The Rain Song
Over The Hills And Far Away
The Ocean
The Rover
In My Time Of Dying
Ten Years Gone
Wanton Song

One song from Presence will move on to the final draw.

 

[LemonMelon]

For me, For Your Life is the best song here, but we might as well just move on to In Through The Out Door, because Achilles Last Stand will win this with no trouble at all.

Candy Store Rock is shit. Out with it.

 

[phanan]

I prefer Nobody's Fault But Mine, but you're probably right.

Any one of Candy Store Rock, Royal Orleans, or Hots On For Nowhere can go now.

 

[Zoots]

Oh boy I don't even remember how half these songs go! Will have to listen again.

 

[LemonMelon]

Hots On For Nowhere is OK...sort of catchy, but it has no depth and is pretty repetitive.

Candy Store Rock is just a shade worse than Royal Orleans. Everything else here is pretty good/great.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

My tops from this album have always been Achilles, Nobodys Fault, and Tea For One.

I'll go with Royal Orleans here.

 

[Zoots]

I like Achilles but it is a bit boring.

 

[BigMacPhisto]

I voted "Royal Orleans"..."Candy Store Rock" is one of my favorites from this album and the one that followed, actually.

 

[Lila64]

weak album

 

[LemonMelon]

weak album

Agreed. IMO, their worst. ITTOD hasn't aged well, but In The Evening and Fool In The Rain are awesome, better than most anything here.

 

[lazarus]

Achilles' Last Stand is possibly the greatest thing John Bonham ever put to tape.

For that alone, it should move on to the next round.

This album is easy to admire, a bit more difficult to love. It's a hell of a lot better than In Through The Out Door, though.

...because Achilles Last Stand will win this with no trouble at all.

That's what I thought about Kashmir in the last draw.

Royal Orleans for me.

 

[Screwtape2]

Achilles Last Stand.



















No I'm kidding. Royal Orleans.

I'd like to see Achilles and Tea For One do well. My favorites from a pretty bad album.

 

[phillyfan26]

Achilles Last Stand is good, but it is too long.

 

[DaveC]

If Achilles' Last Stand doesn't win this album, I will personally kill you all.

Well, that's a little extreme, but I'll be really sad.

 

[GibsonGirl]

Who voted for "Tea For One" when "Candy Store Rock" and "Royal Orleans" are still here?

 

[GibsonGirl]

If Achilles' Last Stand doesn't win this album, I will personally kill you all.

I'll help you.

Edit: WAIT. You're the one who voted Tea For One?!

 

[DaveC]

That was my bad. Mistake

 

[DaveC]

I'll help you.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Random, but I've always thought Tea For One is a really cool name for a song.

 

[Screwtape2]

Random, but I've always thought Tea For One is a really cool name for a song.

Agreed. It sounds like a Cream song.

 

[FitzChivalry]

Tea For One is just

 

[LemonMelon]

That was my bad. Mistake

What did you intend to vote for?

 

[hardyharhar]

I'll let you all sort out the order

Nobody's Fault > Achilles

 

[DaveC]

What did you intend to vote for?

Leave it, so we can get Presence over with a little quicker.

 

[phanan]

I guess I won't vote so we can have a double elimination.

Unless another vote comes long.

 

[Zoots]

Nobody's Fault > Achilles

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Double elimination!!!
