Think you may have missed a Wheatus vote there somewhere. Should be 5-2 to them unless I'm hallucinating...

Same as Kolido.

Snow Patrol is for ****.

Johnny Cash I don’t “get”

I HATE Kings of Leon. Hate them.

I find Hey Ya to be very very overrated and beloved.


Just realized i voted against everything rather than for it. Don’t care.

Necro

No H2D didn't vote for either that I can see
