Title: The Cure Song Election - The Head On The Door
Post by: Whiskers on January 26, 2011, 07:25:19
The election for The Top is over, and now we move on to The Head On The Door.

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 The Head On The Door.
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 The Head On The Door:

1.) In Between Days
2.) Kyoto Song
3.) The Blood
4.) Six Different Ways
5.) Push
6.) The Baby Screams
7.) Close To Me
8.) A Night Like This
9.) Screw
10.) Sinking

My first vote goes to "Six Different Ways." I know a lot of people right off the bat are going to vote for "Screw," but I forgive you all for disliking such a great song.

The top three of The Top (http://curefans.com/albums-and-songs/the-cure-song-election-the-top/msg72412/#msg72412):
1.) Shake Dog Shake
2.) The Top
3.) The Caterpillar

screw , the most blatant example of white people trying to play bass. being a bassist
( one that actually makes rent money doing so), i feel more than qualified to state this, dont get me wrong i love what simon/robert  does most of the time, this is one song i truly despise ( along with most of the top as well)

"The Baby Screams"
"Close To Me"

You, above all, should know about "strange" choices, because you don't like Faith and The Figurehead so much :smth045   :)

Seriously now, I do like the song a lot but not as the other remaining songs

Damn, The Baby Screams didn't deserve to go! Oh well. Once again, I'm voting for Close to Me. Not that I don't like the song, I just think it pales in comparison to some of the others on this record.

"Close to me" didn't get too close in the election as it takes the 6th place slot.

These are the remaining songs on The Head On The Door:

"Sinking" slows down and sinks into the 3rd place slot.

These are the remaining songs on The Head On The Door:

"Push"
"A Night Like This"

My final vote in this election will be for "A Night Like This"

Also, I figured I'd ask: what's everyone's favorite song on this album? Mine is "In Between Days;" I was really surprised to not see it last into the final rounds.
Title: Re: The Cure Song Election - The Head On The Door
Post by: dsanchez on February 28, 2011, 21:08:07
"A night like this".

My favourite song on this album is for obvious reasons, "Push" (which is my favourite Cure song by the way)
Title: Re: The Cure Song Election - The Head On The Door

Post by: PAOKCURE on March 01, 2011, 10:33:41
My favourite song of THOTD is Sinking (nowadays).
I must say it is a big surprise to me that Push is a favourite Cure song for some of you. I mean I knew that many fans love this song, but I guess I'd never realized just how much.

Well I suppose it's worth the first place more than the rest, because I don't think there is any other song of THOTD that a fan could call it "my favourite Cure song"
