Time After Time (AnnElise) gets my vote. It wanders around a bit too much and just doesn't do a whole lot for me.

Letter Never Sent

"Time After Time was my least favorite song!"

It's time for that letter to finally get sent...

...out of the Interference R.E.M. Survivor competition!!!

hahahahah holy shit.

 

[corianderstem]

I'm voting for Second Guessing instead of Letter Never Sent.

I used to hate Time After Time, but it's grown on me over time.

 

[djerdap]

Rockville. I always hated that song, too country for my tastes.

Time After Time and Second Guessing are great little numbers, on the other hand.

 

[lazarus]

Ahh, looks like this album might take longer than expected...

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

When LM put up that first album poll, like 65 people voted on it. We're only getting about a dozen votes each round now. What the funk is up with that?

 

[lazarus]

Well Reckoning is probably the least-heard album along with Fables, so that's not very surprising.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

We got the same weak amount of votes in the Murmur rounds, too.

I'm just weird when it comes to these Survivor things. I know that there are more than 12 people that come to B&C that are familiar enough with these songs to come in here and drop a vote in for our little game.

Oh well. I guess all I can do is keep putting in my vote. And try not to cry too much about it when my head hits the pillow at night.

 

[U2inUtah]

I voted Time After Time
I really liked Letter Never Sent after I heard the live version from Dublin in 07

 

[liamcool]

Second Guessing.

 

[lazarus]

Liam, that avatar is fucking HILARIOUS.

Wrap that cord around his willy first and you have iHutchence.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Yeah, Liam, you need to vote in this Survivor more often. And tell your friend Axver to start voting in it, too. I'll give him a very expensive bottle of Tawny Port if he does.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

Rockville. I always hated that song, too country for my tastes.

 

[MMP]

So. Central Rain
(I'm Sorry)

 

[Axver]

Yeah, Liam, you need to vote in this Survivor more often. And tell your friend Axver to start voting in it, too. I'll give him a very expensive bottle of Tawny Port if he does.

I'll be expecting that tawny port now.

Check out the beard that our boy Stipe is rockin these days -

Hot or not? I kinda like it.

 

[lazarus]

Oh boy.

It needs to go. Seriously.

Makes him look like 10 years older.

 

[phanan]

Um, no.

What, is he trying to look like Sting does now or something?

 

[corianderstem]

Oh, Michael.

Honey, no.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Haha, you guys are funny. He said during his interview on Jimmy Fallon the other day that he'll be shaving it soon. You can watch the interview here - Hulu - Late Night with Jimmy Fallon: Tue, Mar 10, 2009 - Watch the full episode now. (it jumps straight to the Stipe segment)

Check out the huge smile on his face when he's introduced. Seems like such a sweet guy. I love him.

 

[lazarus]

Unfortunately, I've sworn to never intentionally cast eyes upon that ANNOYING, UNFUNNY FUCK Jimmy Fallon and his show, so I'll have to trust your word.
