Methadone Pretty and R.P. McMurphy.
Hey don't give me a vote if you don't like the results!

And that concludes Day 4!
So Dead was so easy to dehumanise, becoming track number 4 to leave the album.

Meanwhile, on the B-Side front, Bored Out of My Mind pretty much lived up to its name.

RP McMurphy is one of the best songs they've ever done, I'll have you all know.

Uh oh, looks like we've got a TIE!
Crucifix Kiss and Spectators of Suicide both received the same number of votes, so this needs to be settled.
The vote will be open for the next 2 hours and you can find it here: https://strawpoll.com/z967g4d4

New polls will be sent out in 2 hours' time.
Get voting!

It only took 2 votes, but Spectators of Suicide has at last been shot down with decadence.
Over on the B-sides, R.P. McMurphy collapsed in the fields, where it felt free.

Shocked and appalled that RP McMurphy got the boot.

Getting much harder now though on the actual album.

End of Day 6, and again we've got a tie! Just indicative of how hard it is to ick between the fine songs remaining.

New rule for ties: the song that has recieved the most votes over all days is eliminated.
Today was tied between Another Invented Disease and Methadone Pretty.

Over the past 6 days, AID has recieved 14 votes.
MP has recieved 5.

So with that in mind, Another Invented Disease needs to feel alone amongst the weeds.

Over at B-Sides, Theme from M.A.S.H recieved half the vote. It's gonna lose it anyway, you could say.

So with that in mind, I offer you DAY 7!

Voted for you live us as the album version kind of sucks. Glad to see Methodone pretty hanging on in there!

I nearly voted for You Love Us as well. In the end it was Methadone Pretty that got it in the stones.

Ain't Going Down got it in the b-sides.

I want to point out that neither are bad songs - it's getting very difficult now.

Really enjoying this exercise!

I've got bad news for ya...

Methadone Pretty got 25% of the vote, it surrendered in pity.
And Starlover is just a souvenir.

Fun(ish) fact: Slash 'N' Burn and Stay Beautiful are the only songs to have never recieved a vote.

^ agreed. I pretty much love all the songs that are left. Voted You Love Us though, because I'm kind of bored of it. Live, it doesn't get me jumping like the other 'classics' do.

Repeat (UK) just got the boot.
And Ain't Going Down failed to live up to its promises.

SO...
WE'RE DOWN TO THE FINAL 10!
