Hello: Welcome to the 2nd Annual March Madness tournament! This is identcial to the March Madness Tournament that we had last year. I always find out about some great songs with these tournaments. The last one produced my #1 song of 2014. (Thanks, Mikey!) To recap, list 8 songs that you would like to enter into the tournament. Number your songs 1-8 so that I can place them in the first rounds appropriately. Songs that you rank #1 will go against someone else's #8 ranked song and so on. They will then face off against other people's entries until we can proclaim a final March Madness winner! You have until March 16th at 7AM Mountain Time to submit your songs. I will copy the rules from that tournament here: 1. There is no limit on the number of participants. The number of rounds is subject to the number of participants. Otherwise, we will go through the usual cycle of preliminaries, quarter-finals, sweet sixteen, semi-finals, final four, and championship. Rounds will last 24-48 hours. I will post the full bracket at Challonge 2. Vote for the song you most prefer of the two songs listed. One vote for each battle per person. You are not required to vote on each battle. You do not have to submit songs to be able to vote. 3. In the first round, ties will be broken by higher bracket number. For subsequent rounds, ties will be broken first by total cumulative vote, including previous rounds. Keep this in mind when you rank your songs. 4. You may not include a song that was already in the March Madness tournament or last year's Summertime Madness tournament. As far as choosing songs, I tried to select songs that have impacted my top 20 the last three months. You are free to update and change your list up until the start date, which will be March 16th. My entrants for March Madness 2015: 1. Truffle Butter - Nicki Minaj featuring Drake and Lil Wayne 2. Love Me Like You Do - Ellie Goulding 3. Juntos - Juanes 4. Show Me Love - Sam Feldt 5. Uptown Funk! - Mark Ronson featuring Bruno Mars 6. Energy - Drake 7. Heartbeat Song - Kelly Clarkson 8. Firestone - Kygo featuring Conrad

some Q&A with Pops: btw since DJ dave has picked TOL, can i use a remix of it? Which means you can't use a remix of a song if the original cersion of the song has already been taken. can i put unreleased tracks (example : Klingande's "Riva" will be released on March 2) now?
