Push Upstairs 24 35.82%

Kittens 18 26.87%
Shudder / King Of Snake 12 17.91%
Jumbo 9 13.43%
Cups 4 5.97%

this round, shudder / king of snake must be voted off. truthfully, i would've supported this being voted off first, but i didn't think it would be possible. now it's possible, because honestly, king of snake is really crap compared to kittens, jumbo or cups (despite their rather odd names).

agreed KOS has to go now, i love it really, but up against these, its the weakest link...

not sure if Cups is gonna win...cos, no one voted for it in my poll, well not to the extent above Jumbo....

I've missed a couple of rounds... Push Upstairs gone already. Well, I like it, but I understand: everything on a whim from here on in.

atm I'm thinking 1 Cups 2 Kittens 3 Jumbo 4 KOS but of course that will change in half an hour or so.

Are y'all serious with the votes against King of Snake?! When the track came out, i remember reading a review that it was basically a summary of all that was right and good about the previous 20 years of dance music. And i agree. Jumbo's lovely, as is Kittens, but there nowhere near as memorable as KoS. In fact, this might get me in trouble, but i sort of consider Jumbo as Cups-lite. Washy pads with a downtempo beat and analog bassline, both. Except Cups up and rocks at the end!

Good, someone else is up for axing KoS. Let's make with the votes here and off this overrated track.

Stagger/KoS. guitar tuning + i feel love ripoff :) (i love it really but it pales into significance behind the others).

mmm... since few rounds (when something like a mama left before KoS) i find every new round of this poll very weird... so i'm in for axing KoS!

(btw Stimpee thanx a lot for the hybridized site you posted in another thread... very good site & amazing mixes... you definitely know too much!!!)

I had no idea that Kittens was so well-liked to make it into the eighth round. That's been one of the biggest surprises for me so far on these polls. Nevertheless I've done my bit to make sure it doesn't get to round 9. ;)

sad really. Kittens is a great track. KoS live far outweighs the album version, so i gave it the boot. looks like Karls least-favorite Jumbo has some staying power.

KoS still around? Bye-bye. How can Kittens be losing? Hands down the best track on the album.

I always got the feeling most people viewed Kittens as a throwaway track, I'm surprised it made it this far too. It's one of my favorites on the album.

I'm voting 4) Jumbo 3) Kittens 2) King of Snake 1) Cups

Hey, this one is actually a close vote. Yeah, I'd prefer "Kittens" to "King of Snake" any day. I think "Cups" is the best song on the album though.

Bye Kittens. As a music piece, this is definately the weakest and least inspired track left. All it is is drums, drums, drums and then a tick-a-tick-a-tick-a-tick sound and then a warbling pad that seems to go nowhere and sounds like it was recorded in 8-bit over a telephone. I mean, what the hell? As least Winjer was more artistically challenging.

Jumbo on the other hand, no way I'm voting for Jumbo. You can't tell me that the middle of the track is nothing short of UW's best moments. The whole thing really. I just don't like how lazy it sounds when they play it live. They need to turn the bass up and let the kick drums KICK, and then it'd be their greatest live song ever.

You should hear them perform it nowadays then, they start off with a kick ass breakbeat. Continiouing with the Jumbo we know, but still, it's really nice.
