Personal Survivor: Ron's throwback rock songs Vol 3 (WINNER)
So it is time for my third installment of my throwback songs. Every week I list 1 or 2 throwback songs on my countdown and periodically have a survivor for them. For anyone who did my last surivivor they will know why this is round 0...
Lets recap the previous winners:
Vol. 1: Filter- "Take a Picture"
Vol. 2: Stone Temple Pilots- "Interstate Love Song"
These are the songs for Vol. 3:
U2- "Pride (In The Name Of Love)"

The Mars Volta- "The Widow"
Live- "Lightning Crashes"
Placebo- "Special K"
Our Lady Peace- "Somewhere Out There"
Nine Inch Nails- "Head Like a Hole"
Audiovent- "The Energy"
But before that, we must resurrect 3 previous songs from the dead. As on Vol 2, we will vote back in 3 songs from Vol 1 and 2 to make it onto this voting list
Vol 1 and 2 losers:
Faith No More- "Epic"
Face to Face- "The New Way"
The Breeders- "Cannonball"

Deftones- "Minerva"
Alice In Chains- "Would?"

So your job is to vote for 5 songs from the vol 1 and 2 losers to make it onto Vol 3. Vote for 5 and the top 3 will make it onto Vol. 3 with the other songs listed above. That is why this is called Round 0.
Soundgarden- "Fell On Black Days"
Alice In Chains- "Would?"
Jimmy Eat World- "Sweetness"
Smashing Pumpkins- "Bullet With Butterfly Wings"
Bush- "Machinehead"
Personal Survivor: Ron's throwback rock songs Vol 3 (ROUND 1)
So it seems there was a consensus on 2 songs to make it back in. Those were "Would?" with 4 votes and "Fell On Black Days" with 3. There were 4 songs with 2 votes so I chose 2 of them to make it back in ("Pressure" and "Machinehead")
So here is the final list for Vol 3 in alphabetical order:
Alice in Chains- "Would?"
Audiovent- "The Energy"
Bush- "Machinehead"
Korn- "Blind"
Live- "Lightning Crashes"
Lo Fidelity Allstars- "Battle Flag"

Soundgarden- "Fell On Black Days"
The Mars Volta- "The Widow"

Vote 3 out 2 will go. Please do yourself a favor and listen to the song before you vote it off if you don't know it. You may end up liking it.
