WEST REGION - Round 2 (#1 YEM v #8 Forbins)

I see the Custy’s comin out of the woodwork to vote on this one.

Conversation: What’s this col forbin song?
A: It’s on the Vegas DVD, it’s kinda stupid like Harpua.
: Well i didn’t vote for Harpua so…

I was just sorta jokin’ around.

Ass!

:slight_smile:

^ Me too. ::slight_smile: Sheesh! And that’s assface to you!

YEM rox my sox!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH, BOOOOOOOOOYYYYYYYYYYY!!!

I warn you that all knowledge seeming innocent and pure becomes a deadly weapon in the hands of avrice and greed…

that mean’s those of you voting for YEM. We all know YEM’s great, but so is Forbins and it has real lyrics taboot. I love them both equally, so I went with the underdog is what it really comes down to.

Forbo!!

There are songs I can see people voting against “YEM”…“Forbin’s” isn’t one of them.

I don’t get IT.

yem will probably cruise to the final four on stature alone.

this is a weird matchup

I’ll probably vote for YEM eventually.

I fucking love Forbin’s though.

MAN!

You’re confusing what is real. Forbins ‘talks’ about reality. YEM IS the reality.

^ The true reality. The song Bug is about YEM. Overrated!

Man, this isn’t fair to Forbin at all! I LOVE Forbin and would it far in the tourney but I can’t vote against YEM which is like the greatest tune ever. Snifff…sorry Colonel…you get an honorable discharge.

In my mind, YEM is to Phish as Dark Star is to the Dead. It’s the quintessential Phish song, and unlike the Dead with Dark Star, they never dropped YEM from rotation. There’s a good reason they didn’t play Forbin’s nearly as much as YEM. Not because it’s a better or worse song–both sides can be argued, and I’d agree with each depending on the day or my mood–but because it has the pure essence of Phish in it.

I would say Tweezer is more Dark Star-ish.

:o

Went w/Forbins.

I couldn’t say which song I like more, honestly.

I love the lyrics to both. Really a lot.

I love both songs’ musical qualities … Forbins doesn’t have any complex written out fugue stuff, but the odd chords of the verses make up for that! They’re really close for me. I’ve always loved Forbin’s.

I’m goin’ w/Forbins.

Two reasons - 1) it’s the underdog and I’m having trouble deciding, and 2) I’m more burned out on YEM, and I’m having trouble deciding.

Where I took Llama over Forbs in the last round… I’m taking Forbs over YEM… Rather hear a Frobs then a Yem at a show. If I could. Please, thank you.

Plus I’d like to see YEM knocked out b/c if YEM wins this thing it was a waste of time. Mostly.

^here here.

Forbo!! is gonna lose, damn it

My sentiments exactly. YEM got my vote though.
