Voting against my winner guess. I thought of "They Are Night Zombies" which I like even more (but "The Cross" would still have won I think).

8. Michael Jackson - Baby Be Mine
vs.
2. Talking Heads - Listening Wind

7. Joy Division - Heart and Soul
vs.
6. Pixies - Gouge Away

11. Patti Smith - Birdland
vs.
10. Stevie Wonder - Too High

12. Joni Mitchell - Court and Spark
vs.
5. Lou Reed - The Bed

4. Bjork - Unravel
vs.
1. Sigur Ros - Flugufrelsarinn

16. Animal Collective - In the Flowers
vs.
15. Nas - Memory Lane (Sittin' in da Park)

14. Daft Punk - Voyager
vs.
13. Prince - Lady Cab Driver

Matchups 1, 2, 3 and 6 would have been a perfect quarterfinal. AM's top 128 albums (matchups 1-4) still have a lot to offer in this game!
