All right, the polls are open until midnight tonight, people! :P

The one that wins, of course, will get the 8th seed in the East Region. Here's what the prelims have yielded:

or

1. That's a toughie. But I'm gonna have to go with the Ween song.
"Wind Beneath My Wings" is certainly gag-inducing, but "Push The Little Daisies" has absolutely NO musical value whatsoever.

4. All I can say is..
I can't believe the song I put in didn't make it in the finals.
You people really like "Don't worry, be happy"?
Yikes...

8. Ween v. Midler is no choice at all for me.
Ween is one of those bands either you "get" and you love them, or you don't "get" them and you hate them. I love them.

"Wind Beneath My Wings" is contemptable glurge. Hello, 8th spot.

Too many people were nominating and I wasn't getting enough seconds.

13. I hate to say it, but "You're Having My Baby" should be on that list.

I like the band but I cannot stand this song! It makes my ears bleed.
