Title: The Cure Song Election - Three Imaginary Boys
Post by: Whiskers on September 08, 2010, 03:46:04
Hey everybody.

Thought it would be cool to do a democratic election, which song of each album is really the most popular one.

It works like this: choose from the 13 songs of Three Imaginary Boys the song you like the least. After one day, I'll count all the posts and the song with the most negative votes will be erased. The whole procedure will go on with the remaining songs, until there is only one song left, which would be the most popular and (maybe) best song of the whole album.

Right! Here we go!



These are the songs of Three Imaginary Boys

"10:15 Saturday Night"
"Accuracy"
"Grinding Halt"
"Another Day"
"Object"
"Subway Song"
"Foxy Lady"
"Meathook"
"So What"
"Fire in Cairo"
"It's Not You"
"Three Imaginary Boys"
"The Weedy Burton"



My vote for this round goes to "Foxy Lady."

We're already have the Best of of each album (http://curefans.com/albums-and-songs/faq-albums-and-songs/) but I'm curious to see if your method lead us to a different choice ;)

My vote in this case is for "Foxy Lady" too!

I don't like studio version of Fire in Cairo. Werchter's version is better...
