Heat #2: Nineties/2000s Singles - Round Nine

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!

 

[Axver]

Not sure which to vote for yet. I think I will go for Elevation. I'd like Please to make the final 30 anyway.

Gotta stick with EBTTRT

Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses

*sigh*

 

[Lancemc]

I really would like to see The Fly get the boot. I see it as the weakest overall single release up there. The next on my list would be Sometimes.

I reckon The Fly is sensational. The Fly and Alex Descends Into Hell are two of my favourites.

No way, The Fly is brilliant!

 

[Lancemc]

I've been voting purely on b-side material not the actual song released. And I feel, out of what's left, The Fly has the weakest b-side material on it.

Gotcha! I've also been voteing on the strength of the b-sides, i love Alex Decends into Hell. I'm not a fan of all of the remixes.

 

[BigMacPhisto]

Voting for the "Please" single again......just not enough on it to justify it staying instead of the other singles...

 

[glenn]

Looks like this one will be close.

 

[bono_man2002]

Voting for Please Again...just dont like the Remixes of Dirty Day.

 

[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

 

[Axver]

Stop voting for Please!

I love the Please single. The Dirty Day mixes are better than the original on Zooropa, especially Bitter Kiss, and are the only remixes I'll listen to (besides the Dub Mix of Wire and one or two others I'm forgetting right now). And the Skysplitter Dub of I'm Not Your Baby is weird awesomeness.

Considering past voting trends, I'll probably end up voting Elevation to save Please, and I probably would have voted for it anyway. Though I'll vote for Please to save The Fly.

 

[bono_man2002]

Say Please, and we might

 

[Axver]

Please don't vote for Please!

PLEASE DON'T VOTE FOR PLEASE!

Thanks.

 

[Popmartijn]

Sometimes...

BTW, is there a live version of Sometimes released? Or is that the DVD-version?

Yeah, A video of the Performance on Radio on last November.

Elevation

 

[Axver]

Elevation

 

[the tourist]

I don't know. I think The Fly, Even Better Than The Real Thing, and Beautiful Day all need to be voted off. All the other rocking songs have been.

 

[the tourist]

Oh, and Vertigo.

 

[Axver]

I don't know. I think The Fly, Even Better Than The Real Thing, and Beautiful Day all need to be voted off. All the other rocking songs have been.

What about Vertigo?

 

[the tourist]

And I voted Please (again)

 

[Axver]

OK, I'm slow. Move along folks, nothing to see here ...

Oh, and please don't vote for Please. Elevation, thanks.

 

[the tourist]

Wow! You were on that quick! Hahaha, good job!

 

[Axver]

Wow! You were on that quick! Hahaha, good job!

Now can I make you change your mind about Please?

(Yes, I am really, really, REALLY bored. I think my life has devolved into LiveJournal comments and Interference posts.)

 

[the tourist]

Nope, not changing my mind. Good effort though! And if Please loses this round, I promise to not vote for it next round!

Who's gonna ride your wild horses doesn't deserve to be in final 30
