How to play: Each album will have a series of rounds of voting. In an album's first round, all non-singles from the album will be listed and you vote for the song you think is the WORST. The song with the most votes is eliminated. This continues through the subsequent rounds until we are left with just one song from each album. These victorious songs proceed to the final, which will be conducted in the same manner until just one song is left, which you can consider to be the Best Non-Single or Least Objectionable Non-Single, depending upon your perspective.

If there's a draw, for most rounds, both songs are eliminated. If there's only 2 or 3 songs left, I'll leave the poll open for another day, when there'll hopefully be a decisive outcome.

If I'm honest, I don't believe the result of the previous round was legitimate. The late surge in voting for WILATW - it more than doubled its votes in the last few hours! - was suspicious to say the least. Based on the general opinion that rules on this forum, I find it absolutely remarkable that Wild Honey or Peace On Earth were not eliminated in the last round. Plus, the voting figures are rather above average - I suspect 95 may be our record.

So yes, I believe some people were using alters to fix the result of the last round. I can't prove it, of course, but I definitely am suspicious.

Ah well, I'll just keep hoping that finally some people will join with me and vote off In A Little While.

 

[Queen Bee]

Elevation

 

[namkcuR]

I can't believe WILATW was voted off at all, let alone that it was the FIRST one voted off for ATYCLB.



One of the few legitimately sonically interesting U2 songs of this decade and you people go and vote if off first.



One of the few U2 songs of this decade where Bono's lyrics, consistant through the whole song, are on par with his past lyrical work, and you people go and vote it off first.



And did I mention

 

[Axver]

Grace actually went first; WILATW was second. But otherwise, I agree. People want Bono to be aggressive politically? Well, if you ask me, WILATW is a more politically/social-commentarily aggressive song than ANYTHING from the nineties. In terms of open aggression anyway.

 

[U2Man]

Again, New York is the weakest song here.

 

[Queen Bee]

namkcuR and Axver, I must confess: I voted for WILATW in the last round with 14 of my alters

Except not, you paranoid freaks

 

[Axver]

So instead of getting your hive of bees to all vote, you resort to alters?

 

[MacPhistoPT]

Incredible how WILATW got off in the 2nd round
And Wild Honey is still here...

 

[mobvok]

Another for WILATW.

 

[miss becky]

Ack! I meant to vote for Wild Honey, but when I went to click on the "Vote" button I accidentally voted for New York by mistake. Can anyone please change my vote? Thanks!

 

[Irishteen]

When I look at the World was voted out unbelievable

Wild Honey again

I hope Peace On Earth lasts I love that song

 

[SiW87]

Amazing that When I Look At the World got voted off... absolutely amazing...

What's almost as equally amazing is that Wild Honey and In A Little While are still on here.

Whatever. Voted for In A Little While.

 

[the rockin edge]

Incredible how WILATW got off in the 2nd round

[Tiger Edge]

Wild Honey...lets go, lets go...

 

[thefly418]

what the hell happened....i went to bed like 8 hours agoa dn when i look at the world had like 15-18 votes and peace on earth and wild honey had 23 or 24 each....i cant believe these results, it didnt deserve to go, and axver must be right with people using alters abd voting more than once

 

[thetitans2k]

New York for the 3rd time.

 

[cjboog]

Wild Honey had way more votes than any other last time I checked. When I Look At The World just might have been the best song on the list


Peace on earth

 

[WildHoneyAlways]

Peace on Earth

 

[Where'sTheLove]

i prefer NY the least

 

[martha]

Kite sucks way more than Wild Honey, but I voted for New York.

 

[U2bpbear24]

Wild Honey

 

[Zoots]

Kite sucks way more than Wild Honey, but I voted for New York.

Wow, it never ceases to amaze me how different people's tastes are on this site! I think New York > Kite >>> Wild Honey
But to each his/her own.

 

[timothius]

Peace On Earth.

 

[catlhere]

Yay Wild Honey actually lasted another round!

-votes POS- errrr. i mean.... POE

Come on Wild Honey! Don't let the bastards grind you down! You can make it one more round!

 

[cobl04]

Maybe people think it's funny to vote off the better songs...hands up if you think WILATW is better than Wild Honey.




...

 

[angelordevil]

Ah well, I'll just keep hoping that finally some people will join with me and vote off In A Little While.

Duude, that tune was the last one to enter my brain before I "left the club." For this reason alone, it deserves to live another round.



Peace

 

[LMP]

Peace on Earth, yet again

When I Look at the World

 

[pepokiss]

I love Wild Honey... BUT I LOVE WILATW EVEN MORE

New York sucks big time... live it doesn't, but dead

 

[bono_212]

New York for the third time


Let's go Wild Honey, I know you won't win, but you can make it another round!
