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  ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Deadwing008/?chartstyle=Basquiat">

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

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 |
