Long Road Out of Eden: First Impressions Survivor

[sodascouts]

Time for the Song Survivor we’ve all been waiting for... Long Road Out of Eden! If you're new, for a basic overview of the game, see this post: Survivor Overview

I'm going to list the songs of Long Road Out of Eden here. Vote for the song that you feel should be eliminated from the list. The song that gets the most votes will be taken off of the list (or, in the language of Survivor, "Voted off of the island.") Each round, one more song will get axed, until there's only one left. Remember: you're voting for your LEAST favorite, not your favorite.

Each round will last 48 hours after posting to give people a chance to vote who don't post every day. That means that the first round will end at 8:00 Eastern time the day after tomorrow. If you miss a round, don't think you can't play. It's all good!

Since there may be discussion posts, be sure to make it clear when you are casting your vote. Votes cannot be cast after the cut off time of 8:00 on the second day, and they cannot be changed once you have voted.

If you get confused about what round we are in, look at this post. I'll always update it to reflect the current round. Also feel free to post any questions if you don't understand what's going on.

If there is a tiebreaker, then ALL votes from ALL previous rounds are tallied and whoever has the most prior votes is eliminated. That’s the way it’s done on the real show, that’s the way it’s done here. If there is a complete tie with prior votes (Murphy’s Law), then I'll have a sudden-death trivia question ready. The first person who answers it correctly gets to break the tie. The odds of that happening are slim, but you never know, and it's good to be prepared.

Additional note: Because this album is still fresh, we’re going to hold another one of these next year after the songs have had a chance to “sink in.” This is our “first impression” Survivor.

The winner of Long Road Out of Eden Survivor is WAITING IN THE WEEDS.

I haven't really spoken much about this of late because it's "older", but one of my skipped songs:

I cast my vote for Fast Company.

[timfan]

I cast my vote for "Business as Usual". The negative commentary within the song just turns me off.

[Freypower]

Should I Dreamed There Was No War be included? We didn't include Wasted Time or Doolin-Dalton Reprises. I don't object either way.

This is going to be a very interesting game. I cast my vote for I Don't Want To Hear Any More.

[DonFan]

I cast my vote for I Love To Watch a Woman Dance.

Should I Dreamed There Was No War be included? We didn't include Wasted Time or Doolin-Dalton Reprises. I don't object either way.

Yes, because it's not a Reprise. It's like Journey of the Sorcerer.

I cast my vote for "I Love to Watch a Woman Dance"

I'm going to listen a bit more before I make my decision. I've just worked out. 19 songs with 2 days voting for each song makes it about a 5 week Survivor! Woo Hoo Hoo! This'll keep us going until Christmas week!!

I hope to participate in this Song Survivor soon. I haven't received my album yet, but it won't be long now!

I cast my vote for I Love To Watch A Woman Dance.
