Finals: U2 Singles Survivor - Round Sixteen

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!

[Axver]

Sunday Bloody Sunday. Yeah, it's a good a-side and Endless Deep is a good b-side, but remixes and edits? It's a very bland, unexciting single that I think should have left a long time ago.

 

[liamcool]

Axver, who's the target this time?

 

[Axver]

Axver, who's the target this time?

Sunday Bloody Sunday. I'm surprised it's still here.

 

[liamcool]

You better not vote for New Year's Day...or I'll turn! Baby.

 

[namkcuR]

Sunday Bloody Sunday.

 

[Axver]

You better not vote for New Year's Day...or I'll turn! Baby.

Its time hasn't come just yet. I'd vote for SBS and IGWSHA before it, and maybe a couple of others too.

 

[liamcool]

The day you vote for New Year's Day is the day I vote for the Unforgettable Fire.

Or maybe not...ah well.

 

[beli]

Liam. You changed your location but not your time.

 

[liamcool]

...really? Oh, okay, I'll fix it next year.

 

[Axver]

Major at your location!

 

[liamcool]

Look outside your window, I'm waving now.

 

[Axver]

I hope you didn't get too wet in the storm yesterday! The box looks a bit soggy ...

 

[liamcool]

I got pissed on, unfortunately. It's not good, but at least I got to sing "Rain".

 

[glenn]

I see the UF fan club has decided to whack Sunday Bloody Sunday, as a result I will have to vote for UF.

 

[liamcool]

That's it. Someone dies, they voted for the second best single here. And it's not UF.

Where The Streets Have No Name/Silver And Gold/The Sweetest Thing (original version)/Race Against Time

Tsk tsk. Realize that your efforts will be futile until the finals most likely.

Ah, so that's the strange warbling I could hear over the sound of the rain!

Possibly but I vote for what I want, not strategies.

 

[TheRooster]

I really hope this if UF's round only so New Year's Day US Remix stays on. Its the only remix that stands up to the original, much better than anything on the UF single.

 

[biff]

I'm sure this has been broached before, but who the hell are all these people who keep voting off UF and all those amazing B-sides?? Or do they think they are voting FOR it?
They are ominously silent in their choice (damn them!) Clearly, they're mental.

 

[timothius]

In revenge for PopHeart going... I now officially turn on UF...

Burn Baby Burn!

 

[D'oh!]

Dammit i actually forgot what i voted for, i think it was IGWSHA.... Gosh with my exams in 3 weeks time thats not a good sign.....

I didnt intend for that to sound narky. My apologies if it does so.

 

[BigMacPhisto]

"SBS" is the obvious choice.

 

[Axver]

Burn Baby Burn!

No offense, but that's just really silly.

 

[the tourist]

Does anyone really need to ask what I've voted for?

 

[the tourist]

In revenge for PopHeart going... I now officially turn on UF...

Burn Baby Burn!

What's your favourite remaining single? Maybe we can vote it off next!
