Generation Terrorists Survivor: DAY 16
I was just thinking: While we wait for album news why don't we vote for our favourite songs from each album?
I know this has been done before but this time it's a little different. There will be a poll daily, and each day, the least popular song is removed until we have a winner. So let's start at the best way to start, Generation Terrorists. THE VOTE IS NOW CLOSED CULTURE SUCKS DOWN SONGS: 18. Repeat (Stars and Stripes): 68.18%, 15 votes 17. Damn Dog 57.14%, 8 votes 16. Tennessee 27.78%, 5 votes 15. So Dead 38.46%, 5 votes 14. Spectators of Suicide 66.67%, 2 votes (after tiebreaker) 13. Another Invented Disease 14 votes amassed over 6 days (tie) 12. Methadone Pretty 25%, 4 votes 11. Repeat (UK) 25%, 4 votes 10. Crucifix Kiss 15 votes amassed over 9 days (tie) 9. Love's Sweet Exile 36.36%, 4 votes 8. Born to End 7. Condemned to Rock 'N' Roll 6. Nat West-Barclays-Midlands-Lloyds 5. Slash 'N' Burn 4. You Love Us 3. Little Baby Nothing 2. Stay Beautiful 1. MOTORCYCLE EMPTINESS B-sides: 15. Bored Out of My Mind 30%, 3 votes 14. R.P. McMurphy 37.5%, 3 votes 13. Theme from M.A.S.H (Suicide Is Painless) 50%, 2 votes 12. Starlover 30.77%, 4 votes 11. Ain't Going Down 33.33%, 4 votes 10. Soul Contamination 40%, 2 votes 9. A Vision of Dead Desire 42.86%, 3 votes 8. We Her Majesty's Prisoners 7. Never Want Again 6. Dead Yankee Drawl 5. Democracy Coma 4. Spectators of Suicide (Heavenly Version) 3. Sorrow 16 2. You Love Us (Heavenly Version) 1. MOTOWN JUNK Leave vote/rant below. Come back tomorrow for the results!

I always forget how many songs I love on GT. But Repeat (Stars and Stripes) wouldn't be missed.

Yeah, it'd be Repeat (Star and Stripes) for me too. Should have been a b-side.
Strictly speaking I don't approve of covers pushing out new material so Damn Dog has a mark by it but I do still absolutely love it though. The Lion Sleeps Tonight (copyright JDB) - sorry, Spectators Of Suicide - is the soporific odd one out, but it's new material, so I suppose it stays. Nice idea, btw!

1 day down, 16 to go, and poor old Repeat (Stars and Stripes) has the unfortunate honour of being first to leave. By a long way, too, with 68% of the vote. Only three other songs recieved any votes.
Today's poll is here: https://strawpoll.com/zgsbrecx Also enabled comments for your own little rants. Get voting!

Yep, Damn Dog next - I never skip it, but covers and remixes tend to be bottom of the list.

Please tell me only Glass Angel and Automatik voted
Repeat's one of the best Or was it irony...Suicide Aldi definitely does irony The Damn Dog could be lost though...

Two for two... Tennessee next for me, it's not a bad song,, it's just not a particularly good song.

Tenessee for me too. The original version on the suicide alley single is much better.

Tennessee was subverted, destroyed, beat, derelict.
We're down to the final 15, and the vote is now OPEN: https://strawpoll.com/35peksf8 I'm also going to concurrently run a B-sides/Motown Junk/Heavenly/M.A.S.H etc. survivor starting from today, you can find it here: https://strawpoll.com/raabcf4b YOUR VOTE MATTERS

Hmmm... I feel next will be a few 'rawk' numbers. Born To End for me, but the decision is definitely getting harder!

I love Tennessee! Philistines.
I voted for The Lion Sleeps Tonight, the other version of which is much better - as JDB knows and will gladly tell you.
