We must have been in the process of posting this match-up at the same time. I deleted the other one, the voting results were the same as in this one at the time of deletion.

Fully is one of the few songs I always hope for when I see them live. The rising climax and subsequent let down at the end always leaves me blown away.

This one was very tough. Two of my favorites, two five-star songs (iTunes ratings), great hooks, great lyrics. Had to go with FC, but it was tough.

I had a friend and Hip fan ask me a while ago to recommend some Hip songs that he could give to a friend of his to introduce her to the Hip. I ended up giving him 2 lists...the first was my list, the 2nd was a list that most casual Hip fans would likely pick. Mine included songs like Vapour Trails, The Bear, Eldorodo, Don't Wake Daddy, etc, and the other had obvious favorites like Blow, NOIS, Little Bones, etc.
I think on the Hipbase you will likely find people who may be more inclined to lean towards the less popular songs simply because we hear them often where as the casual fan probably doesn't. Many of us have also been to multiple Hip shows and as a result we often wish for the lesser known songs to be played since we have heard the popular ones many times over.

Not always true.
I'd say Locked In The Trunk Of A Car is one of my all time favourites, and the only time I could see voting against it is...
well.
You know.

I f'd up...
I voted for BAHD instead of FC on this post. The other post had my correct vote. I PM'd a moderator, but if it can't be changed it's no biggie.
Sorry. :oops:
