Best Song Survivor: The Joshua Tree Round V

[Axver]

Please vote for your LEAST FAVOURITE song.

Welcome to the fifth and penultimate round for The Joshua Tree in Best Song Survivor! The object of this game is to find Interference's favourite U2 song. To do so, songs will be eliminated album-by-album in 24 hour long rounds to leave the favourites to contest a final that will determine the very favourite. The top four songs from The Joshua Tree will proceed to the quarter finals. Only original U2 songs with official studio releases will compete. Due to dominating past tournaments and the inevitable likelihood that they will do the same this time, Where The Streets Have No Name and One are not in the tournament and can be assumed default equal #1 over and above the ultimate winner.

In the fourth round, I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For made an overdue departure.

ORDER OF ELIMINATION
10. Trip Through Your Wires
9. Mothers Of The Disappeared
8. Bullet The Blue Sky
7. I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For

I feel like I've voted for you before Bullet.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

i thought bullet already, you know, bit the bullet.

 

[Axver]

I will have no part in eliminating RHMT and Exit, both worthy of a finals spot.

I'd ideally vote RTSS, but I'm going to hold onto my vote in case voting IGC could save RHMT and Exit. I love IGC, but the four songs I'd choose as finalists are WOWY, RHMT, OTH, and Exit, meaning I'd have to eliminate IGC anyway, so I'd be willing to do it now if necessary.

SHIT.

Can you change Bullet to RTSS and RTSS to RHMT?

I was kind of doing the poll on autopilot and not paying attention.

 

[bono_212]

Well my vote is for Exit, but I saw bullet there, and prematurely voted myself.

 

[Axver]

Thank you, Khan!

Now let's all pretend nothing untoward happened.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

k, it's been fixed. i think i managed to delete the votes too, so those who voted for bullet should be able to vote for something else now. anyway, i'm voting for rhmt.

 

[Aardvark747]

Red Hill

 

[The Sad Punk]

I kinda want RTSS to GTFO.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

I'm making this more difficult than it needs to be, I think, but I am having a hard time deciding what to vote for. I think I'll just do some process of elimination.

I'm not going to vote for WOWY. It was probably the first U2 song I really loved oh those many years ago. It's not gonna be RTSS. Too Bono. And it's not gonna be Exit. Too bad-asssss.

Fuck, I don't know. I'm not voting. Fuck it.

 

[Galeongirl]

Still IGC...

 

[bathiu]

In God's Country... again

 

[Addicted To Bad]

I just can´t - I just can´t -





Do your best, guys....

 

[An Cat Gav]

Dont know why people would choose IGC over RHMT.
IGC to go.

I just love canaries.

 

[Mr. V]

wow, this album is fantastic. pretty much every song has something to offer, and every song bar TTYW has the right to be called brilliant. about half of those are epic. and two of those are my favourite songs ever.

 

[nicv]

I was very happy to wake to see RHMT still on the list.......

Today it will be Exit or IGC for me, whichever is needed to save RHMT. So, I will wait to see how this all plays out

I would even be willing to oust RTSS to save RHMT, though that would be severely painful for me.

 

[alanah]

Exit.

 

[SamuelSmeloc]

Oh, man, It's hard.
Now I vote for Exit, but next round I'll probably have to vote for With Or Without You.

IGC has a classic Edge riff whereas RHMT doesn't. Everyone loves the guitar.

 

[Axver]

RHMT has a classic Bono vocal while IGC doesn't.

 

[nicv]

RHMT has a classic Bono vocal while IGC doesn't.

 

[Zoots]

RHMT has a classic Bono vocal while IGC doesn't.

I agree with you. But it doesn't matter. A striking lead guitar riff always wins over good vocals in the minds of the general populace.

Besides, IGC has great vocals too!

ISHFWILF? Beautiful Day?

 

[Zoots]

ISHFWILF? Beautiful Day?

Well, BD has that familiar guitar riff in the chorus.

Anyway, I'm listening to JT right now. Just finished RHMT and now IGC. Damn, what great songs! Definitely a tough decision. Fucking amazing music this is.

 

[Axver]

As if the general public remembers BD for anything other than Bono's soaring chorus.

 

[Sicy]

For fricks sake. Exit needs to f off.

 

[bonocomet]

Red Hill Mining Town

 

[BonoIsMyMuse]

Exit, though I considered WOWY, since all of the other songs left are among my favorites by U2.
