As long as All I Need makes it through, I'm fine with the results.

Voted Reckoner because I find it very, very bland.
 
I'm okay with any of these 3 going through, but I hope Weird Fishes and All I Need make it.
 
All I Need isn't good. It's a shame I'm the only one who has voted for it.

I am a huge Reckoner fan but I think Arpeggi is the better of the two, esp since I have yet to hear a good version of Reckoner live while the recent Arpeggi live versions are stunning.

Who cares about live performances? We're not judging them, we're judging the studio recordings.

COME ON PEOPLE, VOTE ARPEGGI!

I know but in a tight decision that's what it came down to for me. For me it comes down to which is the better song, not the better recording, and Reckoner's weakness is revealed in its live performance. :madspit:

Give me a break. They're my 3 favorite songs on the record. I had to choose. :grumpy:

you chose... poorly...
 
And because you're all being so mean despite my saying how much I actually love Reckoner, it confims I made the right choice.
 
Nobody was being mean. :shrug:

If I were voting based entirely on the songs, I'd vote for All I Need in an instant. But I would rather Weird Fishes go through and Reckoner lose than to vote for All I Need and have Arpeggi get the boot. So I'm going to save my vote to see if it's needed to ensure Weird Fishes doesn't lose. If it's okay, I'll vote All I Need. :up:

But I'm listening to All I Need as I type this, and actually paying attention. It's awesome (I usually gloss over it while recovering from the majesty of Weird Fishes), and this listen just made up my mind for me. Reckoner gets my vote.

I wasn't being mean, I always use :grumpy: to express good-natured disagreement. I definitely agree that it's hard to pick between these three songs - they're all awesome. I just think Reckoner's better. :wink:
