1999 Round 6: The Famous Three a compromise, rank them as the final round

The votes are in, Lady Cab Driver got 14 votes and is gone, DMSR got 9 votes and the other 2 got 5 a piece

I am going to change this as there were 9 replies suggesting open hatred to this system, I will compromise some. Rather than vote off the remaining 3 one by one and cause pain to some fans, we are just going to rank them 1st, 2nd or 3rd and then I will work out each song overall and assign a place. I will show you how its done by casting my own votes

1. Lets Pretend were married
2. D.M.S.R.
3. Little Red Corvette

Rules
1. Only those three songs, no other songs from 1999 or other songs period, if you do, vote is INVALID
2. No use of any of the 3 songs more than once, so DMSR in 1st, 2nd and 3rd place is an invalid vote.
3. No angst in your reply
4. Try and suggest what albums you would like survivored afterwards

I will state for the record I DO NOT HATE 1999 ALBUM, its one of my favourite albums, but there are definitely some tracks better than others.
Finally thank you to all the orgers who have supported these threads and voted, we appreciate your feedback and interest.

Previous Rounds
Round One: Delirious, Free, All the Critics

So what are u going 2 do? R u just gonna sit there and watch? I'm not gonna stop until the war is over. Its gonna take a long time

I think you're being a bit over sensitive Huggie, I didn't see any hatred. People just don't like having to eliminate favourite songs, it's hard! Anyway, isn't it all just for fun?

This round, Let's Pretend must go. Not that I don't love it, I do, I just love the others a teeny bit more.
RIP sad

Playing along, my suggestion for next album would be SOTT..but you should do it in this top three format instead.. cuz honestly,these would've not been on my top three for this album.

I agree, we did SOTT last year. Adore was 3rd, the titke track 2nd and If I was ur girlfriend won it. Its annoying when your favourite songs go early. I really liked International Lover, but that disappeared in Round 2. Thems the breaks I guess

I'd like to see LotusFlow3r/MLPSound done because of how jaded everyone's opinion is on the album(s).

Almost equally good in my book.

I think the prince album would be interesting to vote on. At least I don't see which obvious songs people would choose as best from that album. There are so many good.
