My votes (yes, I'm voting! These seeds are sort-of objective, and my opinions can and have changed over the past 5 years as you'll see):
45. White Stripes - Icky Thump
83. Falling Up - Escalates (I like Creed a lot less now after I realized what a douche Scott Stapp is.)
82. Muse - Supermassive Black Hole
48. Anberlin - Dismantle.Repair. (This is a rout... I regretted putting "Hero" at #1 mere weeks, maybe even days after I did so.)
49. Jimmy Eat World - Sweetness
79. Jimmy Eat World - Pain
51. My Chemical Romance - I'm Not Okay (I Promise)
52. My Chemical Romance - Famous Last Words
53. Cold - Gone Away
75. Cave In - Inspire
55. John Mayer - No Such Thing (the toughest battle of this round)
56. Jason Mraz - You and I Both
57. Mad at Gravity - Walk Away (If "Everything" hadn't spent a 2nd week at #1, it would be dead last on this list. It spent just 4 weeks in the top 5.)
71. Weezer - We Are All On Drugs
70. Skindred - Nobody
60. Mute Math - Plan B
61. Evanescence - Going Under
62. Coldplay - Speed of Sound
66. System of a Down - Question!
64. Jimmy Eat World - Work
I'll concede that ties should be broken by which song I didn't vote for.

Round 2: The tie at #4 and #5 was between the Foo Fighters' "Best of You" and Evanescence's "The Only One". Both songs had 7 weeks at #1, 18 weeks in the top 5, a record-tying 21 weeks in the top 10, and 29 weeks on chart overall. "Best of You" was awarded the #4 seed based on its year-end finish of #2 for 2006. I'm adding YouTube links for selected songs based only on potential obscurity. I haven't looked at these matchups closely enough yet to know who I'd vote for. 1. Evanescence f/Paul McCoy - Bring Me to Life vs. 64. Jimmy Eat World - Work 2. Green Day - Boulevard of Broken Dreams vs. 63. Evanescence - Lithium 3. Muse - Stockholm Syndrome vs. 67. Lostprophets - Wake Up (Make a Move) 4. Foo Fighters - Best of You vs. 68. Goo Goo Dolls - Here Is Gone 5. Evanescence - The Only One vs. 60. Mute Math - Plan B 6. Switchfoot - Dare You to Move vs. 59. Coldplay - Fix You 7. Puddle of Mudd - Blurry vs. 58. Linkin Park - Breaking the Habit 8. Evanescence - My Immortal vs. 57. Mad at Gravity - Walk Away 9. All-American Rejects - Move Along vs. 73. Timbaland f/Keri Hilson - The Way I Are 10. 3 Doors Down - When I'm Gone vs. 74. Jimmy Eat World - The Middle 11. Switchfoot - Happy Is a Yuppie Word vs. 54. No Doubt - It's My Life 12. Matchbox Twenty - Bright Lights vs. 76. Our Lady Peace - Somewhere Out There 13. Stone Sour - Through Glass vs. 52. My Chemical Romance - Famous Last Words 14. U2 - City of Blinding Lights vs. 51.

Foo Fighters - All My Life vs. 48. Anberlin - Dismantle.Repair. 18. Coldplay - Clocks vs. 82. Muse - Supermassive Black Hole 19. Killers - Mr. Brightside vs. 83. Falling Up - Escalates 20.

yay only one evanescence song made it through! I don't see how Lostprophets (Although a great song) beat Speed of Sound.

Switchfoot - Dare You to Move vs. 59.

Puddle of Mudd - Blurry vs. 58. Linkin Park - Breaking the Habit 8. Evanescence - My Immortal vs. 57. Mad at Gravity - Walk Away (but kinda cool that "Walk Away" made it onto the second round)9. All-American Rejects - Move Along vs. 73. Timbaland f/Keri Hilson - The Way I Are (two #1s on my chart. "The Way I Are" barely wins here due to minor burnout on "Move Along".)10. 3 Doors Down - When I'm Gone vs. 74. Jimmy Eat World - The Middle 11. Switchfoot - Happy Is a Yuppie Word vs. 54.

Switchfoot - Meant to Live vs. 36. Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Maps ("Maps" peaked 14 spots lower on my chart than "Meant to Live", but the latter loses due to severe overplay.)30.

Round 2 results:  For the matchups tied at 3, I advanced the song that I didn't vote for (just as in the last round.) I'm shocked that an album track -- from Trapt! -- can so handily knock off the greatest gainer within the Alternative top 40. (My vote kept it from being a shutout...) ROUND 3Since only 4 of my top 14 survived, I'm forced to move the surviving high seeds to the top. 2. Green Day - Boulevard of Broken Dreams vs. 76. Our Lady Peace - Somewhere Out There 6. Switchfoot - Dare You to Move vs. 74. Jimmy Eat World - The Middle 8. Evanescence - My Immortal vs. 68. Goo Goo Dolls - Here Is Gone 9. All-American Rejects - Move Along vs. 67. Lostprophets - Wake Up (Make a Move) 15. Michelle Branch - All You Wanted vs. 64. Jimmy Eat World - Work 16. Lostprophets - Last Train Home vs. 60. Mute Math - Plan B 17. Foo Fighters - All My Life vs. 58. Linkin Park - Breaking the Habit 18. Coldplay - Clocks vs. 54. No Doubt - It's My Life 19. Killers - Mr. Brightside vs. 52. My Chemical Romance - Famous Last Words 20. Michelle Branch - Are You Happy Now vs. 51. My Chemical Romance - I'm Not Okay (I Promise) 22. Snow Patrol - Hands Open vs. 44. OutKast - Roses 28. Trapt - Lost Realist vs. 42. Incubus - Dig 30. Finch - What It Is to Burn vs. 41. The Ataris - The Boys of Summer 31. Mute Math - Chaos vs. 40. OutKast - Hey Ya 33.

16. Lostprophets - Last Train Home vs. 60. Mute Math - Plan B
17. Foo Fighters - All My Life vs. 58. Linkin Park - Breaking the Habit (Another close one. I guess I like the songs about the same, but I respect the Foo Fighters more.)
