Well, I'm surprised nobody chose Under The Sea from The Little Mermaid. Too bad the contest over, it would have been a definite shoe in.

The best way I saw to approach this was in the typical iTunes style and gave them ratings. the results:

crazycanadian .......Audioslave - Be Yourself ***
meltbanana314 .....Pearl Jam - Black ****(4)
mynameis ............Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody *****(5)
Killer_VCS ............The Decline - NOFX **
Strider .................Travis - Side **
Badger .................Monty Python Sings - The Lumberjack Song **
danger_boy_13 ......Bob Marley - Jammin ****(4)
benjamindaines ......Beck - Heck Yes *
johninc .................Ramones - Blitzkreig Bop ****(4)
Robbob91 .............Ben Folds - Beetches Aint Shizz *
Murlyn .................MercyMe - Homesick *
kiwimac ...............Meatloaf - Bat Out of heck ***
iWhat ..................Las Ketchup - Aserejé ****(4)
coach_z ...............Gary Jules & Michael Andrews - Mad World *
PowerBookG4 .......Shaggy - Wasnt Me *
sonofapplepm .......Tori Amos - Caught a Lite Sneeze *
Macman ...............Battlestar America - Metermaid Anthem *

so mynameis will be getting a free song (check your PMs). theres only a few songs that hold a light to that song.

however, I got another free song today, so there are 2 winners. but since there are several songs with 4 stars, i decided to re-evaluate the song based on where the song falls in the bands list of top songs. here are my notes:

>>Bob Marley - Jammin : definitely a good song, but barely in the top 5 of Bob's best songs.

>>Ramones - Blitzkreig Bop: One of the most recognizable punk songs of all time, and only second to Surfin' Bird.

>>Pearl Jam - Black : Pearl Jam. excellent. There are some very good live dub version of this song. And even though most songs on Ten are good, Black is contention for their best song.

>>Las Ketchup - Aserejé : this song is very hip and catchy. Don't like how they switch between English then Spanish. Their other songs are kinda annoying (heavily repetitive beats), but the girls are very hott! :biohazard

so after much deliberation, i decided to give it to meltbanana314 with Black by Pearl Jam. but when i get more free songs, i will give them out next to iWhat, then johninc, followed by danger_boy_13.

and after those, if i have any more codes, I will hold another one of these contests. Thanks everyone, I found some good songs from this.

Thanks, now I have to decide which version to get, there are 4 on iTunes. I'll probably just get the one off Classic Queen.

Awwww, I was on the road while this was going on! I totally would have won by picking Scorpions- Rock You Like A Hurricane. Total shoe-in. Guess it was fair I didn't participate.

Are you sure about that Desolate One, because I thought the same thing about "Under the Sea".

only a handful of pink floyd, doors and a certain bobby mcferrin song tops bohemian rhapsody

I guess I should have tried to win and not actually put the music I listen to now.. you know like The Wall by Pink Floyd, or Silent Lucidity by Queensryche.. I probably would have won then

/me taps nose :biohazard

A week ago I'd have said "Halcyon and On and On" - Orbital, but I ordered the CD so I'll go with "Dirty Laundry" - Don Henley. Of course, neither of those titles are available from the iTunes store. I've been pretty disappointed with the store to date. Everytime I come up with something I'd like to get, they don't have it.

The Wall rocks buts its like 30 bucks everywhere
