Finals: U2 Singles Survivor - Round Two

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 TWO 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 not voting yet, just in case I need to use my vote to protect anything (such as A Celebration).

11 O'Clock Tick Tock.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

why is everyone voting for a celebration!

shake! shake!

 

[Neenie]

This was hard, but I decided to vote off EBTTRT.

 

[the tourist]

Walk On.

 

[beli]

Walk On (various edits)/Stuck In A Moment (acoustic)/Elevation (Vandit Club Mix)/Stay (live)/Where The Streets Have No Name (live)/Gone (live)


again

 

[martha]

These idiots who are voting off A Celebration are probably newbies who either have never even heard the song and/or they don't realize it was a only released as a single.

 

[annatheduck]

Vertigo, for the billionth time....

 

[anitram]

I want Sometimes outta here soooo bad, just because I have a real fear it's gonna sneak in under the radar and take this thing again, just like in the HTDAAB Survivor.

 

[Pero]

A Celebration is not that good. GET OUT

 

[theedge111]

A Celebration

 

[bono_man2002]

EBTTRT

 

[miss becky]

Who's Gonna yadda yadda

staring at the sun

 

[TheRooster]

Ok, we need to get organized and save A Celebration. We need to agree to vote on Popheart or something here.

 

[Neenie]

We need to agree to vote on Popheart or something here.

Not Popheart

 

[Axver]

If Wild Horses, Stuck, or Walk On fails to go in the next round, I will be very disappointed in the voting tendencies of you lot.

 

[stagman]

What's with the 5 votes for popheart already ...that is sacrilige!

 

[BigMacPhisto]

Voted for Pop Heart in order to save "A Celebration".......the Pop Heart EP isn't that great to be honest........some good live tunes, but I'd rather hear an interesting B-Side or two......

 

[Aardvark747]

Vertigo

 

[Stefan]

Desire and Staring At The Sun should go soon. Hallelujah and North And South Of The River is some of the worst U2 have ever recorded in my opinion.

 

[boystupidboy]

wild horses again..

 

[Aardvark747]

wild horses again..

I considered that one...but I just love Paint it Black on there! Not keen at all on the '..Falling in love' version on it tho. Not a patch on the live performences...

 

[babyman]

a celebration

 

[Axver]

I had a nice dream that 23 people voted for WGRYWH.

Unfortunately, 19 of the people required to make my dream come true have not fulfilled their mission.

Here's hoping the dream comes true, next round!

Must apologise for the late start of the next round - I've been sorting out all kinds of junk here and didn't notice the time. New round in the making now, though!
