NOTES
*Tiebreaker: I asked my son which song titles he liked better. That's how those winners were determined. He knows none of those songs. He's not a metalhead...yet!

**Somehow, I left the mighty beast White Lion off of this past week's poll. No worry though, as both of their hit songs will appear in the second round in this bracket (which we'll see in three weeks).
