Just listening to My Guitar Lies Bleeding In My Arms... surely that ending has got to be in every one's top song moments. Those vocals. That guitar. Gives me chills!

Are the judge trying to influence the voting?

I actually had that key change from Jon near the end of the song listed in my top song's moments. So yeah, I agree with you

Have to not totally agree there, as I find the best moment of the song to be the entrance of that heavy guitar riff just before the solo. Totally cool.

BTW ok havent voted yet, I will soon.

Haha definitely not. Just trying to generate some conversation. If I wanted to influence the results, I would've done so earlier in the voting period when votes were coming in fast and plenty. Voting has subsided to a slow trickle over the past day or so.

Don't worry, when I was reading all the votes coming through, on mulptiple occasions I was like, crap! How could I forget that one!

You did too! Along with myself and 3 others. Not sure if it will be enough though. It needs a few more votes to crack the top 10 of that category. It's a close one.

Well I agree with you! The entire second half of that song is pure bliss! And you have plenty of time to vote. Still 2 days left until the polls close.

24 hours left to vote!

A few more submissions would be very handy to separate a few categories which have songs that are currently tied.

Looking forward to announcing the nominations!

There's no key change in that song. Jon sings it in the same key, but in a higher octave.

Key change -> Livin' On A Prayer, Queen Of New Orleans, Always (boxset demo), I'll Be There For You (very last chorus before the sing-a-long)
Octave change -> It's My Life, Lie To Me, My Guitar Lies Bleeding and perhaps a few others.

I got my votes in barely before the deadline. I didn't have time to do the favorite moments in songs category. I have to get to work. Sorry!!!
