Here we will continue evaluating each LP from the Greatest Hits release Rearviewmirror.
We will now move on to LP 2 (Sides 3 and 4)
We will get a winner from each LP and those 4 will compete to find the winner.
Winner for LP 1 = Alive

For anyone new to the game:
You are going to pick the song that you think is the "Weakest Link" after 2 days I remove the two (2) songs with the most votes.
We will then move on to Round 2. - Remember you are voting to eliminate songs from contention.

Have FUN!

Poll will close on Wednesday, 7/5 at 3:00pm cst

    I can't believe that I'm also voting for this already! Great songs but the other seven are better/more essential.

    I know there are a few omissions on this compilation but it really is packed full of classic tunes (although I can't wait to see Last Kiss get destroyed.)

    While we wait for this to play out what, say, five songs do you think were the biggest omissions from RVM? They did seem to get all the hits included but also added in a few fan-favourites/non-singles (e.g., Small Town and Nothingman). If I could somehow add five more, it'd be:

    Porch
    Present Tense
    In My Tree
    In Hiding
    Faithfull... or Brain of J.

    Obviously, I'd like to include even more from Ten (Release - better live, however), Vs (Indifference, Blood - also better live), and Vitalogy (love Last Exit) but it's a shame No Code and Yield only got three songs each - not as big of a deal, I know.

    STBC isn't very good.

    This one was a dart toss for me and will continue to be until the end.  How to choose?  Egads!

    i like save you, but it's too slow on the album. the band gets some grief for how fast they play some songs live, but imo save you is a song that really benefits from that tendency.

    Looks like this round is basically decided.

    Agree with the majority, Save You is the weakest of this lot.
    Next round should be interesting with almost a triple tie...

    Save You should have never been included on a Greatest Hits album.

    "Spin the Black Circle" and "Save You"-- two of my favorites, going going, all but gone.  :frowning:

    Ah,  but wait! I still have them on CD!  :smiley:
