I vote for The Shadow Of Your Smile.
I vote for The Shadow Of Your Smile.
Wow! Speaking of twists and turns, I sure didn't see all these votes for The Shadow of Your Smile coming. I'm going to join Soda and try to urge the remaining voters to save this song. It is one absolutely gorgeous song, IMO. It is a great song anyway, but talk about an exceptional vocal delivery and arrangement - I've been on YouTube and listened to pretty much all the versions of this song that are out there, and to me, Glenn's version is the best of the best. The lyrics in this song are incredible - every line builds to paint an amazingly dramatic image in my mind. This picture created by the lyrics combine with Glenn's voice and the music (especially the sax solo) that results in a piece of music that is near perfection - nothing short of meltworthy. So please ...
SAVE THE SHADOW OF YOUR SMILE!!!
VOTE FOR ROUTE 66!!!

sorry guys , I vote for after hours.
I really like the shadow of your smile and he looks like he is having too much fun doing route 66.
I also like sentintal resaons.
so as I said...I vote for after hours to go
I have to admit I'm astonished. I thought "Shadow of Your Smile" and "After Hours" would be the final two. They're definitely my favorites on the album and while I certainly don't expect everyone to agree with me... still. They are the songs with the high drama, with the most emotion. Yeah, it's cute to have a song about taking a trip and that's nice and all, but it's got nowhere near the intensity or emotional punch of these two.
It has seemed to me throughout that the most dramatic songs were most people's least favourites. Hence the popularity of FSR which has no drama at all. I'm surprised by the showing of TLOL which is a favourite of mine.

Well TSOYS would be in my top few songs as well and like Soda I would also have seen it in the final 2 or three! For me this round was a toss between Route 66 and TLOL. So in an effort to save TSOYS I'm happy enough to vote for Route 66.

Well I won't be around when the voting closes tonight, so I need to go ahead and vote now. There are still quite a few outstanding votes so I'm crossing my fingers that the remaining tribe members will join us who love The Shadow of Your Smile and save it from going down ...
I cast my vote for Route 66.

I won't be around later either so to try to save TSOYS, I vote Route 66.
Ditto -- so with a heavy heart, I vote for Route 66 .
I vote for Route 66 again. Just no where near the greatness of the remaining songs. For me anyways!
