March Madness: Fictional Band’s Songs– Sweet 16

On By Josh SorensenIn Fictional Songs, March Madness1 Comment

Guys, this is the best seeding I have ever done. I can’t believe things are moving along the way they are. This year’s bracket is very much a battle of the blue-bloods. The second round of our tournament was basically a good mix of runaways and a few very close match-ups! By the end of Wednesday voting we ended up with three regions that saw the 1-4 seeds move on to the Sweet 16 and one that went scratch with the exception of our double seed match-up.

The Regional Semifinal round begins now and voting will end Sunday, March 31 at 5pm Central. It’s hard to believe March is already almost finished. Good luck with making up your mind on some of these. I’m for real at a complete loss at how to vote on almost all of these match-ups. (Just a note that this Sunday is Easter and we have a ton of travelling ahead of us so I’ll do my best to get the Elite 8 post up in a timely manner on Monday.)

But first — Let’s get on to the results! Remember all “scores” are percentages from voting.

March Madness: Fictional Band’s Songs– Round of 32

On By Josh SorensenIn Fictional Songs, March Madness1 Comment

First off – thank you everyone for voting. It makes me so happy to do these every year and see so much action from y’all. We had some nail biters in the first round (including our first tie of the year!) and some match-ups that mirrored the real tournament where the higher seed catches a punch to the mouth in the first half and then shows their muscle in the second half, blowing past the weaker competition.

I definitely seeded some of these with my heart instead of where they may have truly belonged but overall, this is the best I have ever done in regard to seeding after Round 1 of voting. We had two regions go scratch with the 1-8 seeds taking care of business, and one region almost go scratch with the exception of the 9 seed overtaking the 8 seed which is pretty much a toss up every time anyway. Then there’s the Rockstar Region. Which, hoo boy, did that region more than make up for the lack of shockers in the other three regions. More on that in a bit.

March Madness: Fictional Band’s Songs– Round of 64

On By Josh SorensenIn Fictional Songs, March Madness, Music1 Comment

Well in the past year I’ve written nada for this site. Sometimes we fall into a backslide and have to remind ourselves that’s okay. And sometimes we have to extra remind ourselves that’s only one less than last year. I gotta be better lol

As it is, unbelievably, we are back for our 9th year doing these brackets. Time flies, y’all! In our 8th year we voted for our favorite commercial jingle of all time with the Toys ‘R’ Us jingle “I Don’t Wanna Grow Up” coming out victorious, joining 7th year bracket which found our favorite Disney song with Aladdin‘s “Friend Like Me” coming out victorious by one vote! These winners join our group of champions with 6th year Champ – our favorite holiday movie Elf. 5th year Champion of our favorite fast-food joint was one of our closer finals matchups as Whataburger was crowned. Our fourth-year winner of favorite TV theme song was won in a rout by The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. This joins our third-year winner for favorite breakfast food: Breakfast Tacos and Burritos. Our second-year bracket crowned The Sandlot as our champions of the Best Sports Movie Bracket. Our first champion was in the music bracket where The Beatles reigned victorious. It’s my pleasure to announce our topic this year: Fictional Band Songs.

We found out last year that some folks were unable to load the full Round of 64 post. Apparently the site doesn’t enjoy trying to load like 70+ YouTube links at once. I’ll post each region separately for y’all to vote on. Let me know if this doesn’t work but I think it should. Here is the TV Region.
