Three of the last four are the new singles. Not too surprising I guess.
#1 Second Chance #7 45
#3 Sound Of Madness #4 Devour
My FINAL matchup would be:
#1 Second Chance vs. #4 Devour

Bleh. "Burning Bright" is definitely their most underrated single.

I'll let the next vote break the tie between Devour and Sound Of Madness. If nobody wants to do that, Devour goes to the final versus Second Chance based on more votes previously. Whatever works.

About five Shinedown fans here. Pretty much what I figured. But Second Chance should easily be remembered as their signature song, unfortunately to many.

I guess I'll vote Second Chance. I'm honestly surprised "Devour" made it this far. I would've picked something from their debut to be more popular with the alt/rock crowd. If the semis had put "45" against "Devour," I think the finals would have been Second Chance vs. 45. It's like baseball where the ALCS often feels more like the world championship than the world series does (sorry national league fans).

I would go Devour, Simple Man, Fly From The Inside, Sound Of Madness, and Burning Bright as the best five Shinedown releases.
And as a lifelong A.L. fan myself, it's particularly disturbing the National League have taken two of the last three Series.

I would vote Devour. It's what got me really into Shinedown, nothing before that had really blown me away. Edit: Other than 45, I guess.

I have heard Breaking Inside stealing a few spins on Sirius. Seems way out of place. I have also caught Cyanide Sweet Tooth Suicide at least twice this month. I'm not sure what's next, but Suicide would sound fantastic to finish out the album.

Billboard now has this at the #2 overall song played on radio. Most likely will be the biggest overall song of the year. Unreal.

Soon to be announced as the #1 rock song of 2009, and the band as the top artist in rock formats, this song and Shinedown were completely ignored by Grammy. What went wrong there? Or is the band just too "ordinary" to stand out.

did forever by papa roach or breath by breaking benjamin received a grammy nomination? i think no forever was the #1 mainstream rock song of its year, despite not being #1 for a single week. i don't know the criteria for a song to get a nomination...but it's kinda unfair for me that such hits didn't receive a grammy nomination

Well, to me Papa Roach's Forever was and still is instantly forgettable. As are the Creed-like monotony of Breaking Benjamin songs. But Second Chance hit about every possible format, soundtracked a TV series, and will soon be covered on Glee (just kidding, don't really know about that). This just seemed like a once-in-a-decade type song, and to not have it nominated for anything really surprised me.
