Hrrm?

I'm definitely going to have to go with Johnny Cash again. Yes, TLC was great when I was in middle school...But Johnny Cash is the man.

[Uncle Xyzzy]

Err, Johnny Cash.

Easy choice.

[Asthaloth]

If my ipod hadn't formatted itself I would quote some Random Cash song here.
It did, so I cannot.
And The man comes around would just be cheating as it's mostly biblical text.

Still, Cash > Everything. Ever.

Abraham Lincoln > Johnny Cash.

Not in music, as Lincoln never released an oppurtunity (he was too busy single handedly the strongest nation in the world), but in everything else.

[whhattisthiss]

Lol, no comparison. Johnny Cash FTW!

*Refutes this*
But hey, History of the world isn't the point of this.

Cash > Everyone including Lincoln and William the Conquerer.

[ahoteinrun]

Well whats hillarious is I actually don't hate TLC. However. That being said, i'm much more fond of Cash (he's so awesome) then anyone involved with TLC.

Hrrm?

...thanks. XD
(word word)

[Matterbug]

Hmmm, I think Johnny Cash is overrated.

I don't want no scrubs, so I'm going to vote for TLC.

[Combusken BG]

Johnny Cash as the first that comes to my mind when hearing TLC is Tables, Ladders and Chairs, oh my!

[Ammer]

TLC; I've grown up with them, and they're amazing.

I'd like to recommend Within Temptation for future Versus rounds! Thanks!

[Kidwaiy]

TLC gets my vote this time.

[Kugetsu]

JC is bringing sexy back, TLC isn't.

Oh wait, wrong poll... still Johnny Cash it is. I only like perhaps one or two songs from TLC...
