Best Song Survivor: Rattle and Hum Round Four

[digitize]

double post

Should I put 200 songs in a list and have people vote for their least favorite 199 times?

 

[Vlaco]

God Part II, although the live versions take it to another level. I love Angel Of Harlem too much to get rid of.

These are all outstanding songs in my opinion.

No, it's just that your recent posts have all been scornfully taking issue with things that really don't matter. You don't like the tournament's format, the tournament's seeding, somebody's thread on B&C, somebody's opinion on music, the forum's general attitude towards this and that ... it's tedious.

But hey, how would you run the tournament then?

I'm starting to regret voting for GP2..

Good. Because you should. GP2 is the shit.

 

[Salome]

I know Interference enjoys U2 semi demo outtakes to finished songs. But, still, in no known universe are Hawkmoon and God II better than Angel of Harlem.

 

[Galeongirl]

In mine they sure are..

 

[AndrewCowley]

Surprised that Desire is doing so well. Against the others left here, I had to vote for it.

 

[Axver]

A best song vote?

List the songs.

Vote for them.

It's not difficult.

Like digitize said, a 200 song poll? Can't even do it. Forum limit is 30 options.

Anyway, your objection is daft. Stands to reason that better albums have more better songs, no? i.e. the better albums are favoured because they contain the best songs. Thus, it makes sense that the highest ranking albums should get preferential seeding in terms of finalists.

If you have a better idea of how to structure and seed the tournament, I'd love to hear it. All I hear from you is random, poorly articulated whining, which is shame because I recall you had some decent posts a while back. Now you're just bitching aimlessly. Pick up your game, man. If you're going to bitch, offer an alternative.

Angel of Harlem is one of U2's most joyful songs. Always such fun live!

Didn't realize Hawkmoon was regarded so highly around here! Will admit, that live version is much better (as is God Part II's), but the album version of Hawkmoon never really did much for me.

 

[bonocomet]

I believe Hawkmoon is my next vote.

 

[redhill]

Hawkmoon and God Part II beating Angel of Harlem?!

I understand subjectivity but that's ridiculous!

 

[An Cat Gav]

Yeah, live Hawkmoon 269 is one of U2's finest achievements.

Couldn't agree more, the studio version doesn't do a lot for me, but live it is indeed one of their best.

God Part 2 I think must go.

 

[the tourist]

Hawkmoon 269 is one of the most overrated (on here) U2 songs.

 

[cobl04]

I'm actually gonna agree with that. Listening to it for the first time in ages yesterday I was pretty underwhelmed.

 

[djerdap]

The live version is a huge improvement. Great song.
