Time for the "Best of Timothy B. Schmit" Survivor, where we vote off what we've determined to the be the best of Timothy's music until we get to the last one standing!

If you're new, for a basic overview of the game, see this post: Survivor Overview (https://eaglesonlinecentral.com/forum/showpost.php?p=6551&postcount=7)

I'm going to list the songs determined by our "Best of Timothy B. Schmit" thread (https://www.eaglesonlinecentral.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1413) 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 Daylight 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. This holds true even if your vote is a mistake. Sorry, them's the rules!

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.

The tie-breaker question will be asked one hour after results are in, if there is need for it. The exception is the last round. If the tie-breaker does not resolve the last round, then the tie will be allowed to stand.

We also have immunity questions. We won't have immunity questions on the first or second-to-last-rounds, and of course we won't have them for the last round, lol. However, for the other rounds, we will.

Here's how immunity questions work. After the beginning of the round, I ask a Schmit-related question. The first person who answers the question correctly gets to pick a remaining song to be immune - no one can vote for it on the next round. You must include both your answer and the song you wish to be immune in your post in order for it to count. I'll allow two hours for someone to answer. If no one gets it right by then, then we continue the round as normal without any song being immune. You only get one guess per round, so be careful!

And the winner is...

Well, I want to do this. I can't claim nearly as much familiarity with these songs as the 'real' Tim fans but I will give it a shot.

Ironically, the song I have known the longest is the song I want to vote off first. I cast my vote for So Much In Love, which I am afraid I have always found rather twee.

After much deliberation on my part (it was rough listening over and over and over to these songs :hilarious:) I have decided to cast my first vote for...

In Roxy's Eyes

His voice is absolutely beautiful in it but it just doesn't do much for me.

Looks as if most are ganging up on So Much In Love this round--which I must admit, kinda surprises me. Any reasons anyone?

Is anyone else thinking, life is stressful enough, why am I adding this game to it? I really need to lighten up during these games. :brickwall: :)

This will be pretty hard for me, too, as I don't know Tim's songs very well, but I'll give it a shot. Hopefully, no one will get mad at me. I have a list, so this time I'll go with the flow.

I vote for So Much In Love to go first.

I cast my vote for In Roxy's Eyes. Whenever I pop in TMTT, this is the only song I have the urge to skip over. It is a nice song but not my taste.

I, too, am really surprised so many people are voting So Much In Love. :shrug: It isn't on my top 14, but I always enjoy listening to it.

Well, I used the word 'twee'. It's a bit 'syrupy' and sentimental and the lyrics are somewhat corny. It is well arranged, though.

Now isn't it funny. When I listened to these songs yesterday In Roxy's Eyes was right up near the top of the ones I liked.

OK, I see So Much in Love might be going down, so let me say a few words for it!

While I see how the song itself can be seen as simplistic and cheesy (as older songs often are), the earnestness of Tim's vocal really sells it for me.

As far as In Roxy's Eyes - that's actually one of my favorites! I think it's the beauty of the way he holds out "Eyes" and the note kind of cascades. Lovely.

FP, as soon as I saw your usage of the word 'twee' I had to smile. Paul McCartney uses it in his song English Tea from his album Chaos and Creation in the Backyard. You probably have it. I never knew what the word meant but I suppose now I can figure it out when used in context. That's the only other place I've seen or heard the word.

I am going to withhold my vote until tomorrow. These songs are all new to me so I really want to listen to them a few times before I decide. I will say that after a quick listen to them Roxy's Eyes is near the top of my list, too. It seems as if the Tim fans don't like it as well as the rest of us! (We're all Tim fans- you know what I mean!)

Freypower
04-01-2009, 09:26 PM
I have a lot of McCartney's albums but Chaos & Creation isn't one of them.

When I first met my very English husband he used the word 'twee' all the time to refer to something he thought was over sweet or perhaps contrived and it became something of a private joke. Now I mean no disrespect to the Tim fans for describing So Much In Love as 'twee' but I'm afraid that seemed to me the most appropriate word.

