Title: The Cure Song Election - Seventeen Seconds
Post by: Whiskers on November 22, 2010, 04:21:12
The Three Imaginary Boys election is over, and now we move on to Seventeen Seconds.

Again, the rules:
1. Always vote for the song you like the least.
2. After 1 day (more than 24 hours), the song that got the most votes has to go and will be dismissed.
3. Then vote for a song of the updated list you like the least.
4. This will go on until there is only one song left, and that would be the most popular song of Seventeen Seconds.
5. In case of a changed vote only edit your original vote post for that particular round do not post a new post saying "i change my vote to so and so" - that makes it really difficult to count rounds.

6. In case of a tie, there will be one more day to vote for the songs with equal votes only. The song that gets most voted during that day will win.


These are the songs on Seventeen Seconds:

1.) A Reflection
2.) Play For Today
3.) Secrets
4.) In Your House
5.) Three
6.) The Final Sound
7.) A Forest
8.) M
9.) At Night
10.) Seventeen Seconds

My vote goes for "The Final Sound"

The top three of Three Imaginary Boys (http://curefans.com/albums-and-songs/the-cure-cong-election-three-imaginary-boys/msg71797/#msg71797):
1.) 10:15 Saturday Night
2.) Fire In Cairo
3.) Subway Song

The Final Sound would rate as my least favorite.

Ok, this is going to be hard because there are in my opinion much better songs than in Three Imaginary Boys... but if I have to pick up one that would be also The Final Sound.

I think from here up until Wild Mood Swings will be hard for me.

"The Final Sound" will not be heard anymore, giving it the 10th place spot. These are the remaining songs on Seventeen Seconds:

These are the songs on Seventeen Seconds:

"A Reflection"
"Play For Today"
"Secrets"
"In Your House"
"Three"
"A Forest"
"M"
"At Night"
"Seventeen Seconds"

I don't know whether to vote for Three or A Reflection, but if I had to choose one to never hear again, it would be A Reflection, so that gets my vote

No more playing at night in your house, as that song is now out of the running, taking 6th place.

These are the remaining songs on Seventeen Seconds:

"Play For Today"
"Secrets"
"A Forest"
"M"
"At Night"

My vote is still for "Play For Today," even though I feel that that song is going to stay in the election for a few more rounds :(

Whiskers is not here, so I will take his place until he comes back :)

"Secrets" is out. These are the remaining songs on Seventeen Seconds:

"Play For Today"
"A Forest"
"M"

Remember, you're voting for the song you like the least. My vote is still for "M"

Unfortunately, the changes for "At Night" have come to soon. (and I mean it, that's my favorite song on the album)

These are the remaining songs on Seventeen Seconds:

"Play For Today"
"A Forest"
"M"

Seriously, "Play For Today" needs to GTFO
Title: Re: The Cure Song Election - Seventeen Seconds
Post by: ron on December 02, 2010, 06:35:56
Back in the mid 80's, I remember listening to the Happily Ever After LP and really liking M.  This was before I was a big fan but M always stood out to me along with a A Forest.  Today I'd have to say I prefer Play For Today in a live setting but for this election I'd have to say M over it, so my vote is for Play For Today.

Sorry Wiskers and Ron, I like Play for Today.

No lines from "M" will be sung, as it's not the favorite song of the album. It takes the 3rd place slot.

These are the last two songs on Seventeen Seconds:
"Play For Today"
"A Forest"

For the final time, my vote is for "Play For Today"

The moves have been considered, and the reward for top song on Seventeen Seconds does not go to "Play For Today," going instead to "A Forest."

10.) The Final Sound
9.) A Reflection
8.) Three
7.) Seventeen Seconds
6.) In Your House
5.) Secrets
4.) At Night
3.) M
2.) Play For Today
1.) A Forest


Up next... Faith!
