I like Vera Street.  I haven\'t heard it at a show forever, but did enjoy the recording from Jakes.

no diggity but I use the that as my train of thought and I thought I would just offer my reasoning behind picking what song I picked.

its all good in the hood.

I understand what you are getting at and didn\'t mean for you to perceive what I said as you should have omitted these songs, I like the pre-tourney idea.


exactly. there\'s a reason why these songs are where they are in the tourney, but we can\'t pretend they don\'t exist.


You\'re pretending Beer Jubilee and Vortex don\'t exist.  I want my annual vote for Beer Jubilee.  You can\'t pretend it doesn\'t exist just because it isn\'t being played.

Vera St is one of their best, hands down. The jazzy melodies, Beatlesesque harmonies and pillow made from someone else\'s blood all contribute to one of their most matured pieces to date.

I say vera street because it\'s a more, i dunno, serious song. No glove no love has always been kind of a joke song to me. It\'s funny and I laugh when they play it, but, I would prefer vera street.

NG rules... it may be silly, but it\'s got a great beat & energy in it, whereas Vera street doesn\'t grab my attention.

ngnl, cos that song, along with a bottle of whiskey being passed around in tim\'s old van, led to my downfall at SCSU many moons ago.

I\'m shocked that 24 people like Vera Street as a song in general.

Don\'t understand all of the hate for Vera St. It\'s a pretty song.

Am one of the few who actually quite likes NGNL - it\'s fine if you accept it for what it is. However, Vera St is one of my all time favourite pb/bfast ballads, so gets my vote.

FUCK Vera Street. Perhaps my least favorite Breakfast tune. God it\'s bad.

Can we start a Team Vera Street that is all about shelving the tune?

I would let my head be put in a vice grip and closed before I would want to hear them play that tune at a Breakfast show.

This is only my opinion. I would have voted against Vera Street if it was up against no song.
