Consider it done!

That's a great idea. I picked AYD because it seems like a lot of people don't care for TEIWWB. I figured AYD would probably get more votes.

I did AYD as well - its still being played on the radio here but TEIWWB is not. I figure more people would know about AYD as well.

That was my thoughts. I was going to type a long explanation but decided to do something a little more productive, but I've changed my mind.

Voting for AYD would possibly help it win, thus giving OLP exposure and people will buy the album and start listening to the "better" songs on it. This will increase OLP popularity forcing radio stations to play the music. People will then start going to concerts, buying merchandise and the CM will have a huge increase in members.

Well, something like that, maybe the effect is a little exaggerated.

I don't mean to bash your taste, but it wasn't exactly like there were fistfuls of great songs on the list to begin with..

I voted for OLP, although I really disagree with my votes lol.

If I didn't want to help out OLP, I would have voted for Uprising by Muse as Best Song, and Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King by DMB for Best Album.

After much internal conflict, I voted for AYD. As a Trencher, I usually vote for Marianas Trench but... hey, to be fair, OLP told me to vote first.

I don't promote OLP based on the shitty songs sorry, Monkey Brains, Paper moon, Escape Artist, hell even Dreamland I probably would have spread the link like wild fire to get votes, but I can't vote for those songs, hearing them makes me a die a little inside.

My point was that whether you liked AYD or not, it was still one of the better songs you could have voted for. And yet you didn't.
