Not a boxing game (sorry Callahan FBC...) you just pick the best then pit another two songs, not only FB or pixies, any songs.

In this case, I'll take The Cars over Iggy. "Candy-O" was one of their best songs and "Candy" isn't how I like to think of Jim Osterberg.

President Of What? is the first track on Chords. Even though it's what I think is the best dcfc song ive heard, i think POW and TMO are evenly matched. They have cool initials, too.

I don't think I'm familiar with the DCFC song, but I doubt it could be better than the FF song. So I say "Take Me Out."
