There is no limited to my utter and total hatred of Sex and Candy

I, too, dislike this song pretty strongly. And Vehicle is one of my favorites from the high 100s-low 200s range, so I really hope it wins the matchup.

No Rain is one of my all-time favorite songs. That entire album is pretty good.
Telstar and It's Raining Men is a tough one for me. I find both songs fun for some reason.

There's so much hate voting for S&C.

Waitresses vs Tomtom Club is the actual worst pairing in the first round ever!

Both are classic classics! Breeze is the worst!

It's one of the best songs of the 90s and definitely the best one hit wonder of the 90s

I was starting to think I was one of the few that really enjoyed that song. I actually really enjoy that entire album. Poppies in particular is really good.

That beginning of In The Meantime! Wow that takes me back! Such a great 90s beginning!

I never knew the name of this band :)

Love that song

I am right up there with you. Possibly my least favorite song of all time, and certainly my least favorite that falls into the genre of music that is in my wheelhouse.

This is me voting the democratic candidate over Trump no matter who it is.

You should both be fired into the sun

I wouldn't consider Blind Melon a one hit wonder. They had a lot of success and are still touring, obviously with a different lead singer.

Opened this thread while listening to the Spotify playlist of our 1HWs, voted, then with a smirk opened up the vid for Spacehog, Youtube took me to Primitive Radio Gods, and now I'm hopelessly lost again.

Thoughts:

Divynals vs Baltimora - expected the blow out...

Spacehog vs The Georgia Satellites - I expected Spacehog to get a lot more support...

The Weather Girls vs Tornados - I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried...

Marcy Playground vs Ides of March - didn't realize there was this much hate for Marcy Playground. I wonder how many of Vehicles votes were against the opponent.

Boone vs Hugh - wasn't sure how You Light Up My Life would be received...wonder how it will do in the next round against a much stronger opponent.

Buggles vs Rivieras - OHW classic wins big as expected...

Blind Melson vs The Capitols - easy pick

The Waitresses vs Tom Tom Club - this one was intriguing, two songs from the same time frame with the same target audience...I thought it would be much closer. I guess the taunting "I know what boys like" is more popular than I expected given the easy victory.
