Pink Floyd Survivor: THE FINALS: Round 1 (with poll)

[cobl04]

Well, this certainly hasn't been as long or as prolific as the Beatles survivor, but it's been sensational all the same.

And now we have finally reached the finals.

Last round, Eugene swung his axe, cos he didn't want to See Emily Play anymore.

Votes
See Emily Play - 9
Careful With That Axe, Eugene - 5
Total votes - 14

Meaning See Emily Play becomes our 131st eliminant (is that a word??) and CWATE becomes our 15th finalist.

Here are the competitors, fighting it out for supremacy.


Piper at the Gates of Dawn - Lucifer Sam

A Saucerful of Secrets - Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun

Music From the Film More - Cymbaline

Ummagumma - Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Moving With a Pict

Atom Heart Mother - Summer '68

Meddle - Echoes

Obscured by Clouds - Free Four

 

[cobl04]

Dark Side of the Moon - Time

Wish You Were Here - Wish You Were Here

Animals - Dogs

The Wall - Comfortably Numb

The Final Cut - The Final Cut

A Momentary Lapse of Reason - Sorrow

The Division Bell - High Hopes

and of course

Careful With That Axe, Eugene representing all the left behinds.

Sorry about that first one people, my computer stuffed up. Here's the real shit!!!

Gotta be a vote for Several Species here.

A 'Best Pink Floyd Song' poll, and there's no Shine on You Crazy Diamond. Some would think that that make this poll null and void.

Not sure what I want to win yet actually.... though I'm leaning strongly towards Dogs, or Wish You Were Here.


Cymbaline is awesome!

 

[Zoots]

Cymbaline. Several Species is too cool to be eliminated first!

 

[LemonMelon]

Cymbaline.

!>!>!>!>!?!?!?!?>!?>!?>!?>?!?!>?!>

Several Species is shit. Like most of Ummagumma.

 

[Zoots]

Several Species is full of interesting sounds and awesomely weird lyrics and all kinds of hidden messages! I Ummagumma for it's weirdness.

This is pretty avant garde isn't it?

 

[GibsonGirl]

I'm not supposed to be online.

Cymbaline It's nice but...pretty ordinary.

Musical brilliance, eh Zoots?

 

[GibsonGirl]

Have you ever tried slowing the song down to it's original speed? If not, try it! It's hilarious and loads of fun.

 

[Zoots]

Musical brilliance, eh Zoots?

Did I say that?

NO.

(or FALSE as you would understand)

I just said I love it for it's weirdness.

 

[LemonMelon]

Who voted for Set The Controls?

 

[phanan]

Species

 

[cobl04]

Several Species isn't horrible... there's one bit that's pretty catchy actually. "Wee!! C-c-c-come back! Wee!! C-c-c-come back!" or whatever it is.

I love the Cymbaline chorus.

 

[Axver]

How could anybody vote for Cymbaline? It's easily one of the Floyd's best songs.

Now, Several Species will fairly deservedly get the boot here, but frankly, I find it more interesting to play than The Final Cut. Words cannot describe how insufferably dull I find every song on The Final Cut to be. I would vote to eliminate that entire album combined before voting for Several Species. It's PF's ATYCLB.

 

[Aardvark747]

Has to be Several Species.

Where was the python quote btw?!

 

[liamcool]

If any of you fucks vote for Summer 68...you are seriously dead.

Let's throw a vote on Comfortably Numb. Easily the worst song here.

 

[Axver]

If any of you fucks vote for Summer 68...you are seriously dead.

Yes. I don't care what wins, as long as its name is Summer '68 or Sorrow.

Let's throw a vote on Comfortably Numb. Easily the worst song here.

Hey, Liam, you know your credibility?

No, didn't think so.

 

[Zoots]

I like Summer 68 too but no way in hell is it gonna win! The winner is gonna be either Time, Comf Numb, WYWH or Dogs.

Btw, liamcool.. your avatar is hilarious!

 

[Tiger Edge]

Dogs.

 

[DaveC]

Let's throw a vote on Comfortably Numb. Easily the worst song here.

What a hilarious, original joke!

 

[cdisantis83]

Lucifer Sam. I simply have never been a fan of Piper.

 

[cobl04]

If any of you fucks vote for Summer 68...you are seriously dead.

Let's throw a vote on Comfortably Numb. Easily the worst song here.

So it was YOU who was the pesky bastard voting for it in the Wall rounds...

As Mr. Hinch would say, "shame, shame, shame."


SOrry to have let you down Aardvark. I'll make it up with two.. I was in a hurry.
