That vid looks like calabasas commons?

I think you may be right. Well done.

Do they go absolutely every where together?

Impossible to tell. No-one has seen him for about a year. They could have spent every day of that together or this could be the first time they met up that year. Who knows? Not us!

I tried a google image search but all it came up with was a helpful explanation of waste container also known as a dustbin.

This is the most difficult vote for me in the whole game so far. Both songs are pretty close to perfect. How do you choose between two perfect songs?

Dolphins or Arnie?

It's the final hurdle.

You could not be mine today. Estranged for the win. 

I think it would be okay for either of YCBM or CW to be the runner up. Everything from round 5 up represents GNR at their best.

You folks are being too politically aware. CW should have gone before Locomotive. 

 Nothing to do with politics. CW is a banging tune. It's also the song where Axl's love of sampling works best. Some of them are a bit cringe but on CW it does actually add something.

YCBM. I like the other two more. Great song though and deserving of top 3.

It seemed kinda obvious that these would be the final 4 songs. Time for Civil War to go, then YCBM can go next round, leaving the 'Axl epic' vs the 'Slash epic' in the finals.

The final is looking likely to be Estranged vs YCBM.

Estranged will win.

As it should. 

This was painful. Between YCBM and Locomotive. Reluctantly chose Locomotive despite having one of the best GNR outros. I think overall YCBM is more consistently better through the whole song.

PTU, love it but it's not in the same league as the other four.

I love PTU, it's my favourite out of the novelty leaning songs in the GNR catalogue. Great melody and doesn't take itself too seriously. The other four all qualify as epic tracks so that's why it will be my next choice, reluctantly.

This was more sophisticated than the rickroll one so well played. 

However the other one got locked so only fair to lock this now too.

Been voting for 14 years since round 3

I think today might be your day! 

Went for 14 Years this round. Solid song but something has to go.

I don't think I want to vote anymore after this round. 

I will but I don't want to.

Arrgh this is difficult now. It's between Yesterdays and Breakdown for me. Went with Yesterdays on the basis I listen to it slightly less I think. Not a good reason but it's a reason.

Industry insiders told The Washington Post that the academy is considering revoking his Oscar now.

In related news, Diddy claims that Smith and Rock made peace after the show.

They wouldn't need to if they'd removed him and not given it in the first place.

Will be interesting to see if they actually follow through. It really shouldn't need much consideration.

If there's no consequences who the fuck is going to want to host in the future?

I've mostly stopped watching movies awhile ago.  Checked out The Batman yesterday but I really don't plan on wasting any more of my time on the medium and those who make them.

Last night was confirmation that the entire film industry is a waste of time.

The biggest problem wasn't Smith's assault on Rock, which was bad enough all things considered.

The biggest problem was the standing ovation Smith received fifteen minutes later. 

How Smith was still in the building is beyond me.  

But there they all were, Mel Gibson included, applauding someone who just openly assaulted someone for a rather lame joke just fifteen minutes earlier. 

If there was a moment that crystallized how pathetic the industry has become, that was it.  

Exactly.

Maybe this is a UK centric view but how is Rock not protected under some sort of workplace Health and Safety? He was assaulted whilst doing his job. Surely at the very least the Academy is duty bound to immediately remove the threat?

Oh, Jesus Christ. Yep, that's even worse. VERY typical of what I see in the world these days. Sad. 

The whole speech was about justifying his violence.

I feel like you and I have been fairly similar in our votes! 

This may be the hardest one yet; to have so many good songs that I genuinely love. Had to go wit Don't Cry (Alt.) this round for the same reason. I might have to go for "Yesterdays" next, which seems...wrong. 

I know right? I'm thinking about KOHD next, trying to justify it on the basis that it's a cover and not original music, except I do really like it a lot so it feels wrong.

They're all going to feel wrong no matter what from here on in.

Edit: Having just said that I've now looked at the poll and I think the KOHD decision has been made for me.

I thought Will smacked him because they were planning on discussing that on table talk? Like when Jada admitted to borderline statutory rape...

I'm clearly missing some background here. I don't follow either of them at all. What's table talk?

Getting harder now. Went for Don't Cry Alt. I like the alternate version but at the end of the day it is a duplicate so can't rank it higher than the remaining tracks.

Finally So Fine went. Should have been at least 2nd to go but oh well.

Now has to be Get In the Ring. The ranting was amusing for about 10 minutes in the 90s but aged badly.
