Apparently Subby's chosen song is the wonderful melody of crickets chirping.

Well when you think of love songs I think you have to avoid the schmaltzy and go for the downright deviant. That's why I'll go with The Kinks - Lola for my love song.
w00t Trannies! Classic - Stairway to Heaven, Led Zeppelin (1-1) Epic - Freebird, Lynyrd Skynyrd (3-1) Arena - Trendsetter - Love Song - Lola, The Kinks (5-1) One-Hit Wonder - Party - Crossover - Cover - You Really Got Me, Van Halen (4-10) Anti-Establishment - Fuck Tha Police, N.W.A. (2-10)

OK, I really like this pick. It's a very popular newer song that gets a ton of airtime but It is also a great anti-establishment song.

Agreed... I thin it could be savvy because of drawing in a certain portion of the voters in a category that is pretty wide-open imo. Only thing I wonder is if it could have waited a few rounds.

This pick seems to fit with the trend that I expected with this category which I think will hurt many contestants in the long run.

Once I picked You Really Got Me for my cover I worried that The Kinks might be off the board for my 6.10 - I agree it's a bit of a reach, but I really liked this as my love song.

OK but i don't see how it isn't an anti establishment song and you can't make the argument that the majority of people who vote won't see it as one. It certainly is a song everyone will know.

Don't get me wrong, I think it fits very clearly in that category and the American Idiot album is one of my favorite "end-to-end" albums in the last 5 years.

As we wait for NoMyths...
I have Butter's next pick ready to go (he PM'ed) and it's one of those great picks in these drafts where you didn't even think of it, but once you see it you go "of course, perfect!"

Some people don't like this guy for obvious reasons, but you can't deny the epic-ness of the song.

Kool and the Gang - solid pick there. I'd put it a notch below 1999 and Fight for Your Right, but I don't think there are any others of that calibre.

Unlike Butter's pick which you claimed was in the "duh, never would have thought of it category"... this one IS in that category for me... OUTSTANDING pick imo...

The more I think about it, the more I think Thriller would have been a solid 1st rounder.

Maybe I am just missing the defination of the catergory for party song. While celebrate is a fun song, it doesn't scream sex, drugs and rock and roll to me.

Maybe I did reach for Gary Glitter (OK, I did)... but I don't see how that song isn't considered one of the top arena songs of all time. It's got catchiness, and you can't tell me there are many better songs at getting 20,000 people fired up. Maybe I'm in the minority (and judging by the comments, I am), but I had to stick up for my pick a bit there.
A lot of you are coming up with some nice stuff, this has been fun to read so far. Sorry I haven't been around more yesterday and today, but my computer access has been a bit limited.

I thought it was one of the top 4 or 5 options for Arena Song... Maybe the problem is it's more Arena Song than Arena Rock - particulary by the definition that ML layed out... I think if we were doing a Jock Rock category it's a clear #1, it's a little bit hazier with this category definition.
