Match-up #32 - Escape Is At Hand Vs. Boots Or Hearts
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.

Easiest choice for me yet.

It really hurts my heart to choose Escape, but just have to. Boots or Hearts is one of my top five Hip tunes, but I'm afraid that Escape is above it. This has been the most painful decision of the Hip 64 for me.

Mr. Esthete: I'm picking Escape on this one. Do we actually agree for once?

I gave Boots a pity vote on this one.

"you yelled in my ear this music speaks to me"
This line sums the whole song up.
Escape for me.

Not that this decision was particularily hard for me, but I'm a bit amazed at the landslide. I guess I figured the high-energy, mass-appeal of the Boots would win out. But, I guess like most others, I think Escape is legitimately superior.
