Rest of U2 Survivor: Achtung Baby - Round 4

[corianderstem]

No one wanted to ride my wild horses.

VOTE FOR YOUR LEAST FAVORITE SONG

Polls will remain open for 48 hours, unless one song has taken enough of a beating after a day or so, in which case we'll call it an act of mercy and move on to the next round.

Songs in this round:

- Zoo Station
- The Fly
- Ultra Violet
- Acrobat
- Love Is Blindness

Criteria for song selection (at least for the albums): anything on the regular pressings of the Best Of 1980-1990, Best Of 1990-2000, and U2:18 is excluded.

 

[corianderstem]

Baby, baby, baby, shut the hell up.

 

[2861U2]

Baby, baby, baby, shut the hell up.

Indeed.

 

[bonocomet]

ZooStation or Ultraviolet

A few weeks ago my 1st instinct would have been to vote off Ultraviolet, but these polls always seem to make me start questioning myself

 

[Axver]

You all know my vote by now.

 

[Diemen]

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright...to let this song die.

 

[No spoken words]

Love is Blindness.

 

[pat132]

Time to die, Ultraviolet I can't believe Wild Horses is gone

 

[phanan]

Zoo Station, again.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Zoo Station.

 

[dabiggestu2fan]

Acrobat for me! I love ultraviolet, zoo station, the fly and love is blindness. I also really like acrobat but one has to go and i like that one the least

 

[Axver]

I'm surprised at the Zoo Station voting - didn't it win Achtung when we did Non-Single Survivor?

 

[phillyfan26]

Zoo Station (again) - shitty mix on an underachieving album.

 

[martha]

Love is Blindness

My vote would be different five minutes from now. I like them all.

 

[bonocomet]

Went with Zoo Station... always wished I could actually hear it better.

No, Acrobat won.

TTTYAATW and So Cruel went first, same as now. In Round 3, Ultraviolet had just a few more votes than Zoo Station, which kept it alive for the finale.

 

[Axver]

No, Acrobat won.

Thanks for clearing that up. For some reason, I thought that Acrobat had failed to proceed.

Bingo. The mix eliminates the guitar in the chorus, which is what carries it in the live setting. Too much random noise. Like a lot of Achtung Baby.

 

[SeattleVertigo]

Hmmmmmm. Not sure. Between Zoo Station and Ultraviolet. Will need to think about it.

 

[RavenBlue]

This was really tough.

I went with LIB

 

[HolyMeximofoJoe]

Too much random noise. Like a lot of Achtung Baby.

That's what I love so much about Achtung Baby for some reason... Sounds unfinished, sounds like there was some throwaway stuff, sounds rushed... but dammit it sounds awesome

 

[the tourist]

Zoo Station. Not only is it my least favourite left, but it also helps save Ultraviolet.

 

[coolian2]

Baby, baby, baby, light my way out of here

 

[the tourist]

This one is going to be close.

 

[Lila64]

Ran across a live version of Ultraviolet, if anyone is interested

[fandangamoq]

Zoo Station

(take that Ax!....but seriously UV is next for sure)

 

[Mr. V]

now it's time for Ultraviolet to go.

 

[LemonMelon]

You're killing off ZOO STATION???? WTF is wrong with you people??? Ultraviolet is a menace and needs to be destroyed.

 

[Saracene]

Ultraviolet.

 

[liamcool]

Who the hell voted for Love Is Blindness?

And Acrobat can go fall off a cliff.
