Typing to Reach You Posted Mon 11 Jun, 2007 2:54 PM |
UPDATE: This Round Has Now Closed! Thanks for all participation.
Welcome one and all to Travis Song Showdown. I'll be putting all Song Showdown Rounds here in the Travis section, so keep checking back every day or two for more voting!
Bellow are listed a total of 31 separate battles, each between two songs. Your objective is simple - choose which on wins. This means you'll have, for this round, a list of 31 songs to give me. For each victor, I'll give a point on my all-knowing master tally table. 
The winners go on to round two...etc...until we have a winner!
For the song pairing, the fairest way I could think of was to bunch the 62 songs onto a playlist, hit randomise, and have them paired off that way - so that's what I've done. As a result, there may be some easy decisions, and there may be some painfully difficult decisions. But this is a ruthless game! There can only be one winner, so make sure you're favourite is the one that survives to the end.
The songs are all album tracks. I've left out Perfect Heaven Space 'cos that's only on some albums.  I was 50/50 whether to include The Distance, but fate decided it would go on the list - as I needed an even number of songs lol. Um...next round when I have 31 songs could be tricky, but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it. =p
Please all participate! The more people the more fun, and it also makes the results more accurate at the end of the day. Cheers.
