Match-up #41 - Escape Is At Hand For The Travellin' Man Vs. It's A Good Life If You Don't Weaken
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.

WOW this one was for me the toughest decision of all the match ups I have voted on! Two of The Hip's best tunes. I was swayed mostly by the fact I have not seen Escape played live before.

I saw them perform Weaken live at the Commodore in Vancouver on the WC tour and for me it was possibly the best live performance of any song from any band I have ever seen in my life. Still gives me goosebumps thinking about it, cheesy as that sounds. :mrgreen:

Tough ass choice. Its a Good life if you dont weaken, was my grad quote... But escape gives me goosebumps every time


Re: Match Up - #41 - sean.bonner - 04-25-2009

I voted for Escape because it is the better song.
It's a fact.

Surprisingly, Escape didn't get the reception I thought it would at last night's show.
Brilliant song and was awesome in the Encore yet the crowd really didn't seem that in to it.

It surprised me.

It would have done if I was there. Wink

I voted for Escape. Funnily enough.
