Beach Boys Survivor #26 Winner: My Diane

[Alan Smith]

Match Point of sh*t.

A year or 2 before this steamer was fermented, an Australian group had a massive hit with a song depiciting the end of a love affair using a cricket metaphor (Howzat, 1976).

Strange days indeed.

Round#40: FINAL SURVIVOR

*Alan Smith gnashes remaining teeth and hurls withered fist towards the heavens* 

Can we do 4 at a time for SIP and Stripes?

[pixletwin]

I'm not opposed to doing something like that to speed things along a bit.

Yeah, that's an excellent song. It's by Sherbet, isn't it?

Round#40: FINAL SURVIVOR

I'm in favor of this, but do you think we should add Stars and Strips? I'm opposed to it, it's just a Country styled remake album of some of their hits.
And is there going to be rounds coinciding with Super Survivor about the songs that was first voted off, so we can also vote for the worst Beach Boys song of all time?

[pixletwin]

If enough people are interested I was planning on doing a Beach Boys Victims thread akin to Super Survivor and Final Survivor.

I'm in favor 100%!

It'll be just as interesting as the Super Survivors round!

You should have all the 2nd place songs in it.

Nah, I think that's going a bit too far.
A better idea would be with all the songs that were voted off first (Except with Shut Down Volume II, All Summer Long, and Today!)

Round#40: FINAL SURVIVOR

Don't forget to post the Odds and Ends tracklisting early in case any additions are needed. I think Stars and Stripes is unnecessary. We should have a vote for Stars and Stripes being included.

I reckon 2nd place songs would be more reasonable. TM Song, Here Comes The Night and Mama Says don't really need another chance to try and win. How about Beach Boys Escaper. We take the bottom song from each round. We then vote off our favourite song of the bunch until we find the worst Beach Boys song.

[alf wiedersehen]

You guys want the same thing.

Yeah, but it's not like they're actually going to win. They're just voted off as "Favourite Remaining Track" until there's the final 3 of the worst BB's songs (which I presume will include Summer Of Love). At which point you can vote for the "Least Favourite Song"
And instead of the tracks first voted off of SDVII, ASL, and Today!, I say use the songs voted off next, because the ones voted off first aren't actual songs.

Am I misunderstanding, or did you just contradict yourself? You say 2nd place songs are the better idea, then go on to say that last place songs are a better idea...?

They're separate ideas. I thought that the worst songs would be a fun idea to see which song Smiley Smilers hate the most.

Yeah the idea was to find the least liked song.

Also yes, I will be posting the odds n ends track list 48 hours before voting begins to make sure it's comprehensive enough.

She`s Got Rhythm I guess.

"She's Got Rhythm"  (so hard to vote this one off!)

Round#40: FINAL SURVIVOR

After the late 80's and 90's winners inevitably get voted out first, it's going to be so hard.

Oh man. People thought Pet Sounds was a tough round. Wait until Every choice on the board is a song they love! It will certainly be interesting.
