This round: The Ledge
 

Strategic, I guess

Nvh
 

Well, I guess that beats having the rest of Chris's songs voted out, if this conspiracy against "Never Forget" succeeds. Then Stevie's songs after that. And who knows when poor "Sara" will meet her untimely fate and drownD, in the sea of bad musical tastes. ;)

Who owns this damn album anyway? :laugh:

rondje 3:never forget
 

I'm still ashamed of what I did yesterday. Voting TAFE out.

But I tell myself that I saved Save me A Place yesterday by bringing in my JUDASVOTE.


So I'm proud!!!!!!!!!!!and all those SMAP-haters: EAT YOUR HEART OUT!!!!!!

Round 3: Save me A Place
 

This creature is like a zombie...it won't die.

Tynan

thanks for the compliment. :D

No Vote
 

I actually kinda regret voting for it now...it must be a very special song, if it's gone through so much already and always managed to survive.

I don't mind if oyu think it's a compliment though :xoxo: :lol:

Round 3 - Not That Funny
 

And I think I'll be voting for it for a long while...

Not a Vote
 

I think it has to do with the fact that Sara was the first to go in the first Tusk survivor. Poeple want it to stay a while.

Smap!
 

Of course, SAVE ME A PLACE!

I refuse to get rid of Never Forget so easily.

well, no vote
 

Alright, Sharon, I'll be there.

Yes, Save Me A Place survived by ONE vote. So technically you could say that! It was very dramatic, in a Fleetwood-Mac-Survivor-geek kind of way... sodascouts and I were on the edge of our seats.

Round 3 SMAP
 

and I'll come running, if you stop singing that chorus!

Round 3 - Not That Funny
 

I've got enough of it :)

Just get rid of all of McVie's and Nick's songs and you have a great Lindsey album :)

Don't forget to vote, Gazza!!!!! ;)

Okay, which song is the best to vote for to save Save Me A Place? :)

We have to be tactical here. I'd just get rid of all the Christine songs first if I wasn't.

Round 3 - Never Forget
 

Okay. That solves that.

this round is gonna be close between SMAP and Never Forget.

Someone else could easily say...How anyone could think never forget is crap is beyond me....It's a shame everyone guns for the beautiful, subtle, songs and defends Lindsey songs...believe me, i love some of Lindsey's "interesting" songs on Tusk, I just don't enjoy listening to SMAP - to me, the "interesting" he tried to do on this one didn't turn out very musically compelling...lyrically, it's ok...but musically I think he accomplished something better on other similar songs....

I'm totally in your corner where "That's All For Everyone," "That's Enough For Me," "Walk A Thin Line," "The Ledge" and "Not That Funny" are concerned. Those are all incredible and interesting songs, that deserve to stay and fight to the very end.

It's just that I don't think "Save Me A Place" is all that interesting. :sorry:

I don't mind the simplicity of the lyrics... it's not about that at all. I think he very effectively gets his point across with few words.
It's the thumping, plodding tempo that kills it dead in its tracks for me.

"That's All For Everyone" is the song I feel is most deserving of all of our praise, and the song that deserved a battle to save it from elimination.
Instead, it was unfairly sacrificed. :(

"TAFE" so beautifully conveys the genius of Lindsey's 'Tusk' mindset and approach, while "SMAP" falls on its face.

This is all, of course, only my opinion. But, for me, "TAFE" succeeds in all the places "SMAP" fails. :shrug:

Me too :nod:

Please johnny, put it on and:

1. concentrate on the bassline. It adds a great counterpart to the drifting melodyline.
2. The "moaning" ,irritating tempo is purely used for the also "out of focus" backing vocals (they never start or end in sync.)
3. Think about this: The song really is never in a beat. It's contrasting everywhere.

I can understand that people think that all is irritating, but if you closely listen to what he's doing there the songs' depth can open itself for you.

Not that I think that will happen to you, but it happened to me that way. I hated it at first (in 1979), too.

By 81 I was addicted :lol:

Trust me, Gerald, I have given that song so many chances over the years.
I want to like it... I really do. But I don't. :(

And it's not that I find it irritating in any way... my first impression of Lindsey's 'Tusk' songs was that they were all just a discordant mess. But then, I was struck by what Lindsey was trying to get across... that exuberant and carefree spirit of an abstract painting.

It's just that "Save Me A Place" commits the ultimate musical sin for me: It bores me. :sorry: :distress:

Part of the fun is arguing about what is crap and what isn't! lol

I didn't mean to dismiss "interesting". But i just don't think SMAP is incredibly interesting. I think some of his cali-pop songs are more musically complex. And part of the reason TUSK is diverse is the other singer/songwriters. And although I love many of LIndsey's songs on TUSK, to me, they sound similar to each other. Like, I think, if only lindsey's songs were on there, the album would have been interesting, but not diverse...if you can understand what i mean. I'm glad you think smap is beautiful and subtle. I find it hard to appreciate as much as some other songs with a more pleasing melodic sound. I don't think smap is crap, either, but just as you were with the other post I quoted, we're all trying to make a point in favor of whatever we like. I'm glad people like a bunch of different songs, otherwise there wouldn't be millions o' billions o' fans, and we all wouldn't have gotten to see the concerts or be here talking about FMAC. But there ARE many different points of view, so...uh...what was I talking about? :lol: :p
AMber

Actually, it's not that personal, but i will admit i like to argue... :lol: Only time I take it personal is when someone says "Amber, you're a raging, ugly bizatch and i hope you die!" or when someone ascribes emotions to me that i don't have.... :)
AMber

I know what you mean ghost. I don't really take it personally either but there are certain songs I adore. SMAP isn't one of them, but Brown Eyes, Sisters of the Moon and What Makes You Think are near and dear to me.

Indeed! .
