Nice, I dreamed I dream made it. vSo did Inhuman. This should be interesting :)

So how is this going to work? 8 polls of 4? Or this song vs. that song and the winner faces the next one on the list? Or what?

sugar kane
chapel hill
cross the breeze
eric`s trip
diamond sea

I hope that it's a point system with all the songs together, that way it won't come out uneven if your two favorite songs go against each other. For example, each person picks 5 songs to keep, and after a day, the 1 with the least picks gets eliminated. I hope that's how they'll do it

Schizophrenia
The Diamond Sea
Brother James
Wish Fufillment
Rain on Tin

Green Light is on that list? Seriously? Wow...
