Best Song Survivor: No Line On The Horizon Round VI

[Axver]

Please vote for your LEAST FAVOURITE song.

Welcome to the sixth round for No Line On The Horizon in Best Song Survivor! The object of this game is to find Interference's favourite U2 song. To do so, songs will be eliminated album-by-album in 24 hour long rounds to leave the favourites to contest a final that will determine the very favourite. The top three songs from this album will proceed to the 2000s semi-final. Only original U2 songs with official studio releases will compete. Due to dominating past tournaments and the inevitable likelihood that they will do the same this time, Where The Streets Have No Name and One are not in the tournament and can be assumed default equal #1 over and above the ultimate winner.

In the previous round, White As Snow got ousted.

Breathe by a mile.

 

[Mr. V]

I think I'm gonna jump on the UC bandwagon. I love it still.

 

[emzz]

Noo... not White as Snow
Voted Unknown Caller because of the chorus.. But it's getting really hard to choose!

 

[phillyfan26]

Unknown Caller by a light year.

 

[coolian2]

i'll see how khan votes

 

[OrARoundabout]

Breathe by a mile.

 

[alanah]

Voted 'No Line On The Horizon', but hey people, I love this song.

 

[2861U2]

MOS. This best not make the finals.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

i'll see how khan votes

mercy rulings ftw

 

[coolian2]

mercy rulings ftw

:suckup:

 

[Y2K]

Breathe. The vocal cadence by Bono seems like some kind of cruel joke.

 

[Mr. V]

A lot of people have expressed their hate for UC's chorus. i kinda get it, but it still doesn't annoy me, not in the slightest. I'm truly puzzled because on paper, this is something that would not even remotely tickle my fancy.

Fez Being Born

Lyrics

Fez Being Born

Lyrics

Um, what? Lyrics only matter if the song tends toward lyrical focus. Fez-Being Born is not. In fact, the most powerful parts aren't lyrical (Bono's "Oh-OHHHHH!" parts).

 

[coolian2]

btw, as of next round i'm going to vote to save the title track.

I have a question: in the beginning of this, we decided that separate versions of songs would all be lumped into one (i.e. Lady With The Spinning Head UVI would be considered the same as Lady With The Spinning Head Extended Dance Remix). Does this mean that NLOTH I and NLOTH II are considered one in the same here? Or will NLOTH II be in the b-sides round?

 

[coolian2]

:takes notes:

excellent, so we've definitely got the same "opinion".

i like the title song a lot anyway. good thing for that!

as far as i'm concerned, they're different songs and should be considered as such.

ah, what a lucky "coincidence".

are we allowed to feel this way?

 

[cobl04]

I still haven't heard nloth 2, or winter, for that matter..

Sixth consecutive vote for Magnificent.

 

[the tourist]

But the Electrical Storms and the Lady With The Spinning Heads are different songs and they're considered as one.

i don't think they should be either

 

[intedomine]

Unknown Caller hate is depressing me. Looks like it's gone.

No Line On The Horizon is the weakest of this bunch.

 

[the tourist]

i don't think they should be either

But they were. We were supposed to pick the one we liked better or something. Anyway, if we're doing that here, I'll be voting to save the title track too.

NLOTH II is in the b-sides round.
