    Is that a surprise? Lol! YKMN is far superior in every way I can think of.

    Absolutely not, haha. do_me_nicely seems to go against the grain a lot and pick the ones many other users don't. I agree, YKMN beats AWTD any day.

    You can't really compare the drumming between YKMN and AWTD, because one of the big instruments in AWTD is the drums, along with the guitar and piano. I thought YKMN was more heavily focused on the guitar.
  • @SirHenry, Cornell is, in fact, a drummer, but he didn't do the drums on YKMN.
    Well, he may be able to play the drums but that's not obviously what he is known for.

    Not a fan of Jack White anything to be truthful, nor Alicia Keys for that matter.

    Consider the source of who voted for AWTD.

    I think he was in the 80's. I skimmed a biography of him, and apparently in the late 80's, he was a drummer in a band? Correct me if I'm wrong. Still, definitely not what he is known for, so it's hard to compare the drums on YKMN to AWTD.

    And yes, that source is quite unique with his/her opinions.

    Sadly not. I'm just not musically inclined in the slightest. I would love to pick up a guitar or harmonica or something and know what I'm doing, but I don't. Hey, maybe someday.

    No contest. You know my name is clearly the far superior song.
    It's not even a contest really. Is there anyone who likes Another way to die?
    Come on, reveal yourself.

    I kept YKMN on repeat for months after I first heard it. I loved the song, it got me into Chris Cornell's other work. I like the instrumental version of AWTD, but overall didn't really like the song anywhere near as much as YKMN.

    Haha, thank you, @Virage.

    Ok, honestly YKMN edges out AWTD but mainly on production and performance...and that's only because the vocal performance on AWTD is so terribly bad. I'd take Jack White ANYDAY over Chris Cornell. I just don't care for Cornell personally: 90's alternatwang I find boring; there's no soul behind the emoting.

    David Arnold adds a lot to YKMN, and had it been just say, a Soundgarden song alone, it would have been pitiful. Get a better singer on AWTD and I would be hard pressed to rank YKMN above it.

    Yes @Creasy, one vote for AWTD. From @do_me_nicely . Apparently it's hard to listen to, but in a good way. I can't make any sense of that. I hope you can...

    @0Brady, wish I could, but I can't. It's like saying "These tiger bite wounds are extremely painful...but in a comfortable, relaxing way."

    I saw Quantum Of Solace for only the second time not so long ago and I had to turn off audio for the title sequence, it is simply unbearable I find now, or was that way back in 2008 when I first saw it, it is merely an abomination of a title track, an unmitigated disaster, Keys absolutely sucks as a musical 'artist' and the last time I managed to get through it, I don't remember White featured much at all. The Lyrics make little sense some feel - 'Another ringer with the slick trigger finger for Her Majesty,
    Another one with the golden tongue poisoning your fantasy,
    Another bill from a killer, turned a thriller to a tragedy'
    WTF ?

    Horrible, awful mash of wailing and a poor attempt at music that was doomed from day one and absurd lyrics that add up to less than nothing, I'd go as far to say that I hate it, I think I may never hear it again if I have my way, it is awful

    And then we have Cornell's You Know my name...

    what a difference. Good sounds, clear lyrics, lead singer from Soundgarden, (what more could you ask for) and a really good theme intro, that is worlds apart from the god awful crap that it is sandwiched between

    You Know My Name wins, it not only wins, it blasts it's rival into the depths of the galaxy and places of the universe that time forgot.. Common sense has spoken
