Heat #1: Eighties Singles - Round Seven

is now open. Please vote by clicking in the circle next to the single you like the LEAST on the electronic poll above. Thank you.

Please be aware that you are voting on the WHOLE single release, not the individual a-side. In the same way that album survivor involved whole albums with their full complement of tracks competing against each other, singles survivor will involve whole singles with their full complement of tracks competing against each other.

This is a ONE day timed electronic poll.

Instructions:

Voting

Each round please vote off the single you like the least. The single with the most amount of votes is the the least popular for this round. Voting is anonymous. It's not compulsory to state your preference in the thread.

Next round all the singles are listed again, minus the single that receives the most amount of votes this round. And again please vote for your least favourite single from the selection.

And on we go for many rounds until there's only two singles left. In the last round you vote for your favourite out of the two. The last single standing is the most popular (or the least unpopular depending on how you look at it).

Tie Breaker

In the event of a tie, both or all tied singles will be instantly eliminated from the competition.

Have fun!
 
I'm torn. A Celebration? Gloria? Angel Of Harlem?

I'm going with Gloria. All of the other singles have original b-sides (or at least original recordings of covers). Gloria, however, just has a measly live track. It's the weakest single there and should go.
 
Wow, voting's very spread out at this early stage. Do we have a close one on our hands? This may be exciting.
 
Man, these are going way too fast - I keep missing rounds.

That said, A Celebration. I just hate Party Girl. :angry: :wink:

One a day! I'll slow them down once we're into the finals.
 
Angel of Ho-hum...

Hey, who's voting for Two Hearts and why? Just curious...

I haven't voted for it yet, but I will in a minute. I really dislike that song and the B-sides aren't too interesting as well. At the very least, they're also available on the Sunday Bloody Sunday single.

So, THBAO :down:
 
Gloria, cut half of Adam's Bass solo [if the version used in the video IS on the 7"] and the B-side is just another live version! :(
 
Wow, talk about a low turnout ... what happened to the rounds with 80+ voters?
