The election for The Head On The Door is over, and now we move on to Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me.
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 Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me.
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 Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me:
1.) The Kiss
2.) Catch
3.) Torture
4.) If Only Tonight We Could Sleep
5.) Why Can't I Be You?
6.) How Beautiful You Are...
7.) The Snakepit
8.) Hey You!
9.) Just Like Heaven
10.) All I Want
11.) Hot Hot Hot!!!
12.) One More Time
13.) Like Cockatoos
14.) Icing Sugar
15.) The Perfect Girl
16.) A Thousand Hours
17.) Shiver And Shake
18.) Fight
My first vote goes to "A Thousand Hours."
The top three of The Head On The Door (http://curefans.com/albums-and-songs/the-cure-song-election-the-head-on-the-door/msg72413/#msg72413):
1.) Push
2.) A Night Like This
3.) Sinking
Good choice - A Thousand Hours is the weakest track of this fantastic album...this is going to be a tough election
It's very difficult... I vote icing sugar
The Perfect Girl
A Thousand Hours. Remove it and the album is still perfect. Look out Torture - you're next. :twisted:
pffffffffff difficult ....
The Perfect Girl
Very very difficult...
Hey you
1000 hours
Icing Sugar
Icing Sugar
"A Thousand Hours" doesn't last even nearly as long as it said it would, and it takes the last place slot.
These are the remaining songs on Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me:
"The Kiss"
"Catch"
"Torture"
"If Only Tonight We Could Sleep"
"Why Can't I Be You?"

"Icing Sugar"
"The Perfect Girl"
"Shiver And Shake"
Fight"
My vote is now for "The Snakepit"
The Perfect Girl
Hey You
I only heard this as part of the album when the deluxe version came out, so the album I've been listening never included this. It just doesn't seem like it should be on the album and in quality it ranks with their average b-sides.
Um... The Snakepit for me, I think.
Icing sugar
Icing Sugar
Icing Sugar
Hey You
Please don't kill me but....... erm i kind of haven't heard all those songs. *shields self from e-hate flung this way* I will soon though, I'm discovering all of their songs slowly. There are quite a freaking lot of them okay!!!

Impossible!!! :eek:
"Catch"
It seems to be a fan favorite but this song has just never done anything for me besides the lyrics (which are always great in Cure songs)
It appears that "The Snakepit" writhes around in 13th place.

My vote is, again, for "The Kiss."
Before the election is over, what's everyone's thoughts on this album? Personally, I think it's sandwiched between two of their best, and if they'd just kept it down to one solid single album instead of including unnecessary songs ("Icing Sugar," "Sugar Girl," "Hey You!," etc.), it might have been their strongest album. I do like that all of the band members had their own input into the songs, though.
The Kiss
The album is not in my top 3 ... but more top 5 ;)
It's ok like it is.
Kiss me has a lot of my favorite songs! Like Hot, Hot Hot!!!, Why Can't I Be You?, The Kiss, Fight, All I want...
I really think is a very good album, definitely one of my favorites. Though, it has songs that I really really don't like such as Catch, Like Cockatoos, and A thousand Hours.
One of my aunts borrowed me the vinyl discs, I think that maybe I'm not going to return them, would you? :)
My vote goes for Just Like Heaven, never had been in my favs.
Just Like Heaven
Just like heaven
This is an irregular album with some awesome songs like "The Kiss", "Torture" and "Just like Heaven". I think is a transition (not only in the timeline) to what would be later "Disintegration". Contrary to "The Head On The Door" (mostly a pop album except for "Sinking") we can find songs that we couldn't imagine in that album like "The Kiss", "Torture" or "If Only Tonight We Could Sleep". These are the first signs of what would be the best album for many fans (not me): Disintegration.
My vote goes to "Just Like Heaven"
"Just Like Heaven" drowns deep inside of the 2nd place slot, making "The Kiss" the most popular song on Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me!
Here are the song rankings:
18.) A Thousand Hours
17.) Icing Sugar
16.) Hey You!
15.) The Perfect Girl
14.) One More Time
13.) The Snakepit
12.) Hot Hot Hot!!!
11.) Shiver And Shake
10.) Fight
9.) Why Can't I Be You?
8.) Like Cockatoos
7.) All I Want
6.) How Beautiful You Are...
5.) Torture
4.) Catch
3.) If Only Tonight We Could Sleep
2.) Just Like Heaven
1.) The Kiss
Up next... Disintegration!
sorry for the late reply but this album holds a special place for me...I think its right behind Disintegration as their best album.
There are so many styles and just amazing songs...really a perfect double album. Disintegration is the ultimate cohesive artistic statement from the band (Robert really) but Kiss Me.. is the Cure at the top of their game showing they can do anything they want
