Music of the Year 2000: Round 1 Week 3
Music of the Year 2000: Round 1 Week 3
Note: the previous topic is still open for a couple hours.
The rules are simple: vote for your favorite in each match below. The winner will move to the next round. The deadline to vote is Sunday, November 13th at 8 PM CST. Note: I have divided the tournaments into groups of 16 based on the acclaimed music list; that way, lesser known works have a better chance to stand out, instead of facing off against the strongest. That might lead to a weaker final match, but think of it more as a collection of smaller tournaments celebrating different levels of acclaim. I am also going to do the two brackets inverse of each other; the most acclaimed albums with the least acclaimed songs, etc. That way, there's a balance of how much new material you will be expected to listen to, assuming more people are familiar with the more acclaimed works.

Re: Music of the Year 2000: Round 1 Week 3
Albums:
Johnny Cash - American III: Solitary Man (4.5)
vs.
Koji Kondo - The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask Original Soundtrack (0.5)
I've always liked how the Man in Black covers some of my favourite songs
The Cure - Bloodflowers
vs.
Cat Power - The Covers Record
First listen for these two (very surprising as I am a big Cure fan), Robert Smith edges it with an attempt to renew Disintegration's success. Cat Power is original, but ultimately very depressing
Doves - Lost Souls (4.5)
vs.
Thomas Newman - American Beauty (4.0)
Lost Souls is a keeper. One of the top 10 for 2000, no doubt. Excellent surprise for American Beauty's OST, although I cannot help but think I heard this recurring melody somewhere else. It was instantly familiar.
Erykah Badu - Mama's Gun
vs.
The Delgados - The Great Eastern (4.5)
Another fave in the Scots - I love this album, the songs are soaring but retain a poppy structure.

Cat Power - The Covers Record
Songs:
Air - Playground Love
Sugababes - Overload
M.O.P. - Ante Up (note that I'm voting for the version with Busta Rhymes, Teflon and Remi Martin, some lists having cited specifically this version. And well, the original is fun but the remix is seriously insane, like an unstoppable freight train running all over you
D'Angelo - Untitled (How Does It Feel)
Phoenix - Too Young (close one, but Grandaddy is a band that rarely fully delivers for me, strangely given its genre and cult status. He's Simple, He's Dumb, He's the Pilot would have won though. Don't river Too Young on French radio, unlike the 2 Phoenix songs ranked above it that were on relatively heavy rotation for a rock band)
Moloko - The Time is Now (really like both songs, nice change from the more usual genres in AM)
