Hey Little Tomboy is creepy. Banging women by the pool is fun and conjures up warm summer thoughts a Beach Boys song should.

I count 13 for both Where I Belong and Getting Late. I'll leave voting open for another 20 minutes from right.....NOW!

Edit: "Getting Late" was a typo. I meant it was a tie between WIB and Getcha Back.

Disappointing, but previous tournaments have shown that Where I Belong seems to a more polarizing song than Getcha Back even though it's a clear favourite for many.

I suppose the right song won, at least out of the remaining.

Here's how I'd rank it:

12. California Calling.
11. Male Ego.
10. It's Just A Matter Of Time.
9. I'm So Lonely.
8. Passing Friend.
7. It's Gettin' Late.
6. Crack At Your Love.
5. Where I Belong. 
4. She Believes In Love Again.
3. I Do Love You.
2. Getcha Back.
1. Maybe I Don't Know.

So what was GertieJ's final vote for then?  If it's Where I Belong then that would leave it at a tie I believe.

Gertie voted for IGL, crossed that out and voted WIB. At this point (1:38 pm MST) the vote was 13 to 13. Then Gertie changed it back again to IGL. This made the vote 12 to 13 in GB's favor and it was the final vote within the prescribed 20 minutes.

Sum: no typo at all.

Welcome back to the FINAL (redo). A misunderstanding on my part has contaminated the results. Remember to be respectful of others opinions. Please don't spam the thread with too much opinionating (a little is ok  :D ).... and without further ado...

For me this album  is fraught with tracks which bear little resemblance to THE BEACH BOYS and far too much much resemblance to Culture Club. My least favorite Beach Boys album.

Quote
The Beach Boys is the self-titled twenty-fifth studio album by American rock band The Beach Boys, released on June 10, 1985. Produced by Steve Levine, the album is the band's first to be recorded after the death of founding member Dennis Wilson. It was also the first of the band's albums to be recorded digitally and released on CD. It's also the last album released by James William Guercio's Caribou Records.

For the album, the band hired Culture Club producer Steve Levine, who took them into the world of drum machines, synthesizers, sampling, and hi-tech recording technology. Brian Wilson, Carl Wilson, Mike Love, Bruce Johnston and Al Jardine all took an active role in the project, writing several new songs for it, with Stevie Wonder and Culture Club each donating a song. The album was recorded during summer 1984 at Red Bus studio in London, and Westlake Audio in Los Angeles during late 1984/early 1985. It features Motown artist Stevie Wonder on harmonica and keyboards on the song "I Do Love You", which he also wrote. Ringo Starr also appears on the track "California Calling" (Starr also appeared live with The Beach Boys in 1985 during the 4th of July concert in Washington D.C.). Noted guitarist Gary Moore features on all tracks playing both guitar and synthaxe.

Although "Getcha Back" (composed by Love and his new musical partner, former Byrds producer Terry Melcher), was a top 30 hit, the album only reached #52 in the U.S. (making it their highest charting album since the release of 1976's album 15 Big Ones). After the album, CBS Records let the band's contract expire, leaving them without a record deal for the first time in years.

Brian Wilson contributed a song written in 1982 by himself and Dennis Wilson called "Oh Lord", but the song did not make the final cut. Also cut from the album was a cover of "At the Hop" with lead vocals by Mike Love.

Survivor is a  game of chance.
The Gamble starts with just one glance.
Male Ego has been voted out toniiiihigggggght! (19)  

Per the usual in the final round, vote for your FAVORITE TRACK! The track with the most votes is the SURVIVOR.

Tally on May 8th

Getcha Back
It's Gettin' Late
Where I Belong

Round#1 - Passing Friend April 19
Round#2 - She Believes in Love Again April 21
Round#3 - California Calling April 23
Round#4 -Maybe I Don't Know April 25
Round#5 - I'm So Lonely April 27
Round#6 - Crack at Your Love April 29
Round#7 - I Do Love You May 1
Round#8 - It's Just a Matter of Time May 3
Round#9 - Male Ego May 5

I despise It's Getting Late. It is a terrible song that shouldn't have made it as far as it did.

Getcha Back is good, but I don't think  it's the most incredible song on this crappy album.

My favorite on this album has got to be Where I Belong. It's got a great vocal from Carl and the chorus is one of the ONLY EMOTIVE MOMENTS on this whole album that doesn't feel like contrived, plastic, souless 80's music.

It sounds like the Beach Boys.

Final tally in 24 hours.

VOTE !!!!!!!

Again, as much as I love Carl's two songs here, my vote goes to "Getcha Back."
