[corianderstem]

For this album, polls will remain open only 24 hours.

VOTE FOR YOUR LEAST FAVORITE SONG

Polls will remain open for 24 hours, unless one song has taken enough of a beating after a day or so, in which case we'll call it an act of mercy and move on to the next round.

Songs in this round:

- United Colours
- Slug
- Your Blue Room
- Always Forever Now
- A Different Kind Of Blue
- Beach Sequence
- One Minute Warning
- Theme From Let's Go Native

Criteria for song selection (at least for the albums): anything on the regular pressings of the Best Of 1980-1990, Best Of 1990-2000, and U2:18 is excluded.

 

[phillyfan26]

A Different Kind of Blue

 

[pat132]

One Minute Warning

 

[Axver]

Got to be ADKOB now. Everything else here is fucking brilliant.

 

[phanan]

A Different Kind of Blue

 

[Diemen]

Close it now. Bye-bye, blue.

 

[No spoken words]

A Different Kind of Blue

 

[bonocomet]

ADKOB FINALLY.

 

[fandangamoq]

We should just give it to Your Blue Room. Everything else here is fucking garbage.

Fixed.

 

[Axver]

Fixed.

You have no appreciation of quality music.

Slug's the rightful winner anyway.

 

[the tourist]

A Different Kind of Blue. I'm surprised it isn't unanymous.

 

[LemonMelon]

United Colours

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

Slug's the rightful winner anyway.

FTW.

 

[Diemen]

Slug's the rightful winner anyway.

Pfffffffft.

 

[LemonMelon]

No. Slug is definitely not the best song here. Too repetitive.

Your Blue Room and Beach Sequence FTW

 

[the tourist]

No. Slug is definitely not the best song here. Too repetitive.

Not the best--the second best.

 

[Varitek]

ADKOB finally.

Let's go for a mercy rule.

 

[bonocomet]

So what will everyone vote next? OMW or TFLGN or a tie to drop them both?

 

[Axver]

Let's Go Native is next on my list.

 

[Varitek]

OMW. But I've got a lot of missing pieces on my depth chart because ADKOB and OMW didn't get voted off soon enough.

 

[the tourist]

Let's Go Native or United Colours is next for me.

 

[SeattleVertigo]

Wake me up when it gets down to the last two or three songs. <wink>

 

[cobl04]

Gotta go for A Different Kind of Blue Here, basically because it doesn't go anywhere at all. United Colors is next, and from then on it gets tough.

 

[An Cat Gav]

I love ADKOB too much, so creepy!
Always Forever Now.

 

[Aardvark747]

Got to be ADKOB now. Everything else here is fucking brilliant.

Pretty much agree with that!

...blue

Since this thread isn't really being used at the moment for anything important... May I ask the resident setlist/bootleg fanatics a completely OT question that I can't find the answer to atm?

I have the ZooTV 1992-08-16 - Washington, DC show, from 2 different bootlegs and neither have Can't Help Falling in Love which is listed as the 22nd song. Was it not recorded? Am I just missing it? Please help, thanks

(sorry for the OT)

 

[Varitek]

I have the soundboard and I don't have it either...hmmm

 

[Alisaura]

Eek... I accidentally nearly voted for Your Blue Room. I just went for the first "Blue" I saw and nearly got the wrong one...

Bye bye ADKOB.

Next... United Colours or Let's Go Native.... Then it gets tricky.

I recall suspecting that it wasn't actually done, but didn't make any changes to U2VT as I couldn't prove things either way. To tell you the truth, I then went and forgot all about it. I'd like some clarification on the matter too.

I just listened to LIB. It doesn't sound like the end of a concert. There's no wind down for the crowd, no goodnight from the band.
