That last matchup was the toughest.  Sorry ACOS.  Had to go with BAI this time.  If ACOS wins, I'm still fine with that.

Several tough ones. #16 was not one of them, that's an easy choice for BAI. #3, #8 and #13 were very hard choices to make, though.

1.   The Glass Prison - I'm not the biggest fan of PMU and TGP is a kickass start to one of DT's best releases.
2.   The Great Debate - Another top track from 6DOIT
3.   Bridges in the Sky - The chorus alone in this song pushes it above The Mirror.
4.   Stream of Consciousness - I love what everyone dislikes about this song
5.   Finally Free - Tough choice but the closing track on Met. 2 is one of their best songs
6.   Home - I love ToT but the riff heavy Home is excellent
7.   Learning to Live - One of their best ever
8.   Illumination Theory - Masterpiece
9.   Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence - No explanation needed
10.   The Count of Tuscany - Rush-influenced and epic. The ending guitar solo is the second best solo on the CD
11.   Take the Time - Another easy choice
12.   Metropolis - My favorite DT song
13.   Space-Dye Vest - This was a tough choice but the mood of this song is perfect
14.   Octavarium - A really tough choice for me but I went with the epic
15.   Voices - Lyrically speaking, one of JPs best moments
16.   A Change of Seasons - My 2nd favorite DT song.

Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Matches 5 and 6 were really tough. Also, as much as I like to see BAI do well, I don't like seeing it leading over ACoS.

What is it with match 16 always being a heavyweight clash? If we still did Match of the Week, that would most certainly be it!

GO BAI!

Same here, and it's a little surprising, but vox populi and all that.

Space Dye Vest vs. Lines in the Sand is tied right now, but it has an extra vote. Revote!  ;)

I can't bear to watch 16... :fingernails

UPDATE: It's held on! Breaking All Illusions has defeated the mighty A Change of Seasons, by just one vote! Is this ACOS's first ever regular season loss? Still, a historic moment, and one that continue's BAI's unstoppable rise to the upper echelon of DT classics.

An with that loss by A Change of Seasons, Octavarium may have just clinched the top spot since it already beat Breaking All Illusions. Can someone say repeat?

With 6 weeks still to run, there's still the chance of Octavarium vs ACOS. I think that's the only chance of it losing its perfect record, unless a remarkable upset happens vs another song.

It would be interesting if ACoS beats 8VM. That would mean the top 3 would all have one loss with Octavarium having beaten Breaking All Illusions, Breaking All Illusions having beaten A Change of Seasons, and A Change of Seasons having beaten Octavarium. We'll see what happens, but I'm rooting for 8VM to win it all.

Yeah, that's not good. I guess the score really is 13-12, but who knows which song was supposed to have the 13. Draw it is  :\

Most match ups add up to 25.  Some only add up to 24 and a couple others are 26. :wtf:

By my count just the one (SDV vs. LITS) adds up to 26. Three of them add up to 24 (TTT vs. BTL, ToT vs. Home, ITNOG vs. IT). Which I assume means two people abstained from voting in one of the matches (or accidentally skipped one), while someone did not follow the instructions correctly (which I don't see how anyone could still mess it up given how clearly DOC has spelled it out).

Maybe someone didn't vote in a match because it was a tie of songs they don't like, and voted on both for another pair of songs they love it.

Maybe someone shouldn't have done that.

My post really seems to indicate guilt, so I'll clarify: it was pure speculation of my part: I didn't do it. :)
