So much for my early 5-0 lead.

So much for my early 5-0 lead.

In round 20, KN picked the Goo Goo Dolls and you picked Gogol Bordello (I wonder if they ever covered "Gypsys, Tramps and Thieves"... probably not)... you played it honest, but you cannot have expected lots of votes especially when going head to head with an "America's Top 40" kind of list like this one. Personally, though, I wouldn't trade your number 2 or 6 pick for KN's entire list.

This should be played in the parking lot of every single Kings game... and at half time.

I was mystified when I was up 5-0, to be honest. No biggie. I'm sure KN's list is honest too. But the Goo Goo Dolls couldn't be a bigger bunch of sell outs

...and Gogol Bordello couldn't be more opposite.

Look at the number 26 pick: Matchbox 20 vs the Dead Kennedys.

Biggest problem with the DKs is I can't even post my favorite songs here.

America's Top 40? Yeah I love bands like MB20 and the Goo Goo Dolls. But if I were aiming for a list of Mainstream America's Darlings, I wouldn't have included Wailing Souls, Underoath, Ray LaMontagne, Jimmy Cliff, The Roots or David Gray.

I would disagree with David Gray, but those five of your thirty picks are not top 40 stuff.

Don't forget Robert Randolph, Anberlin, Zimmer or The Mavericks.

Well barring late night heroics my run of success is over. Congrats to KN for being the ultimate loser. Or something?
