Well, we again have a tie; Courage, Hundredth and Fully all tied in Round 4 so we'll have a 24 hour playdown.
Vote for the song you believe is weakest between these three and we will eliminated the two that have the most votes after 24 hours.
Voting will end at 11:15am Eastern on Saturday.
Happy voting,
Shane

I don't wanna play this game anymore. It's too painful.

Shit, I missed the last round, after checking in faithfully for several preceding days! i NEVER would have voted 'Locked' out, I'll tell you that much. And I don't understand placing the title track or the mediocre 'Courage' ahead of it. This board is nuts!!! :x :x :x :x

You bastards. Courage is one of the best examples of the five members firing on all cylinders. Meridian is 100% GD...instrumentally it has nothing on Courage. NOTHING!
These polls will be the death of this group! :twisted:

'Courage' is overrated. It's neither musically nor lyrically especially interesting, by Hip standards. I mean, it's all right; but it has none of the drive of the crazy guitar work in 'Meridian,' nor the lyrical virtuosity; it lacks the chugging interplay and harrowing intensity of 'Locked;' and none of the emotional poignancy of 'Pigeon.' I'd put it in the bottom third of FC tracks, myself, definitely on the tier above the dreck ('We'll Go Too,' 'Lionized') but no more than that.