I'm going to go ahead and vote earlier than I usually do. I am also one that likes In Roxy's Eyes. I think it is really pretty and has a very nice melody, so I'm going to try to save it. So Much In Love is also near the bottom of my list so I'll join with others ...

I cast my vote for So Much In Love.

sodascouts
04-02-2009, 02:21 PM
I was thinking the other day that one of Timothy's signature moves is to defy your expectations when it comes to phrasing, melody, and musical structure in his solo work. When I say "Phrasing" I don't mean word choice, I mean where he pauses and breathes - things like that. You expect him to stop at a certain note, or a musical phrase to end, and he just keeps going and carries it over. In Roxy's Eyes is a song where he does that and it works well, IMHO. You don't expect that cascade after "Eyes" and it's a pleasant surprise. Another song where he does this very noticeably, but isn't on this list, is Voices.

I think his tendency to make unexpected choices might be a part of why he didn't do well in the mainstream; a lot of time, people don't like their melodies to be too different!

Of course, I'm just speaking from an amateur viewpoint - perhaps people who know a bit more about music can correct me!

Prettymaid
04-02-2009, 04:40 PM
Okay, it's a good thing I had the day off because I was able to really listen to these songs a couple of times and make a list.

First I want to say a couple of things in defense of In Roxy's Eyes. Soda used the word cascading for the melody and she is spot on. I love that part! I also love the key change near the end of the song. That is unexpected, too. I've been thinking about why the hard core Timothy fans don't seem to like it as much as we others. Could it be that most of you hardcores have his solo albums in their entirety, and this is one of the weaker songs on that particular album? All I have is the songs in this competition to compare it to. However, that doesn't make sense either because you have voted it to be one of 'the best of' Timothy's songs, so it must be a strong song on the album. I just don't get it! :shrug:

My least favorite of these by a mile is Playin' It Cool, and I would love nothing more than to vote it off now. However, In Roxy's eyes could be in jeopardy,

so I will join the pack and vote for So Much In Love.


Note: I had to go to ITunes to find whose version of this song I remember as a kid - it was The Tymes!

This whole In Roxy's Eyes thing has been bothering me, so I went ahead and played it every chance I got today. There is no doubt that it is a beautiful song, and unfortunately, I still don't have a solid reason as to why it isn't a favorite of mine. In no way do I dislike this song, but maybe PM is right about the strength of it on Tell Me the Truth. Compared to some of the others on that album (Down By the River, Something Sad, Was It Just the Moonlight, etc.) it may be slightly overshadowed.

I like the point that Soda made about Tim's music style; you don't expect a lot of what he does. It is a shame that his music never took off, he has some really strong songs, IMHO.

I think PM and Melrose are on to something---IMO-Roxy's Eyes is a very weak song in comparison for the rest of that album, that being said, it's not that I don't like it, it's just that I don't like it as much as the others! Regardless-can't vote for it now and since I started the whole bonus track thing because I don't feel Let It Be Me is truly a TBS song, I guess I better go with the flow here and vote for...

Let It Be Me

Ouch! I was hoping that we could form a coalition to save Let It Be Me by urging everyone to vote for Playin' It Cool. However, I'm afraid it may be too late now. I think Let It Be Me is a beautiful song even if it is a duet with Jackson. It is one of the best versions I've ever heard of the song including the original. In any event, I am withholding my vote for now to see what happens in the remainder of this round.

I agree that Tell Me the Truth is one of Tim's best albums - it is the most represented album in this game. But I also think In Roxy's Eyes is one of the stronger songs on the album. So I guess I'm still perplexed as to why some of the Tim hardcores don't like it.

Brooke
04-03-2009, 04:17 PM
My vote goes for Let It Be Me, also.

It's a beautiful song, and as much as I love Timothy and Jackson, I don't like it being sung by 2 guys. To me, it's a song for a duet with a guy and a girl. Sorry. :shrug:

Trivia - please excuse me this once.

