BOTS 8 - Round 12- Final Round - 2001

[Mitch Buchannon]

It’s not my song but if you guys vote for Staind over Aerials I might have to get new voters for next season

Staind are trash as musicians and as people

Gonna be honest. One of the matches I didn't care for either song. But I have to try and learn to tolerate SOAD, since my girl likes them.

She can't know i voted against them

I now might regret my vote, as idk anything about them other than I disliked that song like .1% less

No U

 

[Professor Booty]

I wish I was make believe
I wouldn’t have to work

 

[Chris]

I don't actually rate SOAD that high myself but their top songs, Aerials included, are like just peak for me, it's a weird dichotomy

 

[Hosferatu]

I enjoy the music of both SOAD and Staind quite a bit.

[Jimmy King]

Other songs I considered and my original pick was sniped from me.

 

[Loochblade]

I already said it, but just one more time, since it's the last round and all.

Thank you for running it, Booty. Thank you so very much. ...and thank you everyone who participated and especially everyone pulling through. As always it's been such a treat to listen to such a variety of songs and discovering new goodies through all of you. May BOTS live forever.

 

[Chris]

My first choices were Pyramid Song by Radiohead and Someday by the Strokes but I tried to mix it up since I've picked both of those already this run

 

[O-Blaze]

I'll post my second choice afterwards. If I do it now, it will give away what mine is.

 

[Loochblade]

I didn't have a second choice. I knew which one I wanted the moment I saw the year and actually set my alarm to make sure I'm awake for when we could send our songs in, just so I have the best possible chance to end this season with it.

The song stuck with me for 24 years now and will continue to do so. It's my personal favorite song of that artist and it's one of only a handful of Singles I actually bought this century. Doesn't matter if it wins or not, it's such a great moment for me to finish a BOTS season with it.
