It is, objectively, probably their best song ever, but this time a subjective vote, what do people like to listen to. (I didn't vote for it btw!)

"Hi! We're Momentum! And we've got loads and loads of people in positions to get elected Jeremy Corbyn and the Labour Party!"

Well that is precious and I imagine must get you out of the house a lot more?
Oh by the way, did you know on a Manics forum in a vote on The Holy Bible they voted off PCP and stuff like The Intense Humming Of Evil over the one song that stole from David Smith, the associate Hindley and Brady tried to corrupt before they were caught?

"THAT'S FAKE NEWS!! WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO START FAKE NEWS?!!! WE STILL GOT THIS... THAT'S... OOOOOOHHHH JEREMY COR-BYN!! OOOOOOHHHH JEREMY COR-BYN!!"

Surely people are accidentally voting for their favourite song...?

I'm finding people's tastes here baffling!

Considering the comments, is there someone trolling the best songs off the album?

I really have to say this Holy Bible poll has been one of my worst experiences on the forum in years. Probably since the release of PFAYM when I was operating under a different username! Where is starstruck? I miss that guy!

*whispers* It's.. it's almost like different people like different things....

Edit - actually, I'll go further. This is almost like going back to the mid-90s. There isn't a 'correct' way to be a Manics fan. The Holy Bible isn't even my favourite Manics album. This isn't meant to be an objective musical and literary criticism of the songs. If Faster wins this vote, you'll just have to get over it!

That said, I voted for Faster to go this time. Yes for the win now

I edited my post due to having had a senior moment in the original typing that may have prompted your response: I confused Archives with Intense Humming. Archives is of course amazing.

It's all come down to this...
...and I can tell you now that Faster has not made the final two.

So... it's the FINAL SHOWDOWN!

YES vs ARCHIVES OF PAIN

Vote for your least favourite: http://www.strawpoll.me/14934736

Not to influence the vote, but Archives of Pain is officially Jimbo's favourite song to play off the album.

Archives of Pain to win!
