Great Pop Culture Debate host Eric Rezsnyak explains how we created the bracket for our episode devoted to the best songs that were popular in 2015 -- which includes some songs released in 2014 -- and walks you through the Round 1 match-ups. The main episode will release on Tuesday, April 22, wherever you listen to podcasts.
