Had to go superjesus on this one. That verdena song is just lackadaisical and boring to me.

My vote is for the verdena, superjesus song was mmm boring.

It's a surprise that someone post an italian song. Good song but i they have done better! Other italian on the site? Or they are famous also in other nation?

They were both quite good, in a fairly typical alt. rock way. My attention to lyrics is the deciding factor here, along with my inability to understand Italian. So, it was close, both decent enough, but I'll vote for The Superjesus, purely because I could understand the lyrics.

I liked Superjesus quite a lot but found the other song a bit dull.
Nothing to do with Verdena being Italian, because one of my favourite songs is Senzafine by the Italian band Lacuna coil :D
Your strength is my weakness, your weakness my hate
My love for you just can't explain
Why we're forever frozen, forever beautiful
Forever lost inside ourselves

I actually liked them both a lot! I went with Verdena, although it's true they could have done more in the way of dynamics--maybe it was the quality of the recording

Went with Down Again. Liked them both well enough, but The Superjesus just appealed to me more.

They're pretty bland sounding to me. One man's garbage, another man's treasure...

tough one. they were both alright, but as epitome said in a "typical alt rock" kind of way. neither really stood out , but i liked Verdena better so i voted for them. and did Superjesus remind anyone of Flyleaf? they sound like Flyleaf vocal wise. i don't really like Flyleaf, but i thought that when i first listened to the video.

The Superjesus one was quite good. Didn't love it, but it was rather listenable. Couldn't stand the vocals in the Verdena one.

Re: The Music Taste Championships - Elimination Match #9 1 year 8 months ago #96722

Yeah, I'm going to go ahead and call this one for Superjesus, 8-5. This means glass departs the competition.

Choices were:
Radiohead - High & Dry (win)
**Forfeit** (no song submitted - loss)
Queens of the Stone Age - The Lost Art Of Keeping A Secret (win)
Verdena - Phantastica (loss)
