Luminous Times reaches, eventually, an amazing place - the words, the vocal performance, the band reaching the crescendo. It's top 10 at least!
Walk to the Water for me

Never saw the same thing a lot of you saw in Mercy. Maybe it's just because the mix sounds overcompressed and dead to me.
 
Yeah, Walk to the Water again. It's also time The Crystal Ballroom moved on.
 
Absolutely will not vote for Luminous Times or Walk to the Water.

Silver and Gold is in my sights to go. Never loved it, particularly in comparison to the brilliant remaining JT bsides.
 
Fingers crossed Walk to the Water is out of here. I'm horrified Luminous Times is currently second.

Assuming WTTW is gone, next round we need to pile in on The Crystal Ballroom.
 
I have voted to save Walk To The Water many times in previous rounds, but now I must vote for it to save Luminous Times.
 
It is scary that people are looking to expel Luminous Times so early.

Having said that, I'm not going to jump on Electrical Storm to save it. I'd be willing to push out Silver & Gold next round. Studio version is blahh. Followed by Stateless.
 
So I completely lost track of time and forgot to post the new poll. It's almost 7PM where I am, so I think I'm going to just skip today and post it earlier tomorrow afternoon.

Sorry all.
 
That's what you meant, right? :wink:

:lol: Like hell I do! It's possibly top five of what's left. And as much as it would pain me, I am prepared to jump on Luminous Times to protect it.

Like I said above, The Crystal Ballroom is where we ought to be looking. Or Silver and Gold or Stateless, they've both had good runs and I won't be sad to lose them at this point in the tournament.
 
The Crystal Ballroom is a great song (that should have been a single to fill the gap between Invisible and SOI since it wouldn't have fit on the latter) but I'm happy to jump on it to keep luminous times stick around.

And how the hell is The Three Sunrises getting 2 votes at this stage??
 
I've got no computer access for a few days... If namk doesn't mind dotting in mine it would be WttW.
