Default Battle Of Our Music

There is one thing that everyone here has in common and that is our love of the Mavs, after that, from political views to taste in music, we have a very wide range of feelings and beliefs.

I thought we could try a Battle of our Music Contest, where songs are pitted against each other, and the members of Dallas-Mavs.com choose the winner each week.

The winner each week will face a new challenger every week and if a song wins three times in a row it will be retired to the D-M.C wall of honor!

To listen to each song just click on the album cover, after you have listened to both songs just place a check mark in the box below the album cover you liked best. Then hit the submit button.

To play just click on the band below it will take you to the stage of the Battle Of Our Music and vote for your favorite, remember to hit the submit button to place your vote.

First up (taken from another thread is U2sarajervo with Swithfoot's Always (2009) vs Windmill360 with the Deftone's Change (in the house of flies [2002])


To have one of your songs in the battle just post it in a reply.

Afi - "Beautiful Thieves"
I think that song is a good representation of the quality work that band has been putting out for years. Kind of the culmination of where the group is going in their post-hardcore albums.

Yep did this all myself. I must tell you as of now you are in the lead with Change. I guess we will let these run for 5 to 7 days then start a new contest.

What an awesome idea. And the album cover effects look really cool on hello hurricane....

I had never heard the song that Windmill picked, but I like it. I still love my song though, although I think from that album now I'm hooked on The Sound. That whole album is quality though.

How obscure can the songs be? I mean, I'd use something you can find on Itunes.

We have our first winner and it is Windmill360. This week his Deftone's Change (in the house of flies [2002]) will take on mavsfan1000's Tuesday Afternoon (1968) by the Moody Blues.

Please just vote one time to make this fair.

Just click on the band to listen and vote.

Windmill360 defeated mavsfan1000 by one vote! With a win this week Windmill will reach the Wall Of Honor. He will be facing rmacomic with Crash's Beautiful Thieves. These are two really cool songs and should be another close contest.

To go listen and vote, just click on the band.

Go Mavs!! This thread is done due to (what should I call it) lack of interest. Goodbye. We will call Windmill the winner.

I was keeping track of it but yeah maybe time for a new song from Windmill. We'll say you win twice and go to a new song.
