A nice "Mid-Major" to start things off this year. Very different songs, and it is hard for me to pick one, but I'm going with 50 MC.

This was tough for me, I love the lyrics on Its A Good Life, but on the whole 50 MC for me.

It'll be a good life if you vote for it...
Haha....nah
But it was my vote. Lyrics are very compelling. And that melody.

I've always had a soft spot for Good Life. I'm really happy this is starting up again.

I may be kind of biased because I absolutely love IVL, but on top of that I think that good life is just a better overall song lyrically and musically. The finger patterns in it are amazing, I still can't pick up on all the little intricities when playing it.

hey is there any way we could get a list of the contenders this year as decided by the relegation round voting?
Or is it kind of a wait and see thing?
Also, is there any changes to the structure of the tournament? Is last year's champ being challenged by this year's winner? etc.

I will not give up. My face is set,my gait is fast,my goal is heaven,my road is narrow,my way is rough,my companions are few,my guide is reliable,my mission is clear. I cannot be bought,compromised,detoured,lured away,turned back,diluted or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice,hesitate in the presence of adversity,negotiate at the table of the enemy,ponder at the pool of popularity,or meander in the maze of mediocrity. I will not give up,shut up or slow down....Blessed Be!

Last year, I might have voted for IAGLIYDW, but since, 50 has really grown on me. Just a sweet song to rock out to.

Both have great lyrics, I love the story and the tribute to Bill Barilko. 50 definitely rocks harder, but good life has this incredible ability to make me lose myself in the music. On this night I'm gonna have to go with good life.
