Fundamental era weakest link - FINAL: Fugitive vs Integral

#1 Post by BlueSwan »

As predicted, round seventeen proved very exciting with each of the three contestants looking to lose out at different points.

To illustrate how close it was, heres a rundown of the score from each of the four pages:

PAGE ONE:
Fugitive: 2
Integral: 7
Minimal: 4

Integral takes an early lead

PAGE TWO:
Fugitive: 4 (total 6)
Integral: 1 (total 8)
Minimal: 7 (total 11)

A flush of votes gives Minimal the lead, while Integral recovers

PAGE THREE:
Fugitive: 7 (total 13)
Integral: 3 (total 11)
Minimal: 0 (total 11)

Minimal recovers, while Fugitive takes the lead with a sudden influx of votes.

PAGE FOUR:
Fugitive: 2 (total 15)
Integral: 2 (total 13)
Minimal: 8 (total 19)

In the end Minimal takes a decisive lead and is booted out.

So the final is between

Integral
Fugitive

VERY IMPORTANT: You are STILL voting to boot one of the songs. To make it perfectly clear, you are voting for your LEAST favourite of the two songs. I'm sure a few people are still gonna f*** up and vote for their favourite, but now you're warned!

Voted off:
3. Minimal
4. Luna Park
5. The Sodom And Gomorrah Show
6. The Resurrectionist
7. Casanova In Hell
8. I Made My Excuses And Left
9. I'm With Stupid
10. Bright Young Things
11. Indefinite Leave To Remain
12. Psychological
13. Twentieth Century
14. Numb
15. Girls Don't Cry
16. God Willing
17. Blue On Blue
18. In Private
19. Party Song

I'm gonna vote to boot Integral

A good song and a great live track, but doesn't even begin to approach the utter genius of Fugitive - easily my favourite PSB track of this decade.

Fugitive - mediocre production values and a little weak...

P.S. Thanks BlueSwan for doing my absentee votes and for doing this whole voting thing... it's been pretty cool. :P
Retro. :)

:roll:
Integral...
"I think it’s an amazingly good album, I’ve got to be honest with you. It’s one of the albums I feel most proud of. But for people who don’t really know us, and have a sort of an idea about us, ‘Electric’ is more what the Pet Shop Boys are meant to be."
(Neil Tennant, speaking about "Elysium" on the eve of "Electric" release.)

Integral - god knows how it has survived this long
Still waiting to hear the Adam Freeland, Manhattan Clique and Axwell mixes of Integral.

I can't believe it's down to these two... Although i like them both Fugitive is a bit basic and Integral dated...

Minimal should have won.

Tempted to spoil my ballot paper but i'll vote to bin Fugitive.
