if one some could summarize how KoiNoYokan sounds like, that song should be Rosemary.

I think Rosemary is winning just because everyone thought Poltergeist would win, so they decided to vote for the underdog. At least it is proving all the people who said there was no point to these threads because it was obvious Poltergeist would win wrong. Dead wrong.

ignore the fashion

Fuck I accidentally voted for Poltergeist, while I do really like both songs I think I like Poltergeist more.

I agree with SL that these two, Gauze and Goon Squad should've been the last ones standing. Best portion of the album by far to me. Now it's a tough pick but gotta say Rosemary is my favourite and one of my favourite songs I've ever heard, so I'll have to say bye to Poltergeist.

Voting for Poltergeist. Love it, but... Rosemary <3

Off-topic but has there ever been an elimination thing for the older albums? Might be interesting, and I didn't see anything when I did a search.

There was one for Diamond Eyes when it came out. Prince won.

Oh yeah, I knew there was the DE one. Should have specified... Didn't remember that Prince won though. I'd be interested to see the other albums done too, just for the hell of it.

We should do that, starting with SNW and going back to Adrenaline.. or the other way haha.

Haha sounds like Kanye, but both these songs are really good I think they both deserve to win so I'm happy

Big Roy a.k.a The Final Roy a.k.a Roy the Heavenly Body thought this was a cool concept. Goon Squad is my favorite. Thanks for organizing this Inkblades, way to go. Would you consider doing this for Adrenaline and so on? I think that'd be quite nice. Imagine how tough some of those decisions would. Big Roy out!
Chef Royardee voted Rosemary to win.
P.S. the Main Roy just found his black Deftones Sacramento wind breaker. It's in mint condition and Big Roy looks on point. 4 T's and a B. Take That To The Bank!

Rosemary gotta win!

And really it's not too weird, it just shows that the people who would have voted for Poltergeist didn't until it was up against Rosemary.  Makes perfect sense that Poltergeist would receive the least votes in previous rounds, because EVERYONE likes it... just it appears more people like Rosemary better.  According to the data it would appear that most people like Rosemary better, but there are also more people who dislike Rosemary than there are people who "dislike" poltergeist when compared to the rest of the album.  Get it?

We discover the entry! TO OTHER PLANES!!!! lol  To think I used to hate the live version of this song. Rosemary is definitely my favorite, next to Goon Squad.

Poltergeist is my jam but I'm okay with Rosemary winning. Even though I don't find it sounds like any other song on the album, it just kind of sums up perfectly the vibe of the album and the band right now if that makes sense. They seem proud of that song in particular. The monotony of Steph's guitar is probably the only reason I wouldn't pick it over Poltergeist.

if this poll was made 5 months ago...nobody would have notice there was an album behind....

not shure if that is the best of signs...

My opinion, shitiest outcome ever for best song. The fans are surely changing....not a bad thing. I do like it, but it def isn't the best on this record.
Pushing you back but still you ain't goooooooooone!!!!!!

what?

Fuck, both are great songs. At the end of the day Deftones have better "heavier" songs while Rosemary is in its own class of beautiful and strange. Rosemary for the win.
