-------------------------------------

Yes you can vote for your own song, but each person only votes once.

I'm voting for Cat's in the Cradle.


-------------------

13 entrants means a 26k prize. So let the voting begin!
Im keeping track I'll post the results in the end. Mine doesn't have a shot just becuase a lot of people don't know it, and instead of actually listening to the songs and deciding I think it might turn into
"OMGz th4t s0ng r0x0rz"

Oh well, those are both great songs anyway.

Think I would have been better off picking Scars by Papa Roach instead of Cat's in the Cradle?

hiding: ive found the same thing they take no time to listen to the songs they just pick ones that theyve heard before x]
I vote Redemption song. I didnt click the link, but if that is any other version then Bob Marley I retract my vote and switch it to November Rain (GandR all the way)

In the end won. How pathetic, I'm definately not doing another one of these. People don't actually care about the qualities found in the music, it's just "OMG me likez dat song!!!11oneone!1"

The only decent votes were near the end...

Anyway, I'll send the prize now.
I'm sorry if I offended you, but you even admitted that there were more emotional songs on the list. Just because a song is emotional to you, doesn't mean it's in emotional song.

And no I'm not bitchy because I lost. If winds of change or adagio for strings or mad world had gotten it I would have been very pleased.

EDIT: Can't believe nobody picked stairway to heaven, just realized that. It would have won for sure.
A couple days of bump can't hurt.

Hiding : there's no reason for you to give up on this idea quite yet. It's just the voting system that's flawed, agreed ?

...so that's the only thing that needs to be changed in future : just replace all of the choices with numbers, or something, linked to the youtube vids. That way more people would actually click all of the links before voting, and maybe listen to all of the songs, too.

That's hardly a perfect solution.. but the point that i'm making is that with a couple of tweaks, this event could work quite nicely.
