I've paid my dues... Time after time... I've done my sentence, but committed no crime. And bad mistakes, I've made a few. I've had my share of sand kicked in my face! But I've come through!

WEEEEEEEE ARE THE CHAMPIONS! MY FRIENDS!

Queen!

FXDO8gM

The Final Round was intense. My most active. However, Queen kept a solid lead the whole round, finishing with a score of 26-19. Led Zeppelin made a few attempts at a comeback, but never quite made it and are unfortunately on the Stairway to Heaven.

Congratulations to Queen on the victory!

Out of all my Nominations, I'm surprised Rammstein was the one to go the farthest. I especially wasn't expecting a Top 5 placement. I'm proud of them.

Biggest surprise for me was Johnny Cash not winning the entire thing. I was expecting him to win easily. When he went down, I was guessing Jimi Hendrix or Prince as the winner, and the two of them went down. Lot's of twists and turns in this game. Was a fun time.

Hey man, people like different music. It's ok to not like it, but some do. Any band is eligible for entry. One user mentioned that they almost Nom'd Nickelback. And let's be real here, if Nickelback was in, they'd win.

Didn't like seeing Motrhead go out at 40 either, but I had stopped voting by then, so I can't complain.

Beatles should have been higher too, but I'm surprised they made it to 21. Half of CE seems to hate them just because they're "overrated."

I take responsibility for Motrhead's elimination. It was down to Maiden and Motrhead, and as much as I like Motrhead, I like Maiden, much, much more. Had to save them.

Most of my favorites made the top 40 at least, Metallica and Rise Against cracked the top 10, and we got a very deserving winner. All in all, not too bad.

I'm happy The Offspring was able to make it so far, I didn't expect them to make it much longer after Green Day was questionably eliminated early on.

I was glad that me and @SF_Okami were able to push the Gaslight Anthem into the top 50.

Johnny Cash deserved to win the whole thing

Good contest. Good winner, even though Johnny Cash should have won, and Rollins and Costello definitely should have been in Top 50.

I used to love Maiden, but I just can't take too much of Dickinson's high-pitched vocals. Same reason I can't get too into Judas Priest. Kind of funny, since Lemmy's vocals are on the exact opposite of the spectrum, being so low and gravelly that a lot of people don't like it.

I did get really into Maiden's first album recently, though. Di'Anno's vocals are nothing really outstanding, but it just works for me.

I consider Bruce Dickinson to have one of the best voices in metal. Although Lemmy is no slouch either, dude had a style all his own.

Most of my favorites didn't do super well. Childish Gambino and Kendrick went out super early, Weezer barely cracking top 50 was disappointing, and my fav, Pearl Jam, going out at 33 was super disappointing.

At least The Offspring did solid, 12th ain't bad.

I figured she wouldn't win, but I'm so proud of my girl Nana for making it all the way to 8th and being the last female act standing in the competition. I had other favorites go pretty far as well (despite people bashing some of them) and Queen was a great choice for the winner.

Correction, 26 episodes long and each is about 10 minutes long if you exclude the godly opening and ending, and yes it has a good dub.

Zeppelin can't be better than anyone because their fame was built on the backs of other musicians.
