To me the big surprises are Miracle Drug and Yahweh. I'm glad I didn't place any wagers.
 
its amazing Sicmitoyo got no recogniiton from anyone. One must have taken control of the track 3 slot in the competition. What was with Vertigo at number 13? Who likes the Playboy Mansion as the BEST:banghead: :banghead: song. Mercy isn't on any album yet. How do you know its last. Is this the IMAGINARY album:scratch:


Personally I would have picked Helter Skelter as the best opening track. :drool:
 
Sicmitoyo got about as much recognition as you could expect, given the comp. It was I who picked Playboy Mansion for No. 9. And since you asked, Vertigo tied for last with Helter Skelter (0).
