Jacket Bracket Attack Pt. 2: It's Over

[the_wizzard]

Come Closer(is this one even a contest?)

I know...right?  Well I vote for Come Closer....it makes me melt.  And I implore others to do the same.  How else will we make it clear to the boys that we love this song and it deserves a spot in the live rotation?

*stepping off soap box.....now

I might change my vote to Come Closer at some point. It was a really hard decision for me.

It was really hard for me too. I considered changing my vote right after I voted, but I'm gonna stick with How Could I Know?

[easy way]

Come Closer

[c bach]

come closer

[tomEisenbraun]

The eight minutes of washing machine(?) noise in the middle is exquisite. And then the beautiful "how come, how come, how coooooooome"s at the end? Not to mention the final two minutes.

Exquisite.

Cobra.

This is going to be a hard match between Cobra and Oxen.

Indeed. I'm actually going to vote for Oxen, believe it or not.

I think I am, too. I can't forget listening to the two live recordings I had of it over and over and finally getting the chance to pre-order the album and finding out that "How Could I Know??" was the bonus pre-order track. I about shit myself.

I listened that song to death before this, and then it came out, and I knew every word and just sat there in my headphones grinning as I heard the song become everything Jim had intended it to be. I sent him an email (when they still had the band's emails on the site) telling him about the connection I had with the song, having seen it grow up and now hearing it like this was like seeing your son graduate from high school or get married or something. He sent me a note back: "that line about seeing the song graduate was fucking priceless. im in kinkos and i busted out laughing at that shit-it made my day."

Can't hardly turn that down! I think I'm in your boat, Steve!

[xmascriminal]

Come Closer = 5
How Could I Know? = 3

Lowest turnout ever? New match in a couple minutes.

You also didn't count my vote?

Any chance of leaving that one open a little longer? I kind of feel like 9 people is a little too low to call?

[tomEisenbraun]

Gotta be Cobra.

I thought I counted yours, but I might be wrong. I do miss one sometimes. Anyway, I'll leave it open until 10:00, but people did have 23 hours to vote.

[Grateful Chabo]

i didnt vote but i would have voted for come closer.....anyway COBRA ;D

[xmascriminal]

Okay, so the final numbers are:
Come Closer = 6
How Could I Know? = 4

I'm glad Come Closer won. I would have changed my vote if I'd had the time.
