This has been a popular feature on another board I belong to, and I thought it might be interesting to try it out here.
The game is based on the concept of the TV shows "Survivor" and "Weakest Link." With each round, you will want to vote for the song or song(s) you want eliminated, not the song you want to win. Each round will be open for voting for at least 48 hours, to give as many people a chance to vote as possible. In the case of two or more songs getting the same number of votes, they will all be eliminated in that round, unless it is between the final two songs, and we will have a tiebreaker to determine the "last one standing."
For the first Album Survivor, let's look at the Beatles' 1962-1966 greatest hits collection, commonly known as the "Red Album." Here is the tracklisting:
"Love Me Do" – 2:23
"Please Please Me" – 2:03
"From Me to You" – 1:57
"She Loves You" – 2:22
"I Want to Hold Your Hand" – 2:26
"All My Loving" – 2:08
"Can't Buy Me Love" – 2:13
"A Hard Day's Night" – 2:34
"And I Love Her" – 2:31
"Eight Days a Week" – 2:45
"I Feel Fine" – 2:19
"Ticket to Ride" – 3:10
"Yesterday" – 2:05
"Help!" – 2:19
"You've Got to Hide Your Love Away" – 2:11
"We Can Work It Out" – 2:16
"Day Tripper" – 2:49
"Drive My Car" – 2:27
"Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)" – 2:05
"Nowhere Man" – 2:44
"Michelle" – 2:42
"In My Life" – 2:27
"Girl" – 2:31
"Paperback Writer" – 2:31
"Eleanor Rigby" – 2:08
"Yellow Submarine" – 2:37
Since this is a double album with quite a few tracks, for the first few rounds let's choose TWO songs to eliminate. After the field has been whittled down more, we'll go to one song per round, in poll format.
Which two songs would you like to see "leave the island"?
My two choices to boot are All My Loving and Yellow Submarine.
