This Max Richter hate is disrespectful!

The only disrespect I see is that it beat A-Punk.

"A-Punk" is a great song, but there are much better Vampire Weekend songs to choose from.

"A-Punk" is a great song, but there are much better Vampire Weekend songs to choose from.

that's irrelevant to this competition though. A-Punk was a much better song then the Max Richter one.

the paper planes, while only being made of paper, may be sharp enough to pop those luftballoons --- but 99 of them? We'll see!

I love Shiny Happy People, but I can't vote against Hawksley. Thank you to whoever submitted one of his songs!

I really like Excuses. And Strangers is growing on me lol
