Okay boys and girls, here we have 64 showtunes, from some of our favorite musicals, which will be pitted against one another, Match by Match, Round by Round, weeding them all out until they get to the FINAL MATCH, which will have our two favorite showtunes face against one another to see which one emerges as Grand Champion of our latest Rock Wars!
As always, this TOC should be voted using a very simple criteria, which song do YOU like more, which do YOU feel you would rather listen to, and which would YOU say is ultimately more deserving to move on. Easy. :)
Pretty basic really. Songs are matched up, you all vote on the one you like more, the winner goes to the Next Round, and we do this over and over again until the Rounds are Over. I do ask that you all give objective opinions and votes here, listening to all songs and arguments here within this TOC with an open mind, beginning to end, and base your honest votes from that.
You know the drill by now, but since I’m running this for the boss I’ll add his caveat - as always we ask that you please listen to each song again with each new match before voting. Thanks all. :)
So without further adieu, let’s get started with the latest match of many matches to come, in HCRs latest Rock Wars, Favorite Showtune!
I now give you:
