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. lol

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.

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.

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.

The Ballad of Dorothy Parker

It's a nice little story, but it doesn't have much of a hook compared to the rest of the songs left on there.
The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.