When Glenn introduces the Tokyo version of Lover's Moon he makes specific reference to Let It Be Me as having influenced Lover's Moon with its chord structure. Its a nice song but there are other Everly Brothers songs I prefer - When Will I Be Loved, Cathy's Clown, All I Have To Do Is Dream. I don't know which part is Don and which part is Phil though.

Another hard decision, but I think Dreamer is right about Top of the Stairs. The vocals are great, of course, and the acapella is charming; however, the melody itself seems a bit too spritely for the lyrics, which are more seductive than barbershop.

I cast my vote for Top of the Stairs.

As Top of the Stairs is one of my fav songs from feed the fire... I cast my vote for Playin' it Cool and I encourage others to do the same.. One of the things I LOVE about Top of the Stairs is that, it is different and you've gotta love that Timothy tries new things and takes these risks when so many of his contempories are not. When I listen to Top of the Stairs and think about all those vocalizations being Timothy it just makes me smile...

Oh boy choices to be made :brickwall:! Ok MY VOTE IS FOR PLAYIN' IT COOL :sad:. Between it and " Top of the Stairs " I prefer "Top of the Stairs" for the reasons timfan noted. It's not one of my favorites but I do acknowledge the talent involved in making it. I listened to both again and decided to rethink my previous choice.

TOTS is one of my top favorite Timothy songs; like TF, I love the fact that this one is very different and that all of the vocals are Timothy's. I think the playful, doo-wop type of melody provides a great accompanyment for the lyrics.

I cast my vote for Top Of The Stairs. I agree about how cleverly the vocals have been put together but I can't really relate to this type of song. I'm glad I am not the only one.

TimothyBFan
04-06-2009, 07:37 AM
TOTS is one of my faves on FTF also so I cannot vote for that. And since Roxy's Eyes is immune again, I really am having a hard time with this one. I actually kinda like Playin' It Cool because it kinda defines the 80's for me, but obviously anything else I vote for is a wasted vote anyways, I guess I might as go with the flow. It really isn't anywhere near as strong as the others songs left.

I vote for Playin' It Cool.

Hey guys, I just wanted to let you folks in on a little strategic secret about this game. Since prior votes count for tiebreakers, any renegade vote you make now could be strategic later in the game.

For instance, even though I voted for TOTS and it's obviously not going to go this round, in a later round, if there's a tie, my vote could help get TOTS eliminated. So, you see, a different vote from the mainstream is actually not "wasted" at all, because it could make a difference later. By contrast, a vote for something that is already a sure thing doesn't really make much of a difference strategically; rather, it makes a statement about what you think of the song. Certainly, both are very valid reasons when you are deciding how to cast your vote - they just serve different purposes. The strategic method is why Dreamer almost always waits until the last minute to cast her vote; the statement method is why I almost always cast my vote first!

Okay - I am surprised and disappointed that Playin' It Cool will be eliminated so early. It is not my favorite, but there are several others that I would like to have seen go before it. But the tribe has spoken, so I'll continue with my strategy as Soda explained in her post ...

Well - I've not been able to get on the board much recently so I missed the last round. Man, I gotta tell ya, this game has me mystified. I am usually pretty good at predicting the general order in which the songs will be eliminated in most of the Survivor games, but not this one. I am shocked at how some of these songs are going down. Well, since I have to vote earlier than I would like, I am going to vote and hope someone else will join me to save In Roxy's Eyes ...

I just need to say one thing in defense of WIJTM to anyone who has not yet voted this round--especially since this is such a close round... Please overlook the cheesy space video.

I would also like to say something about WIJTM. Yes, the video is extremely cheesy, (and Timothy is extremely hot in it!) but it is a really good song...I just like A Better Day Is Coming a little better. I think ABDIC is catchier and I tend to enjoy listening to it more. It is so hard to pick between some of these songs...

sodascouts

No, the tie-breaker question is separate from the immunity question.

Here's how it'll work. I'll ask a question to determine which song goes. You have to put both your answer and the song you want to be eliminated.

Then, after that's settled, I'll announce the results and we'll do our immunity question as usual.

