If I were watching this live, I think I would be into it. Also must mention the Leb I Sol track you replaced (Damar). It had a great Summer day, play in the car, as you drive along the coast feel to it. Found it available on Amazon Music Unlimited and saved it to one of my driving playlists. Was my preferred of the Leb I Sol. The replacement (Pod vodom) was bit too 'busy' for me.

1. Mainhorse - 5 pts
2. Smak - 3 pts
3. Leb I Sol - Akupunktura - 2 pts
4. Leb I Sol - Pod vodom - 1 pt
Thanks for your comment, George! As for the Smak track, I 'hate' drum solos too, esp. when they appear on a studio album for no reason. I like the rest of that track, though and decided to 'ignore' this drum solo. lol I replaced the other track by Leb i sol because they are known for their ethno-jazz-fusion which doesn't come quite into its own in the tracks that I've shared before. But I'm glad that one of them made it into your driving playlist!

Mila: Nice selection, I didn't know any of these. Music taste is very mysterious, and so one of the two Leb i sol tracks makes me want it play again and again whereas the other one leaves me rather cold, despite superficially being not too different and of course from the same band, so I'll rank these 1 and 4. The Smak track is definitely interesting with some good original parts, even though  it has a bit of a going nowhere feel. The Patrick Moraz starts very promising, but during the later soloing I decided to give the three points to Smak. Tough call between these.
5 Leb i sol: Pod vodum
3 Smak
2 Patrick Moraz
1 Leb i sol: Akupunktura

I dont know if Cristi and BaldFriede will find the way to put the points to our selections.

Anyway, the final vote should start tomorrow or, at least, on thursday.

If Cristi did not vote, you'd be free to choose your fave song.

@Lorenzo, Jean and Friede did vote but unfortunately their votes are not quite complete. As far as I can see, the votes for Nick, George (mathman), Cristi and myself are missing. I don't know if they overlooked their selections or maybe it is due to a time problem?

@George, I have added Friede's votes so far to the spreadsheet.

I’m on holiday at the moment. I have a few more songs to listen to, and allocate points for. I’m hoping to do this tomorrow. Sorry for the delay.
