The round will officially restart at 8:00 Eastern. Barring a sudden surge of players arguing differently, we'll go with option 2, with the immunity changed to Those Shoes.
That means everyone who has voted so far will have to re-vote, so please withhold your votes until then.
Sorry for the confusion and thanks for being so understanding, guys.
In the most discombobulated results round in the history of the Survivor games on this board....
The fourth song to be voted off of The Long Run Survivor is The Sad Cafe. Sorry, "Sad Cafe," fortune didn't smile upon you after all. The tribe has spoken and it's time for you to leave the island. The rest of the songs may return to camp.

WHEW!
OK, well, now that that's all taken care of....
I cast my vote for The King of Hollywood.
The subject matter is just too icky for me to enjoy it.
I vote King of Hollywood.
Say goodbye King Of Hollywood - say goodbye, baby...
My vote goes to In The City.
I vote for Heartache Tonight.
Wow, I missed all the drama.
My vote goes to KOH.
If this goes thru twice, Sorry. I vote for King of Hollywood.:bye:
I vote King of Hollywood.
I cast my vote in this round for 'King of Hollywood'. Once again, Sorry Lou!
You guys are killing me!!! What is so bad about King Of Hollywood? In my opinion (for what it's worth), KOH is one of the best songs on this album.
SAVE KING OF HOLLYWOOD!!!
I vote for In The City.
I cast my vote for In The City .
King of Hollywood reminds me of my law firm days, brimming with ambition and motivation to make a positive impact on the world and realizing the Powers That Be would blunt my efforts at every turn unless I engaged in certain extracurricular activities. Nothing sexy, attractive or even remotely appealing about it. (Though it does prove slightly inspirational insofar as revvinging the fight-or-flight response and low-grade homicidal impulses.) In spite of the lyrics, I do not much care for the melody, either. It's one I always skipped - reads like a cheesy '80s song from a B-grade movie with the kitsch echo effects and useless repetition. By contrast, Those Shoes actually has the sexy undertone to it - the narrator acknowledges that she "gets whatever [she] choose[s]."
I vote for King of Hollywood.
(Cracks knuckles and goes to stand behind Those Shoes.)
Ditto, ditto, ditto. :DQuote:

What is with the hate against In The City?
But it is an Eagles song! The fantastic oohs and ah-ha's showcase the Eagles unique harmonies. I love the way the song starts with the DA-DA, DA-DA guitar chords. Joe's vocals are as good as he gets. Did I read here somewhere (from Mike, I think) that this vocal is the highest Joe ever wrote for himself? When the song reaches the point of that high note you are rooting for Joe to hit it, and he always does! The guitar solo is excellent and the gritty lyrics achieve their goal of making you feel how hard city life is.Quote:

I hate Glenn's vocals on this song, he's practically talking instead of singing, which leads to the fact that the song isn't very melodic. Granted, there is some good guitar work, but the song seems so long that it takes forever to get to it. Yes, it does a good job of depicting the seedy world of Hollywood, but I don't like "seedy" and I don't like feeling like I have to take a shower after I listen to a song.
I do!!! http://bestsmileys.com/expressions/9.gifQuote:

Having said that, I might surprise a few people here (including myself), when I cast my vote for that very song - King Of Hollywood. I love it, but I think the remaining songs - bar Those Shoes, which is immune - are probably slightly superior. I absolutely adore In The City. The guitar work is incredible, as are the harmonies - I love Joe's raw vocals. It seriously rocks live, and it gets me going every time I hear it. That last minute or so of the song is on another level. I can't bring myself to vote for it right now, not even to save King Of Hollywood.
I agree with Willie! :thumbsup:Quote:

Soda, I really meant that the performance of KOH was what I find sexy. Not the man himself! Ick! :lol:Quote:

Another thought about KOH. I don't dwell on the subject matter of a song. It's the voices and the music that first tell me whether to like a song or not. But that's just me. Everyone's different.
So, for this round, I vote for I Can't Tell You Why.
Well...I did say I hated Glenn's vocals in KOH :blush:. Okay, 'hate' is such a strong word, but I really, really dislike his vocals there.Quote:

ITA with ABM and PM on KOH. ;)
Ah, how I love our alphabet soup! lol
You had me...right up to the part where you voted it off!! :shock::hilarious: You say it so well!!Quote:

Since KOH does not need my vote, I will try to level some playing ground. (I just like even ground, nothing at all against the song!)
I cast my vote for Heartche Tonight.
Wow!! I sure have missed out on some very interesting action in this game. Sorry i've missed the last few rounds.
I've gotten caught up but i'm just a little bit confused. Am I still eligible to vote this round? Or is it only the people that were involved in the last round that can vote right now? If I can still vote i'd like to vote for King Of Hollywood. It doesn't look like it would need my help but i've made my list and i'm sticking to it.
Jess - you are definitely eligible to vote in this round. Any Border member can vote once in any round whether you voted in previous rounds or not. :thumbsup:
No Jess, I'm sorry the new rule is that anyone who is voting for King Of Hollywood is not eligible to vote!! :lie:
OMG - watch out for Willie's rules! :lol:
And since King of Hollywood is going down, I am going to level the playing field like ltl did. So ...
I cast my vote for The Long Run.
Okay – the tribe has spoken and the next song to be eliminated from The Long Run Survivor is “King of Hollywood”. Well, King of Hollywood – For years we’ve seen ‘em come and go. I guess the man just wasn’t big enough because it’s.your time to go. Please leave the island immediately.