How many songs in the game are written SOLELY by Timothy, with no co-writers? Give me the number, and your pick for what song you want eliminated.

WOW!!! I sure missed all the excitement last night!!! A tiebreaker for the tiebreaker---HOW FREAKIN' COOL IS THAT? Yeah Timothy!!!! :yay: Your music is not only wonderful to hear--but fun to play with also! :hilarious:

PM--you redeemed yourself!! I will forgive you for the conspiracy to overthrow every song in this game except Roxy's Eyes.... but since you have so many co-conspirators, that song is STILL immune!!! :eyebrow:

It's not going to look to good for WIJTM now ... so I am going to withhold my vote till later and see how this plays out a bit (and since I really have no idea what song I want to vote for right now).

This is getting SO difficult!

I'll go with the crowd and pick Was It Just The Moonlight.

Since it looks like WIJTM is going down without my help, I'm going to vote for what I feel should go next (keeping in mind our tie-breaker quandry)!

I cast my vote for Down By the River.

Very sexy song, but I like the others better.

Well, I'm not ready to throw in the towel yet for Was It Just the Moonlight. I like the song, and as far as the video, I can get past any problems with content just by focusing on how :pimp: Tim looks in it. I am going to lobby this time for a coalition to eliminate Something Sad. It's okay, but I am honestly very surprised that it is still around. I like all of the remaining songs much more. As far as Down By the River, it may be my favorite of all - the song is simply rockin' and hot! I am going to go out on a limb and say that if Tim had recorded more songs like this, his solo career may have gotten a bit more notice. :wink: :nod: I will withhold my vote to see if the coalition works. Again, I urge everyone to save Was It Just the Moonlight ...

Vote for Something Sad!!!

Sorry, Dreamer, I can't save Was It Just The Moonlight, which I've already voted for a couple of times. I think Was It Just The Moonlight should be next to go.

Sorry- but there is no way I can vote for Something Sad or Down By The River yet and I do like WIJTM which doesn't look like will be here next round so with that in mind and MUCH deliberation, I have decided to vote for Make You Feel My Love.

Nope, I can't save WIJTM either with Something Sad. SS is one of my favorites!

And MYFML? Noooooooo!

I vote for Was It Just The Moonlight.

I really love Something Sad too, so I'm glad it's not getting votes. I love the vocal layering, and insightful lines like "Every day I get in my own way." A great song.

There are a lot of regulars who haven't yet voted this round. I'm going to hold off and see what happens. (Maybe that's what they're doing...) :woah:

PM, I was holding off just to see if a swing vote was needed... but ensure it's departure, I will vote for Was It Just the Moonlight.

I'm conflicted about MYFML. I do love it, but it's a cover... so I don't know what I'm going to do next round.

Guess I'll go ahead and vote.

I vote for Down By The River.

It just doesn't seem like Timothy's style to me.

Freypower

I have to respond there - it certainly isn't really his style, that's what is so great about it. Any song about New Orleans is going to win my heart. It isn't like anything else he's ever done and it is the type of song that would have fitted perfectly on Robbie Robertson's Storyville album (about New Orleans). I haven't expressed many opinions on these songs but I have to say that I love Down By The River.

I might like it better if it was sung by someone who has more of a bluesy voice.

Well as a strong advocate of Down By the River, I, obviously, agree with FP about this. The song may not be Tim's usual style, but it still suits him extremely well, IMHO. I think that's part of why I love it so much - because it is a diversion from his usual style, but he still pulls it off so well. As I said before, it is raw, sexy, hot, and bluesy, and I think he should have done more of this kind of music. For all those people who think he can only do slow, sweet, ballads - this song is definite proof to the contrary.

Now, it doesn't appear that Was It Just the Moonlight can be saved, but I'm going to vote for one of those slow, sweet ballads ...

I cast my vote for Something Sad.

You make a valid point here, PM, but I echo Dreamer's sentiments about it.

It's an okay song but the falsetto doesn't work as well as the one in The Shadow.
