RA Survivor *** R n R, Round 1 ***

[Sydneyfan]

Remember, you are voting for your LEAST favourite song from the list.

[Tim Simmons]

God, I don't know where to start.

[Tim Simmons]

Also, I'm calling Anybody Wanna Take Me Home? as the winner.

[Faded Rose]

I'm fully prepared for this one - I've just listened to the album twice while dog walking.

[FrigidRoses]

The last 3 songs all blow serious ass, but I went with boys.

[blueone]

This is hard because they're all pretty awful.

[blueone]

I went with the title song, it's dire.

[hold on magnolia]

I went with the title song, it's dire.

haha i kinda like that song. i went with the drugs not working. that song is pretty awful.

[simonbubly]

Im gonna have to go with 1974, poorly writen, poorly played. i can listen to a lot of this album unlike a lot of fans, but this is the 1st of about 5 songs on this record that i skip with regularity. ;)

[simonbubly]

Drugs not working has a pretty cool guitar part towards the end, which may have saved it for a couple rounds in my book. haha

[Rob]

This Is It is the worst song JackStark? really?

[Sydneyfan]

This Is It is the worst song JackStark? really?

I bet there's going to be a fight now. :upyours

[ericacartman]

I don't think I'll be participating much in this one. Snooze.

[JackStark211]

This Is It is the worst song JackStark? really?



Damn you Rob for exposing me!!! :mad:

[SkortBrun]

Went with "Luminol" since it's the only song I don't absolutely love on this album.

[Rob]

Damn you Rob for exposing me!!! :mad:
:lol :lol

[Tim Simmons]

LOLz.

[Tim Simmons]

We should have done this in 1 vote.

Vote favorite song.

Then move onto LiH.

So Alive

[Tim Simmons]

Thats just silly.

Anybody Wanna Take Me Home? is the only "real" RA song on this thing.

[la twinkle]

Shallow Im going, and I actually love this album BTW.

[Tim Simmons]

Actually the album is no where near as bad as I'm indicating.

Its a fun album. Pulls off the perfect Smiths/U2/Oasis thing perfectly.

This is the fun-throwaway album of RA's catalog.

[Tim Simmons]

That being said, I never listen to it.

[Rob]

Thats just silly.

Anybody Wanna Take Me Home? is the only "real" RA song on this thing.
That's a LIH track rea;;y

[Tim Simmons]

Then no surprise its the best one on the album.

[sipowicz]

I actually love the album, it is probably my second favorite, behind Gold.

[Christina]

The last few songs are really bad for sure, but the record is pretty fun up until that point.

[benmoore88]

this is my fav album. every song to me is great. but then i'm a rock kinda guy....

[kyuss]

used to not bother with Rock'n'Roll, but recently I 've got loads more into it.
...I can see why it has a pretty big split of those who love it and those who hate it though, but to be honest I've grown to love it :)

it's great to rock it up, & my vote is with another heavier album after easy tiger!
.....everything's getting too chilled with the Cardinals (it's all good though)

I went with boys for this round btw

[raisemyglass]

I went with Shallow:

But I'd be happy with Boys, Luminol, She's Lost Total Control, Wish You Were Here,.....


I'm surprised the Drugs is getting so many votes. It's not the best on the album, but I think it's much better than most of them.

[FrigidRoses]

WISH YOU WERE HERE?!?! One of my favorites.

[JackStark211]

not much on the album really does it for me. to be honest, the best tracks form these sessions all happen to be b-sides to this album.

[FrigidRoses]

Agree on the B-Sides. They were fantastic.

[benmoore88]

how can i get hold of these RnR bsides?

[Sydneyfan]

Boys has a pretty big lead at this stage....

[la twinkle]

I think Boys is a great song. A fun little tune, lyrically and all that, best way I can describe it.

[foggy]

I think Boys is a great song. A fun little tune, lyrically and all that, best way I can describe it.

I like it too, I like the guitar. I'm surprised so many people think it's the worst song on the album.

[Sydneyfan]

I think the "lonely as monkeys" lyric gives it the edge.

[autmommy]

WTF!!! 6 people voted for Rock & Roll?? That is one of the better songs on this album. Have to agree that it is a turnaround for me though, usually I am having a hard time choosing a song to axe, but this time it was hard to decide where to start, there were so many choices..only 4 songs I would be really sad to see go.

[Starlite]

So, it comes down to choosing between boys and drugs. :lol
I like Drugs more than Boys.

Oh crap, I took too long to decide.

[blueone]

WTF!!! 6 people voted for Rock & Roll??

It's boring and doesn't go anywhere. It has always struck me as an "artistic" song, but there's no possible way it can hold its own as a proper song, in my opinion. ;)

[la twinkle]

So, it comes down to choosing between boys and drugs. :lol
I like Drugs more than Boys.:lol if thats your preference.

[foggy]

:lol if thats your preference.

:lol :lol

[simonbubly]

come on, isnt this thread OVER?

[FrigidRoses]

I'm ready for Round 2!!!!!

[foggy]

It might be a day or two before this resumes as Syd's away for a bit. :)

[Sydneyfan]

I'm back and frankly shocked that J likes drugs more than boys. I think she needs an intervention.

Next round coming up soon.

[blueone]

I cannot wait for the next round of this highly exciting thing...
