Rules:
- Listen to both songs in a given match, at least through the loop time provided (to make sure you don't skip before you've heard the whole thing!)
- Please consider the loop point listed when judging the song; if a video loops one minute 5 times, don't treat it as if it's a repetitive 5 minute song
- If it's a match between your favorite song ever and a song you despise, still LISTEN TO BOTH! Votes can and will be disqualified if there is suspicion songs are not being listened to, and you may be discounted for the rest of the contest for repeat offenses.
- No alt accounts, no rallying or begging, etc., etc.... You only get one vote! Swapping votes is alright, just make clear that you've already made a vote and are swapping.
- Make clear what your voting options are! Please keep votes separate from any comments, and use the titles given in the topic post.
- Voting in all matches is not mandatory, feel free to skip matches you do not wish to vote in.
- Vote based on the links provided, and not other sources of audio. Links are specifically chosen for best quality and the like.
- Don't discuss vote tallies in this thread, or in other threads, as they may influence votes. Likewise, please refrain from looking at the running tally before voting.

Voting Period:
- Today's matches will last 24 hours from the time of posting, or 24 hours from 10pm Eastern, whichever is the later time.
- Please note this may mean that two topics will be active at the same time!

Easy vote form:
Un Deux Trois / To Far Away Times

Chrono Trigger - To Far Away Times

Un Deux Trois

To Far Away Times

To Far Away Times

yes I did pre-listen this time.

Updated thoughts on 123:
Okay yeah I was in a really crappy mood that last time. It sounds better today. Vocals still annoying af but for some reason I didn't notice until now that 123 is like entirely in the major key which is definitely a bonus. We NEED more major key representation so I'm glad about that at least. TFAT is also mostly major key but I think it switches to minor towards the end oof

still voting tfat, but I can appreciate 123 being one of the few major key songs that gets tons of respect. If 123 is actually minor and I'm mistaken, don't tell me. Don't ruin it for me. Let me be happy in my belief that it is entirely major key.

No

actually 123 at least I respect you being here

DEEMO II - Un Deux Trois

CHRONO TRIGGER - To Far Away Times

To Far Away Times > Un Deux Trois

I do really like both songs so I wouldn't complain about UDT winning but TFAT just hits different

un deux trois

DEEMO II - Un Deux Trois

Times

To Far Away Times

Un Deux Trois > Priphrie du Temps

To Far Away Times

Easy choice, but I think I respect 123 more than yesterday, it's fine if it wins. Because I forgot about it, Top 8 order: Moonlight >>> Back in Time > Ragna > Far Away > Specter > Epicentre > 123 > PowerOne

Also choosing between Smiles and Tears and Memories of You is insanely hard for me, don't make me do it again.

Un Deux Trois

My favorite of the four bracket finals! (even if I do wish it were Tyrano Lair here instead)

DEEMO II - Un Deux Trois

Un Deux Trois

the intro and end of to far away times are pretty nice as usual but still the song is jsut fine overall imo, not rlly all that special or amazing. in addition to un deux trois being my favourite remaining song i think my vote is easily guessable lol

Un Deux Trois

Un Deux Trois

Today's match features the only song I wouldn't be happy winning the whole thing, so that makes my vote pretty easy.
