Voting Is Now Closed!
Welcome to Song Showdown - The B-Sides!
Firstly, Happy New Year! I hope you all have a good'n - 'tis sure to be a good year for Travis. 
Now, something I usually do in the first round of Showdowns (for whatever reason I didn't last time), is I start with a group knockout stage. This allows weaker tracks to be filtered out earlier on, rather than leaving it down to chance of how songs pair up. Of course there's still not total freedom of choice, as, in typical showdown fashion, there are bound to be some groups that prompt harder decisions than others! I’d also like to point out that these were all mixed in to groups completely randomly. Well… mostly. After being told that Say Hello wasn’t technically a b-side, I took it out and that required me to switch a song around, but apart from that! :p
So, your first task. From each group you must choose 2 tracks to be knocked out - i.e. pick your two least favourite tracks from each group.
Group A

pssst...hey, guys? We do kinda need a few votes here. 'Cos it is, like, a vote. Half a dozen at least to proceed methinks. Or it's gonna be finished before it's even started. Gowan peeps, bite the bullet. The first one's the longest, don't worry. 
And if there are any problems with it, or if you have any suggestions, I'd appreciate the feedback. |
