British egomaniac frontman over American egomaniac frontman.

But let's see Thom do half as well without Jonny Greenwood as Tweedy has done sans Bennett.

I was fearing this might be the semi-final match-up.
I don't hate Wilco, but I'll be sure glad to see them lose it if things hold up.

My only fear is anti-Head sentiment on the Ob might lead to an Arcade Fire victory, if the REG ROCK KREW does not come thru for MMJ.

Wilco v. Arcade Fire has a better chance than Radiohead.

FWIW, He has already released a rather successful solo album.

An impossible choice, but the lyrics on YHF are just a lot better than:

In a little while
I'll be gone
The moment's already passed
Yeah it's gone
And I'm not here
This isn't happening
I'm not here
I'm not here

I guess I am McLuhan warm, old fashioned, by the lyrics on YHF (I know, I know heavy metal drummer is pretty dumb) touch me. The lyrics on Kid A untouch me.
