With the end of Round 2, we see Fly and Luv(sic) being eliminated.

Eliminated Round 1

Luv(sic)

Vote for the song you believe to be the weakest on World Container and after 48 hours, we will remove the two songs that have the most votes. As before, a song must have at least 10% of the vote in order to be removed otherwise it will carry forward into the following round.

The poll will end Sunday at 10:15am Eastern.

Happy voting!

Who's gonna win? I can smell a rat, when it's all rat.

Glad that WC hung on another round. Look forward to some more bashing of it.

I voted Rink. Just never really done it for me. The "Oh to join the rush" part is a little to earnest for me. And the talky part was done better on Love is a First.

Voted Rink but it was more or less random as I love all six of these songs pretty equally. The hockey references (rink/dekes/join the rush/season swells) are equal parts charming and pedantic.

I voted for it, too, but there wasn't much rhyme or reason for it. I don't live the studio version of "Rink," but it also opened more Hip shows (7, I think) I saw than any other song. I'll always associate it with the 2006/07 tour.

Tough choice here. I love all these songs. I am a self-confessed WC-fanboy though -- I even shed a small tear when Pretend got aggressively euthanized in round 1.

I'm a bit surprised 'Rink' isn't getting more love. I have some problems with it, but I'd have expected that to be an obvious finalist or near-finalist. Explain.

Certainly I find it surprising that it's losing to the forgettable 'Yer Not the Ocean,' a song with an unusually weak lyrical conceit IMHO, and which expires once Rock's trite keyboards come in. An inoffensive but basically bland cut, I feel. 'Rink' is not bland and is about something real.

What's with all the votes for Rink? You people have lost your freakin' minds.

And 8 votes for Kids already? Blasphemy!
