Best Song Survivor: 2000s Semi Final V

[Axver]

Please vote for your LEAST FAVOURITE song.

Welcome to the fifth 2000s 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 four songs from this semi final will proceed to the grand finals. 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 last round, The Ground Beneath Her Feet disappeared.

ORDER OF ELIMINATION
12. Fast Cars
11. No Line On The Horizon II
10. Vertigo
9. The Ground Beneath Her Feet

The loss of TGBHF has made this final ten times more mediocre. Surprised it left before Walk On and Electrical Storm, since they seem to come in for more crap on this forum than TGBHF ever has.

Oh well, guess it's back to voting for Breathe for me.

 

[coolian2]

walk on.

 

[bathiu]

Walk On

 

[stagman]

keep walking

 

[dward1]

Walk On is my 3rd favorite U2 song ever and I think it's the best concert closer they have ever done.

electrical storm is the weakest left...just doesn't have that extra something that makes a great U2 song

 

[Axver]

Walk On is my 3rd favorite U2 song ever and I think it's the best concert closer they have ever done.

It was a damn good concert closer, but I'd say it was well and truly outdone by 40, Love Is Blindness, and most particularly Bad.

In all honesty, I'd be perfectly happy if U2 closed every show with Bad from now on.

 

[Galeongirl]

MOS again.


I hope U2 close at least one of the shows I'm going to with 40, have to experience that one!

 

[Slopsy]

Walk On.
Eliminating TGBHF = epic fail.

 

[An Cat Gav]

Walk On, along with Miracle Drug it's my least favourite song U2 have ever written. Please go now.

Distraught at the loss of TGBHF, which is an all time classic.

 

[Flaming Friar Sr]

cobl - i'll keep saying at this forum its the most overrated u2 song ever

 

[rwolins1]

I second that. Can we get a poll done for that one and ship it to the boys?

 

[Vlaco]

cobl - i'll keep saying at this forum its the most overrated u2 song ever

+TGBHF is a thousand times better

 

[Addicted To Bad]

I do, too !!

but I believe they won´t anymore...

 

[intedomine]

Lecca Storm

 

[cobl04]

magnifique

 

[2861U2]

Walk On to save ES.

 

[gump]

Walk On, I guess. To be honest, BD, Walk On, ES, COBL, Breathe and Kite are more or less on the same level for me. I wouldn't mind voting for all for all of them at the same time.

 

[Acrobat51829]

Walk On.
Eliminating TGBHF = epic fail.

Yup.

 

[mikal]

Breathe. in no way is it the 3rd strongest song on NLOTH. in fact, i'm so disgusted that Fez - Being Born was voted off that i'm going to mention this in every voting thread AND vote for Fez in the finals, even though it's not in the poll.

 

[cobl04]

You may have possibly the world's seediest, creepiest avatar but you speak the goddam truth.

 

[Russian Fox]

I think it's useless to fight against mediocre MOS

BUT

Moment Of Surrender

That would be amazing.

Walk On needs to go. I'm sad about TGBHF. I wish I had been here to help try to defend it.

I second this wholeheartedly.

Though now I'm wondering if I should've voted Walk On to protect ES. That said, with the elimination of TGBHF, I think Walk On just somehow became one of my desired four qualifiers, since most of my favourites are out of contention.

yes. i am curious why Walk On has seen a lot of votes too. i always considered it to be one of U2's best tunes of this decade. and the fact that it was an amazing show closer, especially post 9/11, makes it epic.

I don't think it's useless. I shall keep fighting against this already overrated borefest.

Agreed.

I JUST voted Walk On last round in order to save TGBHF but it din´t work
It was a difficult choice because I love it.

Breathe now - although I know it won´t save Walk On

 

[Y2K]

Breathe needs to GTFO.

 

[mikal]

come on people, vote let Breathe eliminate Walk On. that would be a damn shame!
