the final round for rattle and hum had when love comes to town getting the boot. this means love rescue me wins for this album, and will go on to compete in the finals later.

full results:
love rescue me: 33
when love comes to town: 56

the rules are pretty easy. this is for worst song U2 survivor. this means you vote OFF your FAVOURITE song. the goal here is to see what is the least-liked U2 song for each album, and narrow it down to least-liked song ever.

ROUND ONE (ACHTUNG BABY):
- zoo station
- even better than the real thing
- one
- until the end of the world
- who's gonna ride your wild horses
- so cruel
- the fly
- mysterious ways
- trying to throw your arms around the world
- ultraviolet (light my way)
- acrobat
- love is blindness

you are to vote based on the studio version of that particular song. do not vote based on how it sounds live or how it sounded remixed.

timing of the poll: there are so many rounds, it really makes sense to keep each individual round as a timed ONE day poll. when we get to the end of each round, the final poll will last two days, to give more people a chance to vote.

ties will be broken by eliminating both songs from the poll UNLESS we are in the top five. even if there are three tied, all three will be eliminated. any more of a tie (four-way tie, etc.), then we will have a tiebreaker round.

also, when we get down to the final round (the winner of each previous round going against each other), these polls will last two days. the same tiebreaking rules apply.

remember, vote for what you consider to be the strongest song, or your favourite. this competition is to determine the WORST U2 song.
 
woo hoo! yes...finally on achtung baby!

until the end of the world...easy choice!
 
tough choice between The Fly and Until the end of the world. two kick ass songs, the two better songs from the 90's

have to go with THE FLY :bow::rockon:

Ack -- so many great songs!

Well, my favorite is Love Is Blindness. I have a feeling I'll need to vote for it many times.

Hopefully not too many times.

love is blindness,
i don't want to see.....


:drool:
 
Oh my god I don't know if I can do this Survivor. It's like some nightmare version of Sophie's Choice. Only in this instance I have 12 children and can only save 11.

Anyway, Acrobat gets my vote this time.
 
This is a hard one--they are all my favorite U2 songs... But I'll pick "One" because that was my first favorite.
 
sorry i made a mistake.
i was thinking of the best song survivor and i voted for trying to throw your arms around the world, which obviously is not my favourite song.
if anyone can change my vote to until the end of the world i will be pleased.
 
This thread is wrong in so many ways. Some questions are best left unasked.
 
Can't we just skip to the end where Tryin' to Throw Your Arms is the "winner"? :wink:

Have to go with One, but it wasn't an easy choice.
