Description

You know the drill.

Why did I come here expecting to see a proof of why metamorphic rock is better than igneous rock?

-->
@Castin

Please vote if Rock is to your taste.

This is bullshit, 7 point votebomb is out of order, pls counter it someone

@WaterPhoenix
@A-R-O-S-E

The time to vote is here. The time to listen to music has arrived.

please describe why you loved/hated what you did if you can.

-->
@oromagi

Pls vote if you have time.

@Nemiroff

Thabks for the vote, I agree ot is on the edge of Rock genre. I dont get the disproportionate 7-poijt vote from the first voter though

Dibs on the next rock battle

-->
@Vader

Would be interested in your vote here if Rock pleases you at all.

-->
@Trent0405

Thabks for the feedback, I agree with most of it. Rock artists do indeed enunciate words strangely.

-->
@RationalMadman

I enjoyed this battle and hope you did too.

-->
@RationalMadman

I could have done it that way, though it probably would have favored Virt more if I did. Round-by-round is just simpler for my purposes.

-->
@whiteflame

Thanks for proportionally voting, although I don't understand this round-by-round analysis of what is really a 5 v 5 debate, where quality should be the scaling.

Wtf at my typos... Anyway, congrats on the win Virtuoso. I don't agree with it, nor do I regret in engaging in this. I have learned more about who votes on these and who has what taste. The 'ecosystem' of voters on music has definitely changed, had we had this debate months ago with the same songs, I predict I'd win.

@whiteflame

Thanks for the vote

@RationalMadman

Well I know that, but I know nothing about rock, which is why I allowed it since you were ok with it

@RationalMadman

"Disregarding something as rock is up to tje voter, not song poster. Ita obcious you like softer music, he abused the edges of the genre to achieve that. I was apoealing to truer rock fans or people seeking rock in its raw intense form."

I disagree here. Soft rock is fair game. I personally love soft rock, acoustic rock, and hard rock.

You guys strike me as types who may like Rock.

@Speedrace

Perhaps you guys would like this, not sure what your taste is in rock, but I am honestly proud of my selection in this. I loved Rock, had a real emo phase (in my DDO days was still somewhat in the phase), Rock understands anger and sadness like no other genre in my opinion.

Though that would make an interesting trap debate

-->
@Trent0405

rofl

ohhhhh, I thought you were talking about rocks in the ground.

-->
@RationalMadman

Feel free to fix that in the next round

I forgot to post the song name for R1, it's Pain by TDG

Amazon URL is wrong too, damn.

-->
@RationalMadman

Yes, metal would be acceptable, though pop would be left up to the voters to decide.

-->
@David

can it move into metal and pop? I'm not crystal clear on what is NOT rock in and around the genre.
