THIS IS BIG SURVIVAL DYNAMITE ROUND 7

Post by Silent Majority »

In a sad but predictable move, The Bottom Line is OUT. Vote for the lesser of these two songs, somehow.

Medicine Show is one of those perfect songs I don't think I'll ever tire of hearing. Sorry E=MC2 but you've got to go.

The first part is right, but E=MC^2 is perfecter.

The first real Sophie's Choice for me in the last two of a poll. Almost abstained but I had to keep Medicine Show by about 1%

Wait, what? Bottom Line is so much better than any other BAD song. It's so anthemic.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Medicine Show and E=mc2 are fantastic songs, as good as some of the best Clash stuff.

Sticking with e=mc2. Medicine show is 100% my aesthetic.

I really thought e=mc2 would get through. A bit of a surprise.

I actually thought "The Bottom Line" would be the one to win from this album; all three are very worthy.
