Match-up #15 - Sherpa Vs. Escape Is At Hand For The Travellin' Man
I ask you to listen to the two songs in the match-up Back to Back, and consider the lyrics of the song. Feel free to post an unbiased analysis of both songs in this thread, but please refrain from cheerleading or making predictions for your favourites.
As always, you can hear both songs played back to back streaming online at http://www.power97.com at 11PM CST, 12AM EST.

Good match up. This is going to be a tight one.
Re: Match up - #15 - sean.bonner - 03-30-2009
Sherpa is one of my all time favourites.
Its in my top 10 hip songs according to play count.
Such a shame for it then that Escape is my second favourite.

close, I ike both.......
Re: Match up - #15 - EPenguin10 - 03-30-2009
Sherpa is a top 5 hip song for me, along with Thugs, and chances are they both don't advance past the first round. I reckon there are too many Escape fans on the base for Sherpa to take this.

C'mon! This year is the year of Escape!

There's been something about Phantom Power as of late that, I don't know, maybe I just didn't get 10 years ago. In the past 4 months or so, PP has had more spins than in the past 5 years, and Escape is one of those tunes that really helps complete an album.
I don't think Sherpa has a chance... (sorry Sherpa fans!!!)

Had to go for Sherpa. This was tough. I love the imagery in Sherpa's lyrics and the mood the guitars set. Escape is a great song, though, and will probably win.

I feel damn bad for Sherpa. It should have made it quite far.
