We're sticking with the EPs sending two apiece for now. I just couldn't bring myself to change it...compelling arguements were made, but in the end, I just wasn't convinced that it was neccessary. I disagree with the notion that every single b-side would be blown away in the final draw before any of the a-sides. There are a handful of them I'd put ahead of a handul of the a-sides that have been chosen.

This was a tough decision, but I went with my gut - which says that allowing the EPs two songs will make for a more interesting competition in the end.
 
After listening to the EP I think Permanent Daylight should win this...

And a question: Is "True Love Waits" in this competition? It was on the IMBW compilation, but it's just a live recording not studio sooo...

I hope it is... It's my favorite song at the moment :drool:
 
The voting for this EP is beyond me. The top 3 songs are Permanent Daylight (thank God it doesn't have a vote), Lewis Mistreated (got voted off already??!) and The Trickster (why the hell does it have 3 votes??!).
 
Lozenge of Love

The Trickster??? That's easily one of the best Radiohead B-Sides. Jonny's guitar work is amazing.
 
Hey, gang. Vote for Punchdrunk and Permanent Daylight now, as to ensure a double elimination and the speeding up of these EP draws.
 
I can't believe what I'm seeing.

Results like this make me not want to continue the competition(don't worry I will).

For years I have read the opinions of many on many RH boards and general music boards alike and when the topic of RH b-sides came up, Trickster was always mentioned as one of the best. It was almost universal. And now you people want to eliminate it. Fucking unbelievable.

And to add insult to injury, one of my personal favorites, Lozenge Of Love, is tied for the elimination as of now as well.

Fuckin' A.

Come on people, VOTE FOR PUNCHDRUNK!

:pray:
 
12.5% of people announce their vote for Trickster. :| Some people are just ashamed they dislike one of Radiohead's best b-sides. OR there's something screwy going on. :|

I voted for it, and I'm not ashamed in the least. It's a B-Side for a reason - it's not very good.

But yeah, it's all a big fuckin' conspiracy cause a song you like is about to go. :rolleyes:

You mean humans voted off House Of Cards? :huh: I thought a cyborg Thom Yorke programmed to destroy the human race was responsible.
 
Yay! Let's all try to vote off ALL of Radiohead's rock songs! That way we can chop off their balls completely!

You realize this vote isn't going to ACTUALLY take Trickster off your copy of the EP right?
 
Someone else want to start it then?

I'll do it, man. I don't give a fuck.
