Because I've been getting reports of people who either wanted to change their mind, or people who failed to vote, so I'll cast this one more time.
1 day, this time.
VOTE!
P.S. Oh and you'll have the option to change your vote
Thank you very much for this :)
straight flush would of worked GREAT had it been MELLLLLOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW. i mean jeez, did we need the screaming n' the metal guitars? i think that killed the song for me. sorry.
These are some of my favorite songs on the album :'(
Yeah I wish it hadnt'a come down to these two this early, but whatev..I did what I thought was best, and voted accordingly.
Reminds me a tad bit of the 2000 election, ha.

Well, think about it this way..the people that were voting for other songs that they hated more, are now voting for one of these, which changes the dynamics, muchly.
I don't understand this tie-breaker. But all in good fun anyway.

That's what makes it for me actually. The dynamic contrast between the earlier, more constrained and mellow sections, and the later bits.

I agree completely. In fact, when I first Straight Flush, back when it was only considered a demo, I thought the song was
too mellow and actually didn't listen to it in its entirety. However, when I finished listening to the entire song, I realized how good it was.

i mean, it was a great demo, and i was looking forward to it on the album. i just wonder at one point in the studio did they just go "man we need to just SCREAM and crank the gee-tars WAY UP!" so frustrating to see something that was once great get turned into........that.

Actually, the album version is the demo version with backing vocal overdubs. The differences are probably in your head...

straight flush on the record is the demo with a few vocal overdubs. i wonder is the demo with strings added at the end.
Don't forget Battlescars generally relies on screaming and metal guitars.

Maybe he only listened to the beginning of it as I first did :-\

actually that song is easily in my bottom 3 songs off RRp3. yes i went THERE too......
Oh no you didn't. :kim:
I think that the screaming, if you will, in Battlescars, Straight Flush, Natalie Portman (WHAT CAN I DO?!?), etc. simply add the emotions brought forth in these songs. Ozma doesn't belt out every single lyric, just the occasional ones for emphasis. I personally don't consider the guitars to be metal. To me, metal music doesn't have any soul to it, something that Ozma's playing is full of.
