Signals, and then we're down to the 'fab four' Wink

And don't forget, we didn't eliminate a single bad album in 12 rounds...

Why does everybody not like Signals that much? Does New World Man mean nothing to you? Cry


*runs crying to Signals album and blasts it real loud hoping the people who voted for it can hear it*

signals. It has much of my favorite lyrics on it but musically cant stand agaisnt the others here.
 
 Btw Yarstruly, whats surprised me was counterparts still being around and Fly by night being gone. Also surprising  after I looked at the  'so far' list was the eponymous album being the first to go and power windows survivng so long.

The 1st real big surprise for me was that Moving Pictures went before Counterparts...I am going to have a follow up thread after the tourney ends to see how people would have preferred to see the albums eliminated.....

I am going to close this one a couple of hours early, since it seems very clear that Signals is the one to be eliminated and I am not sure I will be able to be on in a couple of hours from now....
 
 
NO MORE VOTES HERE....THIS ROUND IS CLOSED....ROUND 14 POSTED SOON.....SIGNALS IS ELIMINATED....
