Sign O' the Times Survivor - Round 1- CLOSED

Nothing much going on in Prince land these days . So I'm starting up a Sign O' the Times Survivor game. Should get some good discussions going on the songs on this classic album.

For those who dont know how this works , each round we all vote on the song that we want to see eliminated from the list (the worst remaining song). The song that receives the most votes is eliminated fron the list. Each round we eliminate one song until we have a one remaining survivor . In this case there will be 16 rounds. We all know em ..here they are...


Sign 'O' the Times
Play in the Sunshine
Housequake
Ballad of Dorothy Parker
It
Starfish and Coffee
Slow Love
Hot Thing
Forever in My Life
U Got the Look
If I Was Your Girlfriend
Strange Relationship
I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man
The Cross
It's Gonna Be a Beautiful Night
Adore



Which song should get the boot first? Which gets the honor of worst song on SOTT? boo

Voting open til 5p US eastern Thursday

You know it's gonna be the first to go!! evillol

Slow Love get's my vote too.

I predict the final 3 will be Housequake, Ballad Of Dot. and IIWYG, with IIWYG probably winning. razz

or...Adore ..or the title song..should get real heated once we get down to the last 6 or so.

to avoid a Slow Love landslide ...I put my vote in to get rid of "IT"

Slow Love gets the boot.

If Adore isn't the last song standing, this game is fixed.

This is going to be tough - i´m voting for u got the look to go. never been a particular favourite of mine. always seemed to be trying a little too hard. on the other hand, it was one of my favourite momements from the musicology tour....but we´re judging the album track so bye sheena!

dam this is hard, the fact of the matter is that I like all these songs, but I'll pick Dorthy Parker as the first to be kicked off the island.

Auuggghhhh...this is so cruel. It's like saying "Which one of your 16 children do you want to give away". I love this album, both as individual songs and in totallity. But, if I must...

It, bye, bye. Good song but damn it seems to go on forever...

Wow, I think It and Slow Love are absolutely awesome. It is fun as all hell and Slow Love is gorgeous.

Beautiful Night goes on absolutely forever and doesn't even make sense within the rest of the album.

Ooops sorry! lol

Come to think of it, i've changed my mind too. 'It's gonna be a beautiful night' has to go. overdubbed and fake as hell, if you've got 'testament', you'll understand.

hope that doesn't mess things up too much! biggrin
