Love Will Keep Us Alive
I totally agree with this post, Delilah except I'll never tire of it. This song is widely considered one of the greatest rock 'n roll anthems of all time, both for its clever, satirical lyrics and incredible guitar riff.
I'm glad the song is still in play, even though I don't like that it was saved by a technicality. Perhaps fate intervened because it still deserves to be in the game. The band recognized its greatness and adopted the song almost from its inception and made it their own. So come on Borderers, let's embrace this song the same way the band did and quit treating it like a red-headed stepchild.
Therefore, I will be glad to support a coalition to eliminate Love Will Keep Us Alive this round. I actually am one that likes this song and think it gets a bad wrap. But, it seems like there is an appetite to vote it off. Even though I like it better than some other songs still in the game, I don't think it is a great song compared to Life's Been Good.
SAVE LIFE'S BEEN GOOD!
VOTE FOR LOVE WILL KEEP US ALIVE!
Well said.
The guitar riff is one of my go to's in a guitar store or trying out new gear. It always gets the attention of the people around me. It's not overplayed in a guitar store like Smoke On The Water or Stairway To Heaven or Sweet Child Of Mine is (or others). So when they hear a recognizable riff that they don't hear often, they perk up and circle around. :lol: It's my most favorite guitar riff at this point.
I vote for Life's Been Good
I'll vote for Learn to be Still again.
I vote for nixing LWKUA
One more time, my vote is Love Will Keep Us Alive.

I wanted to actually go for Hole in the World, but seeing everyone else:
I vote for Love Will Keep Us Alive
Very sappy song. Timothy's vocals are decent, but overall, not to my taste. It felt like some pop rather than rock to me. Never got behind the hype. Even Learn to be Still was better.
Anyways, as for Hole in the World, I understand the lyrics talk about an important time for the US, but I never really liked it. It was average on a musical front. Though it has great harmonies.
