Know Your Enemy would make a great follow up due to amount on the album and just as much nearly b-side material.
But I'm enjoying this! Hope we get more Manics album choices next year or after this game ends.

I have always loved Little Baby Nothing- it was the song that made me 'get' the Manics. And it was the bit at the end that did that: "Rock and roll is our epiphany..."

Coincidental, seeing as it's the penultimate track voted off... and by just one vote.
So long.

And goodbye to Sorrow 16 too... the last B-side proper to leave.

So... it's all come down to this.

MOTORCYCLE EMPTINESS VS STAY BEAUTIFUL
and
MOTOWN JUNK VS YOU LOVE US (HEAVENLY VERSION)
It's been a wild ride... but there's still one more day. You know the drill. YOUR VOTE MATTERS.

So... this is it.

In second place, with 72.22% of the vote, is STAY BEAUTIFUL.
On the B-sides, with exactly 80%, YOU LOVE US (HEAVENLY VERSION).

So I do declare the following songs the winners:

MOTORCYCLE EMPTINESS
and
MOTOWN JUNK

Congratulations!

So... that's it for now, I guess. I'll do another one of these in the New Year. Instead of doing this the logical way and going in chronological order, inspired by this post...

WhatsAManic out.

I went for Futurology because the old stuff was done to death and getting predictable now.
Also we can choose a different chronological order which Starts from the edges, closing in on the middle.

For example:
1. Generation Terrorists
2. Futurology
3. Gold Against the Soul
4. Rewind the Film

and so on.

Me too, for the same reason.
