These songs are the winners of all the rounds, facing off to find ONE SONG TO RULE THEM (all the non-singles) ALL.

 

[corianderstem]

Electric Co needs to go

 

[bonocomet]

I've gone back and forth between TEC an TGBHF, but I keep going back to voting TGBHF now. (Just realized it's the last one standing from this decade ... oh well)

 

[gareth brown]

3 VOTES AND IT'S NECK AND NECK!

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

electric co.

 

[U2girl]

Electric co.

 

[LemonMelon]

The Fly

 

[the tourist]

Please. Each and every time. Until it's gone.

 

[phillyfan26]

The Fly, Electric Co. next.

 

[Rob33]

Electric Co. before Gloria? Really?!

 

[discothequeLP]

electric co before HEARTLAND, GLORIA, ZOOROPA, and TGBHF? WHAT IS GOING ON HERE

 

[Zoots]

Ground Beneath

 

[Vlaco]

Gloria...studio version is kinda dull compared to the live version. Live it's such a great song (Red Rocks, Dortmund 84).

 

[corianderstem]

electric co before HEARTLAND, GLORIA, ZOOROPA, and TGBHF? WHAT IS GOING ON HERE

I do not see anything scandalous at all about voting out Electric Co before any of those.

 

[phillyfan26]

Studio versions: that's the explanation for pretty much all of my voting.

1. One Tree Hill
2. A Sort of Homecoming
3. Zooropa
4. The Ground Beneath Her Feet
5. Please
6. Heartland
7. Gloria
8. The Electric Co.
9. The Fly

 

[coolian2]

If you don't know, it's time go

 

[Axver]

Oh shit. Now that COBL's gone, we're left with a perfect run of quality.

I have no fucking clue what to vote for.

 

[phanan]

Heartland

Great song. Also greatly overrated here.

 

[Varitek]

I voted for Ground.

of what's left:

1. ASOH
1. One Tree Hill
3. Heartland
4. The Fly
(The Electric Co)
5. Please
6. Zooropa (probably)
7. Gloria (probably)
8. TGBHF

 

[Axver]

So, ranking the songs:

1. One Tree Hill
2. Heartland
3. A Sort Of Homecoming
4. Gloria
5. The Fly
6. The Electric Co.
7. Zooropa
=8. The Ground Beneath Her Feet
=8. Please

I can't decide which way around Please and TGBHF should go. But I'm disgusted that Heartland is receiving a considerable amount of votes, and TGBHF looks like a reasonable option to counter that, so I'll stick with it until it's gone. Please doesn't seem to be disappearing in a hurry.

 

[BigMacPhisto]

9. Please
8. The Ground Beneath Her Feet
7. Heartland
6. Electric Co.
5. Zooropa
4. Gloria
3. One Tree Hill
2. A Sort of Homecoming
1. The Fly

I want "ASOH" to win because I like it when the Zootards don't get their way.

 

[ultraviolet92]

ground beneath her feet defez

 

[pepokiss]

If Zooropa doesn't win, we riot!!

 

[The Sad Punk]

This poll is a real bitch.

I voted for Please, just.

 

[mysterious_jen]

ground.



bagh leave the elctric co alone dammit!

 

[An Cat Gav]

Please.

 

[Nilthoron]

I voted for please

 

[gareth brown]

WHOA look at all those heartland votes! Axver's gonna be pretty pissed

 

[Axver]

WHOA look at all those heartland votes! Axver's gonna be pretty pissed

I'm a bit surprised, it seems to have come from nowhere. But it looks like TEC will outdo it here, and it can probably hang on longer than TGBHF and Gloria too.

Just as long as One Tree Hill wins ...

Honestly, I'd be happy if any one of ASOH, One Tree Hill, and Heartland won. I think they're quite strongly the three best tracks here.

 

[luna_lovegood]

Can't choose!

However, as hard as it is, and as good as they all are, I am astonished that Heartland has so many votes this early on...

It's gonna kill me, but I think I'm going to have to go with Please.
