The Three Sunrises and Luminous Times(Hold On To Love) have been eliminated.

Instructions: Simple. This is a traditional survivor. You will vote for your LEAST FAVORITE track!

The poll will be open for 24 hours.

Here is a list of tracks in this poll, all linked to YT for your reference.

11 O'Clock Tick Tock
Love Comes Tumbling
Lady With The Spinning Head / UV1
Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me
The Ground Beneath Her Feet
 
Very sad to see The Three Sunrises go! Suppose it makes it easier to vote for anything that isn't Love Comes Tumbling now?
 
I'm thinking Axver won't be a happy camper when he sees 11OTT with the early lead here. Pretty sure that's his #1.
 
I just want to remind people, and I'm going to put this in big bold letters:

You do not have to vote based on studio versions. Yes, I am talking about 11OTT.

As for my own vote...I don't know yet. I'm finding it impossibly difficult to choose now.
 
I'm thinking Axver won't be a happy camper when he sees 11OTT with the early lead here. Pretty sure that's his #1.

Seriously, this is disgusting.

The only option here is The Ground Beneath Her Feet. I almost feel like it's sneaking through.
 
I'm just looking back at the list and trying to make sense of where songs ended up. How the hell did Holy Joe and A Celebration beat out Invisible, and Summer Rain? How the hell is Two Shots of Happy all the way down at #22? It deserves top 10 here. Stateless also belongs top 10.
 
I voted for 11OTT at the last second. Incredibly hard choice. I love them all. But 11OTT looked gone already and I didn't want there to be a chance of a last second double-elimination with LWTSH.
 
Ok, so, I've been thinking about it, and I think I'm gonna hit pause on this until Monday. The reason is that we only have three rounds to go - the Grand Quarterfinal, Grand Semifinal, and Grand Final. I want participation to be as high as possible for these final few rounds that will decide the final results of the competition, and I feel like more people are around here on weekdays.

A couple of days off will also give you guys a chance to listen to the final four again and really nail down your voting preferences if you haven't done so yet.
 
I have to vote LWTSH first based on the strength of the extended dance mix. If only UV1 existed, that'd be last. It doesn't matter if bits and pieces led to other songs imo.

2. Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me
3. The Ground Beneath Her Feet

While Love Comes Tumbling is great, it's a bit too subtle to have made it this far.
 
Lady with the spinning head for the final time hopefully

You people sicken me.

Anyway, TGBHF until it's gone. It deserved to make the top ten but top five is a real over-achievement.
