Best Song Survivor: 1990s Semi Final VIII

[Axver]

Please vote for your LEAST FAVOURITE song.

Welcome to the eighth 1990s semi final 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 five songs from this semi final will proceed to the grand final, where they will meet the top seven 1980s songs and top four 2000s songs. 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, Please was eliminated.

I'm concerned Acrobat may come under threat, so I'll hold onto my vote for now. If voting for HMTMKMKM is what will protect it, I'll go after that.

 

[intedomine]

Switching vote from Gone to Acrobat to save HMTMKMKM....

 

[2861U2]

Acrobat, hopefully for the last time.

 

[digitize]

Stay. Out of pure fucking spite.

 

[Slopsy]

Gone. It's a great song but I can't bring myself to vote for any of the others.

 

[bonocomet]

I would vote Gone or HMTMKMKM to save Acrobat, but I don't think I could vote any of the others to do it. So I'll wait.
(I'd rather not vote for Gone yet though)

 

[Acrobat51829]

Wow, why the Acrobat hate? I thought it was really popular around here. I'll hold my vote for now as well.

 

[2861U2]

^ I can only speak for me, but there's no hatred here. It's just the least-good song left, and has been so for a few rounds now.

 

[alanah]

The Batman song gets my vote.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

i'm ready for the bat...

 

[coolian2]

ZOMG AKROWBAT!!!!!

Mr. Axver...
you disappoint me.



Btw, holding my vote to save U2's second best song, HMTMKMKM.

 

[FitzChivalry]

'Gone'

Again.

 

[dward1]

Mofo...losing Acrobat would be much worse to me than losing even Pride. My 3rd favorite U2 song of all time would be eliminated

 

[bonocomet]

Well I think in order to save Acrobat my vote will have to go to HMTM as that one seems to be holding with the 2nd most votes for a while now.

 

[Axver]

Yep, looks like HMTMKMKM is the way to protect Acrobat, which I think is U2's best nineties song and the most worthy finalist. The only song I wouldn't vote for to protect Acrobat is Gone. Everything else is below the level of those two.

 

[Purplereign]

HMTMKMKM . . . can't believe that either Gone or Acrobat would have any votes at all . . .ack

 

[The Sad Punk]

OMG you guys are terrible

I'M COMING AFTER YOU

 

[cobl04]

HMTMKMKM . . . can't believe that either Gone or Acrobat would have any votes at all . . .ack

[Galeongirl]

This is getting ridiculous.

 

[2861U2]

What the heck is going on? I go to bed with Acrobat having a solid lead, and I wake up to this nonsense...

 

[Axver]

I would never consider four or so votes "a solid lead".

 

[2861U2]

I would never consider four or so votes "a solid lead".

Well... ok, but a lead nonetheless.

 

[Mauwer]

Voted HMTMKMKM

Cheers ,

Mauwer

 

[Irishteen]

HMTMKMKM is not that good a song, it should go now

 

[MMP]

Freakin' ridiculous

 

[SamuelSmeloc]

Now I think Acrobat is safe!

 

[bonocomet]

I don't know what to vote next round

 

[Galeongirl]

I don't know what to vote next round

I think we should bandwagon Zooropa, it's the most obvious choice.
