Album Survivor! Version 1.0

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

Ok, here's a really cool idea I got from another forum I hit up every
once in a while. It's called "Album Survivor!" and here's how it works:

You start by taking a CD and all the tracks from that CD. For
experimental and thread-starter purposes, let's take a undisputed
classic album: King Crimson - In the Court of the Crimson King.

21st Century Schizoid Man

I Talk to the Wind

Epitaph

Moonchild

In The Court of the Crimson King

Now, the point of album survivor is to truly find out which is the
"best" song on the album (not a very experimental way of doing things,
but it's damn fun!) All you have to do is post the song that, out of the choices remaining, you would choose to get kicked off the CD.
After, say, five votes are tallied for a song, that song gets kicked
off the album, and its back to square one, with all votes restarting.
Only the forum starter (ME!) will post the full ist of songs with
updated votes every few moments. The last two songs remaining must get
ten votes to get knocked off.

I will start things off: 

My vote is for "Moonchild"

21st Century Schizoid Man

I Talk to the Wind

Epitaph

Moonchild - 1

In The Court of the Crimson King

As you can see, simply post just the song you want kicked off the CD. At
five votes, the song is kicked out, and the race is restarted with the
remaining songs, all back to zero votes. The final song standing is,
thus, the "best" song on the album! Yay, fun!

If there are any questions, please ask them before voting 

So....let's get it on! 

Current Standings:

21st Century Schizoid Man

I Talk to the Wind

Epitaph

Moonchild - 1

In The Court of the Crimson King

Edit: Ugh...i think i did this in the wrong section. Ah well

	Moonchild Well if it was shorter I would love it but it is just too sleepy in the instrumental bit. Edited by yesman72

	I'm gonna try to move this to the prog music lounge, because its not getting looked at in the polls section. This thread is unofficially closed my me!

	I would also chose Moonchild (even though I like the 9 minutes of notes, I just feel that it's the weakest song.)
	One likes to believe In the freedom of music But glittering prizes And endless Compromises Shatter the illusion Of integrity

	I agree, Moonchild, although not a bad song at all, is still the weakest compared to the rest of the album
