I voted Stand Back. The energy behind it and all of that... IT's just amazing... Plus, it's like my favorite song to play on my keyboard.... ha ha

Much Love,
Ethan

Edge. It's a little more rockin' and you can't beat the 'ooooooooeeeeeewwwhhhaaaaaaaaa' growl in the middle, my favourite part.

Lyrics wise, both are equally great.

This is a really hard one .... Stand Back is an awesome song, but Edge of Seventeen is legendary.


Hmmmh .... Stand Back, methinks. By a hair.

It's extremely difficult to choose one over the other, but I went with "Stand Back" because I'm a sucker for synths.

^^^
hey, you took my reasoning.

seriously, nothing beats that, well, beat. EO17 has that famous riff and the growl, but, to me, Stand Back is a total tour de force beginning to end!

Which do you need more, food or water? Right leg or left leg?

tho i must confess that the polls r getting WAY outta hand, imust use this oppurtunity 2 support my undying luv 4 edge! the vocals on the album version r fo sho one of the best shez dun since 1981. and the live version is absolutely electrifying! tho ever1 (almost every1) luvs stand back, including me, therez just NO comparison here!
