No way will Rosemary be within the first four.

Swerve City. The only shitty song on the record for me. Poltergeist will probably win.


Kings

Dreams shouldn't have any votes. Its the greatest song of all time. Fuckers.

Ah ah yeah I'm with you on this.

I voted Romantic Dreams. Worst second song in all their discography, can't believe it was placed there. Well, I can't believe it actually made it on the record in the first place so...

What's so bad about romantic dreams i know it's not some peoples favourite but surely it isn't that bad, plus it's pretty similar to the other KNY songs so i don't see how you can despise that one song so much and like the others

Gauze, just because. Then pretty shitty Swerve City.

Swerve City is awesome! I just can't understand the hate...

sing blue silver

Swerve City for me is one of the few Deftones songs that doesn't even sound like a Deftones song. The lyrics are cringe worthy, the oh-a-woah-oh's make me want to puke and feel like a shitty generic pop radio song and the riff is boring as fuck. All the mystic shit (horses traveling through the air, playing around with her forces) is just so fucking lame to me. Sounds like Chino was intent on delivering absolutely zero legitimate emotion. The song feels like they're faking it and though I absolutely adore this record, I HATE this song. At least I like it better than the song Diamond Eyes though. Talk about a piece of shit song. Just sucks that the two songs I truly hate in the bands catalogue are the two most recent opening tracks. To my though the rest of Koi No Yokan is absolute gold though. Love every other track.

Lame intro riff. Bad lyrics. Cheesy chorus (melody, and lyrics). Verses are ok.

Graphic Nature is probably the most altogether 'Deftones of old' sounding song on here.  Not just musically but Chino has his more unique vocal style on this song

chino's melodies in graphic nature verses do sound alot like what he does in street carp. i don't mind, still dig it

Can't believe WHTY went first. Classic mistake. Also cant believe Prince made the final for DE. Worst song on that record. Oh well.

Also, I second that Poltergeist will win and I can't really take issue with that. Although I think Rosemary probably should.

Hahaha. Prince is still my favourite on that record. Different strokes I guess.
