Battle Of The Track Numbers - The Losers

Post by antiwal »

So, I've compiled a list with the tracks getting the LEAST votes - just out of interest (and boredom).

Annoyingly, there were quite a few songs with the same amount of "least" votes. For these, I thought the fairest way was to factor in their age. I deduced its probable that a newer song, with the same amount of votes as an older song, is arguably more likely to be favoured over the older song - given time. For example, 'Ghost Of Days Gone By' and 'The Other Side' both had the same amount of least votes for track battle 3. Its likely TOS will gain more traction over Ghosts with the fans, once it had more time to solidify itself in the AB catalogue. I hope that makes sense!

Nonetheless;

Bottom Bridge

01. Show Me A Leader
02. The Writing On The Wall
03. Ghosts Of Days Gone By
04. All Hope Is Gone
05. The Uninvited
06. Make It Right
07. Rise Today
08. I Know It Hurts
09. You Will Be Remembered
10. Cry A River
11. Break Me Down
12. Save Me
13. Never Say Die (Outright)
14. Symphony Of Agony (Last Of Our Kind)
15. Breathe
16. We Don't Care At All
17. N/A

Yeah but they were tied with The Other Side & My Champion, respectively. But I went with the 2 ABIII's as per my method above. :beer

It's horrible enough that My Champion got as much love as AHIG in the first place. xD

voting for most favorite does not result that the songs with the least votes are the least favorite..

you made false assumptions!

I never assumed they were the least favourite, moreover the least popular. You assumed wrong with your assumption ;)

just reread your first post.. you;re right.. lol.. but still.. it kinda was implied.. as they are not losers just because they had the least votes for being the favorite one.. ;)

Someone should do a track by track listing like we just did, but instead we vote for our least favorite song. I'd be interested to see how things compare.

I really like that idea! Do want to take the honours and get things rolling then?

Hmmmm...as long as people seem like they might be interested, maybe I will.

AB kicks so much ass that even this loser playlist still rocks. AHIG is one of my personal favorites.

Yup, I could listen to the loser playlist and be pretty happy with it all.
Another photobucket casualty... :(

That's a nice group of songs. Rise Today has one of Marks best solos, and Ghosts really shouldn't be on here either, same with I Know It Hurts.
