Best Hard Rock Anthem of Our Generation Round 1 Update

After an early run by Faith No More's Epic, Pour Some Sugar On Me by Def Leppard roared back to a 71%-29% victory. We are officially halfway through Round 1. Keep up the voting! Next up is Livin' On a Prayer by Bon Jovi vs. Beautiful People by Marilyn Manson.

Note: I will not be having a match-up tomorrow, as I will be at what I hope will be an Obama victory rally.
