This is meant to provide a bit of quick fun here and there, kinda like the Word Association thread. It works like this:
I'll post the titles of two Tull songs. The next person who comes along will choose which of those two songs he likes better and put it up against a new tune. The third person will pick from the two posted by the second person and put the winning track against another new one, and so on.
So, say I post My Sunday Feeling and Aqualung. Perhaps maddogfagin comes along and chooses My Sunday Feeling and puts it against With You There to Help Me. Then nonrabbit joins the fun and chooses With You There to Help Me and puts it against Strange Avenues. Steelmonkey finds the thread and picks Strange Avenues and puts it against Budapest, and so on.
All you really need to post are the song you like better from the previous post and a new song for it to face, but comments on the matchups and other people's picks are welcome, of course.
Let's see how it goes. Here's the first match:
Queen and Country
We Used to Know

Excellent idea for a thread non's getting in before the DOG!! We Used to Know Reasons for Waiting It's tricky cause the brain (cell - singular) starts thinking of songs that are associated with each other either by album or sound.

I'm throwing out Baker St. Muse and re-booting the game because BSM belongs in it's own category with only TAAB and APP and, therefore, cannot be kbocked off the perch by any other songs, right?

Man, Acres Wild is my favorite Tull song so I'm tempted to throw some lightweight tune at it... but instead I'll pit it against a beast.

rule change: 3 is okay instead of two if the three choices are logically related. Don't you read the fine print ?

Are we allowed to repeat a song if it's the first thing that comes into your head or is it a more academic exercise?
