    Still waiting on 1 of the Finalists submission.

    In the meantime, have dolled out the winnings from BotB I as well to the QF's and SF's of this competition. Congrats again to each and looking forward to seeing even more in BotB III.

    Have heard from the missing finalist (Eminem), but still waiting on those 3 songs to be submitted.

    Thanks all for their patience.

    The Final

    [​IMG] V [​IMG]

    It's time for The Boss and Slim Shady to go head to head. Both capable of great story telling, but from very different styles and themes.

    Our 2 finalists have selected the 3 songs they feel will help them get over the line.

    Now it is all up to the 13 that have been knocked out to determine which of these deserves your points, your vote, and ultimately will be crowned as BotB II Champion - and with it, the v$250,000 prize.

    First up for Eminem, it is The Way I Am, from The Marshall Mathers LP (2000):

    [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWmG0ZsUAag[/ame]


    The Boss's first submission is a 1985 live version of the title track from 1980's The River album.

    [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6R77eGx8xM[/ame]


    Next, for Mr Marshall Mathers III, is 2005's When I'm Gone:

    [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wYNFfgrXTI[/ame]


    From Springsteen's first ever tour of the UK and Europe, comes another live slice, a performance of Junglelands (1975):

    [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0aRhqVWUPPs[/ame]


    And Slim Shady's last song, Superman is taken from The Eminem Show album (2002):

    [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9AWH0C_cDSk[/ame]

    Wrapping it up is Bruce's iconic anthem, Born in the USA, from the album of the same name (1984):

    [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPhWR4d3FJQ[/ame]


    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    This is as far as the 2 Finalists can go.

    Their fate now rests entirely in your hands.

    Alba, Buckeye, Cena, Dylan, Edx3, Farmer, Keano, Sean, Slaw, Stubbsy, SwVulture, Dark & Wicker.

    It is all up to You!!!

    As per the past few rounds, each voter has 5 points to distribute between the 2 artists. How you choose to do so is completely up to yourselves.

    65 Points up for grabs.

    33 to win.

    13 voters.

    6 songs.

    2 Finalists.

    1 Champion.
