Condorcet Album Poll: For You-Final Results Available

UPDATE: The poll is now closed. Click here to see the results:

Hi again:

Condorcet Album Poll: For You.

This is the next installment in a series of polls ranking the songs on each album officially released by Prince or O+>. The goal of this project is to determine which tracks should be included in a final poll to determine the overall top 25 Prince songs in the opinion of his fans.

For those of you who haven’t been following the polls, these are different than the usual “best song” threads in that they combine the preferences of all the voters into an overall list.

I am going through these in the same order that they were ranked in the earlier poll of the best Prince albums. Now's the time of his opera prima, For You. Only 9 songs to rank.

Please don’t discuss the preliminary results or campaign for your favorite song(s) until the poll is closed. I plan to close the poll on Friday, but I may close it early if the preliminary results are discussed on this site. This is to make sure the poll is as accurate as possible.

Click here to vote in the current poll:

Javi	37 votes. Less people taking part in this poll. Could it be due to the stickies being all over the screen?

Well, we are getting to the bottom of the album poll, so it shouldn't be surprising that there is less interest in these albums. We'll see how many people bother to rank the songs on Rave. lol

Probably due to For You being Ritchie Cunninghams' brother on Happy Days status

Javi	The poll is now closed. No surprises: Soft And Wet has won and Just As Long As We're Together follows in the second place. 45 votes. Quite good considering the album. Thanks!

UltraLash	I'm actually more interested in voting on The Vault and Rave than on For You. I have some very definite opinions about those albums.

Same here. With for You I knew very well my four faves, but the others are a shapeless mass to me.

Of the albums remaining, I'm also very interested in Planet Earth. I like it a lot. It ranked last but one in the albums poll, something I strongly disagree with. disbelief
