beginning" is the only Features song that mentions Peru ph34r.gif .

And "LIAB" losing is just wrong.

It's democracy in action. The action of my voting speaks louder than your complaining words.

I don't think Someway, Somehow is ready for the kind of classic status implied by winning this tournament. I don't remember if I voted for it or not, but it didn't deserve to win. Buffalo Head has the glow of the single from this year, and so it deserves a good run here, though I'm very sad to see Walk You Home end here. I'm not a fan of the Beginning, so I'm glad it's gone, but Action doesn't deserve to win this thing.

See You Thru.

Amazing to me is the fact that few have mourned Walk You Home's passing, since I've remarked in the past how its never been my favorite song and others have rallied behind it in response. I personally voted for all four of the final four, so I'm both happy to see my picks succeed and sad to have to decide between them.

Well, I guess that's a burden off of Bush's shoulders then.

Voting for this ends tonight, and I thought I'd bring it to the top to remind every one.
