Wow, seems we can't just have some fun with such things without it getting very nasty. I am closing this. And think we should consider not having any political thread here if not every member can be cool and civil.

I voted for Rejoice as my second choice, but we were asked to vote based on the song/music. Stop name-calling and using threatening language. It sound thuggish.

Wow. Not one poster had said anything political and right away demonizing a group of people and threats of violence.

No, plenty of evidence that the left wing will resort to violence. College campuses are providing proof of that with the targeting of Jewish students and staff everyday. The Anarchists who tried to burn the Portland Federal Courthouse with people inside during the George Floyd riots.

Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Castro, etc are proof that the far left can get quite violent if you don't march lock step with them. And even then, you could find yourself finding death if you come from a wrong class of people deemed a threat.

I have been to war zones and failing countries. Be careful what you wish for.

King's X gets the vote, regardless.

"Run to the Hills" is a funny choice (because the title, not the song itself).

Hi,

Not voting on this one ... however, I don't think that Mr. T will have as easy a time as he did previously ... there are way more folks on the opposite camp now, and I am not quite sure that the Rep's can win the House and the Senate ... I'm kinda expecting a kick back of some of the Republican do's in many states ... normally, many folks react against that ... but it's hard to believe that women won't put a stop to that crap! That, by itself, would hurt Mr. T.
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Edgy fun?! If you say so, I don't not see it here, in this context. My bad... Embarrassed

Vote for Izz as this is the best out of those I hadn't known before. (Otherwise Gong, Anekdoten, Motorpsycho.)

@Cristi Fun can be a bit edgy at times. If we can't tolerate this one, not sure how much edgy fun can be left.

^ I was sure such a reaction would come sooner or later and I don't blame it at all. 
I think it would be a good idea to change the poll title.

Regardless of politics, I think this is a bloody good selection of songs, so good that I'll listen to the ones that I don't know yet before voting.

The full title of that Gong album is Rejoice! I'm Dead.

BTW, those people who've correctly predicted the last nine elections all say Trump won't win.

Vote.



Well, there was one guy who said he predicted all the elections going all the way back to 1975. Then he predicted Bernie Sanders would win so you can't trust him anymore. Not sure if he was part of "those people" or not though.

It's just a trivial and flippant song themed poll.  Vote for your favourited tracks from the playlist, or not.

I’d go to a political forum and discuss the matter with likeminded people

I'd "Mutiny!", then "Rejoice!" in my decision.

I might worriedly wonder, "Will We Survive"?
