Sign o the Times Survivor Round One Preliminary Nearly everybody loves Sign o the Times, now lets see how much we love the songs. The goal of this thread to find our favourite songs on the album by progressively eliminating tracks until we are left with the one magical Jam.How I will do it is I will not eliminate it one track at a time so it drags on forever, but eliminate 6 songs in this initial round and then 2 more each time until we are down to 4 and then one at a time til we get a winner.
The rules are we use only the 16 tracks on the Sign O the Times albums, no B sides or Outtakes or Crystal Ball songs that didnt make the cut. Here we are going to choose the 6 weakest jams of the 16 tracks (Which may be very strong compared to other albums, but we are in the league of gods here. I will start. Please try and choose six, not more or less, and it has to be 6 different songs, no choosing the same song twice, thrice, or six times. I will start below The 16 Jams 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 ur girlfriend Strange Relationship I could never take the place of yo man The Cross Its gonna be a beautiful night Adore The six I vote off are 1. Play in the Sunshine 2. Ballad of Dorothy Parker 3. Slow Love 4. Hot Thing 5. Strange Relationship 6. The Cross (The last 3 were hard choices) Cool let the votes begin 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 can't believe how many people are giving The Ballad Of Dorothy Parker the ax! I also can't believe It and HotThing. This is very disappointing! __________________________________________________

Its ok guys, voting the six weakest tracks off SOTT is not the end of the world, its just they are not as great as the diamonds here, think of it as separating the emeralds from the rubies from the diamonds here, not wheat from the chaff.
If you choose less than 6 its fine, as the song with the most votes will go first. You have 32 more hours 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 | |
