[iron yuppie]

Promenade. That bass in Wire is just too good.

 

[digitize]

Someone voted for Bad?

 

[intedomine]

Wire for the 5th time.

 

[LadySpinHead]

Out of what's left, I gotta say Pride. I love Wire and Promenade too much.

 

[LemonMelon]

Studio Bad is, honestly, my least favorite left. But I'll vote to protect Promenade.

 

[Axver]

This is like choosing which kitten out of six very cute kittens to throw off a cliff.

I'm sorry, Promenade, but your five fellow songs are slightly fuzzier, slightly cuter kittens.

 

[LemonMelon]

Sometimes I forget you like Pride, Ax.

Kill yourself!!

All of this.

 

[LemonMelon]

Are you saying I shouldn't be allowed to procreate?

 

[BlueSilkenSky]

Ack, it hurts to vote! IT HURTS!

Um... Wire.

 

[dazzledbylight]

Promenade


Axver- oh, jeez

 

[AndrewCowley]

Very very hard. I picked Pride.

 

[Axver]

Sometimes I forget you like Pride, Ax.

I may slag off most live versions of Pride, but I love the studio version. It's a rare example of the best version of a U2 song actually being the one everybody gets to hear, instead of some obscure performance two years later.

Kill yourself!!

He clearly just cannot appreciate such unique free form drumming.

 

[bonocomet]

Wow did it ever get tough!

I love you Promenade. But someone's gotta go.

 

[silkensky]

Wire.

Promenade is too beautiful to bump off this soon.

 

[the tourist]

Wire. Promenade is too wonderful to let go of just yet.

 

[Vlaco]

Wire. Wire is good, the other five are brilliant.

 

[Galeongirl]

Promenade, cause Wire is the shit


And wtf, the person who voted for Bad needs their Hive card revoked.

 

[lemonfly]

Football, coca-cola, radio radio

 

[digitize]

Whoa, I thought that Promenade would be trounced in this round. So glad to see that it's not.

 

[LadySpinHead]

If I knew it would be this close I would have voted to save Promenade. Hang in there, little guy!

 

[gvox]

Promenade should be the clear choice here. It's a great track, yes. But going by similarlyu applied logic of what are great full songs and what are lesser songs/filler on *this album, Promenade is the next one to go. It's not filler, but it's also not a truly great "full" song.

 

[Galeongirl]

Awesome tie going on here. Please don't break it!!!

Votes can be changed.

Well said

Votes can be changed.

I hate to do that, I like to commit to my vote, but yea, in the end if it makes a difference, please change my vote to Wire.

Mmmkay, will do.

 

[Galeongirl]

Nuuu, don't break the tie.

 

[Super Yo]

Nuuu, don't break the tie.

It's time to close this poll and say goodbye to both songs.
