Best song in the contest with a long name?

Rules:
- Listen to both of the songs. Links have conveniently been provided for both songs. Even if Song A is your favorite of all-time and Song B is from a series you hate... Listen. To. Both. (If I have suspicions you are not doing this, your vote may be disqualified.)
- Obvious contest rules apply (no alts, one vote per person, no rallying, etc.).
- Please make your voting options clear, rather than burying them in text.
- Each set of matches lasts 24 hours, even if the new one isn’t up by then.
- Always vote on the versions of the song provided, not versions from different sources.
- If you know ahead of time that you're not going to be around and you want to vote in advance, post your choices in the discussion/bracket topic.
- Please do NOT post tallies/score updates in the middle of the match, as this has a tendency to directly influence matches.
- You don't have to vote in all the matches, but it'd be cool if you did!

ugh, what a terrible day. Almost every song today sucks. Tomorrow's Ingredients is the best of the lot, though even it has some issues. Incidentally, We're the Robots is one of the worst Mega Man songs and I'm always confused as to why it's moderately popular.

Not much to say about the first match.

Yesterday's Opponents is another song that surprised me because I only listened to the first 10 seconds or so during nominations. It is also a really messed up song, which is actually a good thing in this context. Unfortunately though its up against Key, whose games actually have really good music I don't care what anyone else says. This is also probably one of the better ones also? Hard to say since they've got a lot of quality songs but this one feels like it has to be up there.

Bonus match has a Mega Man song, and to my amazement I actually didn't hate this one at first sight. In fact I rather liked it. It is also against a song which I've way more times than any non-Touhou fan should. (One of my college roommates was a sort-of-Touhou guy and Touhou 6 was the one that taught him to get good at the games) I definitely liked it a lot more the first time I heard it than I do now, but I feel like it still edges out getting my vote here. It is still a pretty good song I guess.

I guess DpObliVion gets to be in my sig now. His knowledge of video game popularity contests far surpasses my own.

First match is easy.

Scene Shifts Here is decent emotional stuff but I'm not in the mood and YOaTI is one of my favorite discoveries this contest.

I've heard way too many remixes of U.N. Owen for its own good thanks to rhythm games but it's still a cool song.

Pretty damn good day. Megalopolis is quite legit (I contemplated supporting it in noms) and I yet again nearly betrayed a nomination for it (and one I care for more than most at that. DoD is my personal favourite Bean Dreams song by a noticeable margin and I've really wanted to see it get some exposure for a while now. Well, as much of "a while" as you can really get with a song from a game that only came out a couple of years ago, anyway).

Yesterday's Opponents is better than I remember it being. Huh. Also Scene Shifts There isn't exactly anywhere near my favourite Rewrite song, but I do like it a reasonable amount. Good match.

I pretty easily went with UN Owen in my bracket (taking it as far as round 4 much to my surprise) and it's still a relatively easy pick today too. Not to put down We're The Robots, which I at least do consider a good Mega Man song...
