I have to play strategy now...this is getting tense. I love every song that is left, Dorothy Parker a tad less than the others. But Adore is getting way too many votes and I will not stand to see it voted off until the final three. I have made it my mission in life to keep this song in. I also know the other two songs I want up there but they are not in danger yet so I will hold my cards. Since Housequake seems to be garnering a lot of votes and since it is not in my top 3, I have to go with Housequake.

Housequake is my vote. Damn you bastards for making me vote it off.

I could never take the place of your man

bye

HOUSEQUAKE

It's time to say goodbye to that bloated puke-fest, Adore

Yes! I'm voting, on Valentines Day, to kick off Adore!

Seranade your lover with something with a little more spunk!

Forever In My Life

why y'all voting housequake off?!?!?

and thanks 2 newpower99 for making these threads! u rock!

NO! No Way...STARFISH and Coffee gone! You ALL will pay :head on desk weeping...hand pounding!

So, with that said...Dorothy Parker is my vote!
And yes, thank you Newpower99 (according to mashed!)

Forever In My Life.

I'm amazed that boring tripe like this song and "Strange Relationship" are still hanging around while fascinating tracks like "Play In The Sunshine" and "It's Gonna Be A Beautiful Night" are gone. People are strange.

I can't believe you got rid of Starfish!!! My husband's favorite Prince song. . .

Goodbye:
Ballad of Dorothy Parker

If I Was Your Girlfriend

I still can't believe Hot thing and starfish and coffee were voted off so soon. And I can't believe people want If I was your girlfriend and The balled of Dorothy Parker off.
I want Starnge relationship off .

"Forever In My Life"

Dull dull dull dull DULL! Even the version on the SOTT DVD is boring!

Adore

housequake

"if i was your girlfriend"...again, it's strictly about grammar. i'm thinking of the children.

Forever in my Life

Adore needs to be shown 2 the door. Get it.....

Because this is another lonely Valentine's Day for me

my vote goes to Adore

Strictly speaking the grammar is correct. The use of the subjunctive in the second conditional is now seen as formal English so a pop song wouldn't be expected to use it. On top of that it is my favourite Prince song.

I'll vote for Forever In My Life but this is really starting to hurt.

forever in my life.

Forever in my Life



'bout damn time that Starfish and Coffee went away!

Housequake

This sucks.

I love all the songs left, so I'm going to have to vote based on which of these songs I listen to the least. So, I have to vote for...

Adore

I hope you don't listen to Adore the least because it's the last song and you don't necessarily make it that far every time you listen to the album. That's not a good reason to vote it off.

Housequake

I Could Never say that crap to a girl in person
