Match-up #2 - Vaccination Scar Vs. Lake Fever
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.

Any reason why they haven't played VS in awhile?

This one shouldn't be close. I don't even know why VS wasn't kicked off this list. Weakest song on IBE.
Lake Fever on the other hand has some great lyrics, and it is an awesome song to hear live.

Lake Fever is probably in my top three favourite hip tunes, Paul's verse is absolutlely amazing. Great lyrics throughout the entire song. I could never appreciate VS, don't know what it is about it. In my humblest of oppinions it was the weakest track off of IBE, which is otherwise a superb album.

I love Lake Fever, but really, I think that sometimes I am like the ONLY person who likes VS. Oh well!

IMissMyLungBob Wrote:Well I am disappointed to see this... I used to really like Lake Fever but I feel it got over-played live (at least at the concerts Ive been to) and on my home stereo, so its lost its touch on me, and on the other hand VS is a diamond in the rough for me, I absolutley love this track and Im sadened that so many people dont like this track 
Its not that I don't like it, its that Lake Fever is definetly one of my favourite songs ever written.

I like VS, don't have anything against it, but I think that Lake Fever is a beautiful song. It grabs me and takes me away.

The allure of LF dwindled down for me as the M@W tour progressed (even before, as it was being played often during shows leading up to the release of M@W). Still a good song, but I sided with VS. As I was out of North America and Europe in 2004-2006, I missed the entire IBE tour. So the IBE songs are still somewhat fresh and mysterious for me.
