The Ultimate Women's Album - Side 2 Track 6 Vote - Round 2

Post by Dr. Medulla »

Not a huge surprise which two made it to the final round. Hard to handicap this one, tho, as I suspect there were several people who picked both the Interruptors and X-Ray Spex. So even tho the two finalists were tied, the final vote won't just be made up of those five who supported also-rans, but some who'll have to abandon one of those their choices from the past round.

At least it won't be another disco song.

To be fair, there's only one disco song that's made the final listing.

Hello,

Well, that's only 1 too many.

Just a quick note that I'll be in class when the vote is scheduled to end, so it'll be a few hours after that before we either do nominations for the final track—the non-album song—or, in the event of a tie, consider arguments for both contenders.

edit: With less than an hour to go, it's tied. If that's where it ends up—damn you all to hell!—go ahead and post your arguments for your preference and I'll make my decision tomorrow. Remember that "They Don't Know" won last time both by SM's argument and the fact that Garbage didn't receive the same kind of effort. If you don't show up for your side, even a half-assed statement for the other song will carry the day. It isn't about my preference, but about how well you can persuade that yours is stronger.
