i don't understand why 'stagger' is in the lead. 'air towel' has to be one of the most boring songs in the world, at least stagger has some emotion to it.

and bornslippy.NUXX has to be the worst song they've ever done. the original is 5 times better. come to think of it, why wasn't the original born slippy put on second toughest in the infants instead of air towel and blueski...?

Stagger and Blueski are my least favorite song on STITI. im very surprised to see Confusion taking the hits so early on.

How can you vote off Stagger - Karl gives Colonel Sanders a shout out!
Confusion would a better track if it were only 2:30 long...

How about this for alternate STITI: the first three tracks get to stay

Banstyle/Sappy's Curry
Confusion the Waitress
Cherry Pie
Pearls Girl (Tin There or 14496 or both)
AirTowel Jam (from the archives...more variety!)

Deep Arch

Yes! Exactly. I always thought the same thing. The album would have been so much better with "Cherry Pie."

Anyway, "Air Towel" is pretty simplistic musically, but Karl's vocal performance is very nice. "Stagger" is the exact opposite; the vocals and lyrics are kind of grating, but the music is incredible. So, I'll go for "Confusion The Waitress" so as not to vote for something that has no chance of losing. But personally, I never cared for "Pearls Girl." The opening (when the beat takes off) is pretty spiffy, but I always thought it went on for too long.

And for the record, I like "Blueski." It's simple but short enough to work. But I generally like all of Underworld's guitar songs. I wish they'd do more with guitars.

Well, the order is not what I'd have chosen but it's quite obvious that the final 3 will be exactly what I had in mind for the competition...

Wow, you're stealing my thoughts, I agree with everything you touched on ;)

my vote goes to Confusion the Waitress.
