Please vote for your FAVOURITE song(s).
The top SIX songs from this era proceed to the Early 1980s Quarter Final.
Welcome to the Boy era round in Best Song Survivor v2! The object of this game is to find Interference's favourite U2 songs. Each album will be featured in a single round with the non-album tracks from its era. The amount of finalists from each era is based on seeding from the latest U2 Album Survivor. These rounds will last 48 hours and will be multiple choice polls where you vote for your favourite tracks (within reason). A suggestion is to vote for the amount of tracks that will proceed to the next round, although this is not a hard and fast rule. Remember that there is a tradeoff: if you vote for more songs, the power of each of your votes is dampened, but if you vote for fewer songs, you get to spread your influence less far.
Only original U2 songs with official studio releases will compete. However, you are free to vote on the basis of live versions, alternate versions, remixes, etc., as in the normal version of Survivor. Basically whatever you think best represents the song in your mind.
In Best Album Survivor, Achtung Baby edged out The Joshua Tree for #1. Only three voters did not cast one of their votes for Achtung; only six did not cast one of their votes for JT. Meanwhile, October, RAH, and Passengers tied for the wooden spoon. Interference's ranking was:
(Top five qualifiers receive seven songs in finals.)
1. Achtung Baby - 50 votes
2. The Joshua Tree - 47
3. The Unforgettable Fire - 34
4. Zooropa - 32
5. Pop - 29
(Middle four qualifiers receive six songs in finals.)
