Finals: U2 Singles Survivor - Round Three

is now open. Please vote by clicking in the circle next to the single you like the LEAST on the electronic poll above. Thank you.

Please be aware that you are voting on the WHOLE single release, not the individual a-side. In the same way that album survivor involved whole albums with their full complement of tracks competing against each other, singles survivor will involve whole singles with their full complement of tracks competing against each other.

This is a TWO day timed electronic poll.

Instructions:

Voting

Each round please vote off the single you like the least. The single with the most amount of votes is the the least popular for this round. Voting is anonymous. It's not compulsory to state your preference in the thread.

Next round all the singles are listed again, minus the single that receives the most amount of votes this round. And again please vote for your least favourite single from the selection.

And on we go for many rounds until there's only two singles left. In the last round you vote for your favourite out of the two. The last single standing is the most popular (or the least unpopular depending on how you look at it).

Tie Breaker

In the event of a tie, both or all tied singles will be instantly eliminated from the competition.

Have fun!
 
WGRYWH, Stuck, or Walk On?

I think I'll wait a bit. I just hope this weird fad of voting for Popheart stops before it's too late.
 
This is so sad. I'd thought I would always vote on principle, maybe for president but not for U2 songs. I'm going to hold my vote in case I have to protect anything. I'm going to listen to A Celebration all night as A Remembrance. You went before your time.:sad:

I agree, It's one of my favorite U2 single's. I remember the chills I got when I first heard it. For popheart to loose this round would be a shame...

Anyhow, I decided to vote off EBTTRT because the numerous remixes don't do much for me.
 
Walk On (various edits)/Stuck In A Moment (acoustic)/Elevation (Vandit Club Mix)/Stay (live)/Where The Streets Have No Name (live)/Gone (live)

again again again :(

*shudders* That song is only slightly better than Fortunate Son. I say shoot them both!
 
I predict the final four to be One, With Or Without You, Where The Streets Have No Name, and I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For.

Pride and UF have to be in there somewhere too.

In a perfect world, it would happen that way. In a perfect world, The Unforgettable Fire would have won the albums survivor. And in a perfect world Heartland would have been a single. Ahh well.
 
Each morning now, I keep thinking whether to vote Vertigo or not - cos it seems unlikely to be going anywhere just yet! But I just can't bring myself to get rid of ANYTHING else on there, over Vertigo.
Even 'A Celebration', which went in the last round.
 
Please just one more person vote for Wild Horses, then we can be rid of it once and for all!
