R.E.M. Survivor Final 18

Irishteen · 07-23-2009, 05:18 AM

So three more songs got knocked out in the last round those being Perfect Circle

, Harbourcoat and Nightswimming

x a million

This round we're voting for our TWO LEAST FAVOURITE SONGS, and the bottom two will be taken out, as we're down to 18 songs I think we should be able to get decent votes by voting for TWO SONGS

19. Nightswimming
20. Perfect Circle
21. Harborcoat
22. Orange Crush and It's The End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
24. Life and How to Live It
25. Undertow and Sitting Still
27. Leave
28. Electrolite
29. Imitation of Life
30. Gardening at Night

Finest Worksong and Pretty Persuasion I guess.

Finest Worksong and The One I Love

I guess.

I'm not really liking how this is going so far. Don't know if it is because of the method now, or the lesser amount of votes (or both), but it seems certain songs are getting knocked off earlier than anticipated.

Zoots · 07-23-2009, 11:44 AM

What??? Nightswimming is gone? Come again? People who voted for Nightswimming actually think it is worse than So. Central Rain or Pretty Persuasion?

corianderstem · 07-23-2009, 11:58 AM

I'm fine with Nightswimming being gone early.

GirlsAloudFan · 07-23-2009, 12:45 PM

man, this Survivor tournament went to shit. And quickly. Why are multiple songs being eliminated at once? Whatever.

These Days and Pilgrimage.

corianderstem · 07-23-2009, 12:51 PM

Because there were so many songs in the finals, something had to be done to get the list smaller.

I'm still of the opinion that there was no perfect way to do it, since polls only give you 30 maximum options. We had 45 or so songs.

I'm glad someone jumped in to take it over and take the inevitable heat. I didn't want to deal withit.

I stopped voting days ago, as I don't even want to be associated with this poll and its pathetic results.

corianderstem · 07-23-2009, 01:18 PM

Lighten up, Francis.

Zoots · 07-23-2009, 01:37 PM

I feel bad for voting Pretty Persuasion after just listening to it.

It is such a happy tune!

HCL · 07-23-2009, 03:08 PM

So. Central Rain (I'm Sorry)
Fall on Me

The number of people voting made it near impossible to do it in a single song at a time way, too many songs too few voters makes this hard to work out

Man on the Moon
Country Feedback

Worse by far. Thank god it's gone. Never should've made the finals ahead of a song as excellent as Drive.

corianderstem · 07-23-2009, 04:43 PM

Gah, I'd forgotten about my bitterness about Drive.

Now it's back.

I hate everyone who helped to kick out Drive.

Zoots · 07-23-2009, 04:44 PM

Well, if we're gonna start talking about premature exits, talk about the passion!

Lancemc · 07-23-2009, 04:45 PM

Apparently there are 3 people out there who think the Universe is content with them voting for Country Feedback. Methinks Fate has a little something extra in store for them.

Country Feedback is probably my least favourite of the 45 songs that made the final, never understood the big deal about it

corianderstem · 07-23-2009, 04:48 PM

I think it's excellent, but don't think it's amazing as a lot of other REM fans.

I'm sure I'll be voting for it earlier on than others, and piss some people off by doing so.
