Beaucoup Fish Survivor Final Round
 
Kittens 30 48.39%

Jumbo 22 35.48%
Cups 10 16.13%

this time, jumbo must be voted off.

Die Cups.

It's a great song, but nothing can ever diminish the electronic masterpiece that Jumbo is. Definately a top 5 UW track for me.

In my opinion, these are the two best songs on the album. Of the two, however, I would say that "Cups" is better. It's really the only song on Beaucoup Fish that I think equals the best parts of their first two albums in terms of creativity and atmosphere. It's also probably the only post-1996 song that I would consider putting in my top ten Underworld tracks. The short violin intro is awesome, then that simple eighties-house style beat comes in, the distortion on the vocals is interesting, the lyrics (the real weak point of this album) have some cool imagery, and of course, it totally kicks ass in the end.

That's funny my malted friend, when I think of Jumbo I think of a song that when I first heard it I felt that it was the most different from their prior catalog, but I loved it so much that it became an essential part of my UW collection.

It's terrible having to choose between these two, they're both so good, and my opinion on the matter is likely to be one of those things that changes from day to day. But today cups has to stay, sorry jumbo. :(

I choose Jumbo to win too for reasons already stated above.

Well, everybody wanted rid of "King Of Snake" and "Moaner", so this is what we're left with!

Jumbo deserves to win, its just a lush piece of music, perfect for summer.

Cups must win just for the last 4 minutes alone.

I couldnt give a toss now that you barbarians have voted off Kittens.

This poll is bullshit if Cups wins.

I cannot believe "Jumbo" is about to win this poll... From now on, I shall always skip it when listening to "Beaucoup Fish" and "Everything Everything"!

Nathan 02-08-2006 12:24 PM

Re: Beaucoup Fish Survivor Final Round
 
I already do skip it! Every. Time. :D

Yay, Cups!


(btw- hello everyone, i'm new.)

Skipping Jumbo is illegal in some countries.

edit: oh, and welcome Nathan.

potatobroth 02-08-2006 12:51 PM

Re: Beaucoup Fish Survivor Final Round
 
hi Nathan. :)


well, Jumbo was friggin amazing when i first heard it. i have to go on that principle alone. if Kittens and KoS are out, then i gotta go with Jumbo.

eagerly anticipating AHDO's poll. Sola Sistim, TMO, Luetin, Twist are all great tracks.

I don't. But I play the song anyway.

Wow, after 62 votes we have a tie. Impressive.

I don't know when the poll officially closes but I have a succinct feeling that if another 62 people voted it'd still be 50/50 or really close. In the end we're talking about two of UW's greatest tracks; maybe they both deserve to win...??

I dont think either track deserves to win or lose so it would be fitting that its a tie.

Cups is going to win. I can just feel it. BTW, I've been voting for Jumbo to die for the past four or five rounds now.

stimpee 02-08-2006 06:34 PM

Re: Beaucoup Fish Survivor Final Round
 
woah. with 15mins to go it was neck and neck.

Now if it was the Jumbo Improv from the Osaka gig and Lemonworld show on the album then I would have voted Cups off...

patrick 02-08-2006 08:58 PM

Re: Beaucoup Fish Survivor Final Round
 
that was pretty tight... who did the final deciding factor on this poll?

i think cups is better, i might have voted for it although

Future Proof 02-08-2006 11:06 PM

Re: Beaucoup Fish Survivor Final Round
 
A fitting ending. A clear winner, with a 2nd place finisher that would have these forums arguing for ages. And that's how it should be -- BF yielded two of UW's finest works and they should be honored equally, even if Cups had one more vote.

Well done everyone. I've not voted in sync with any of the others but I feel good about this one.

Blueski 02-09-2006 03:58 AM

Re: Beaucoup Fish Survivor Final Round
 
i was too late... i would have voted off 'cups'. 'jumbo' is an all time top 10.

big screen satellite 02-09-2006 05:08 AM

Re: Beaucoup Fish Survivor Final Round
 
me too - i missed this one, been away from my machine (arrrg)

...i'd have voted off cups too...

that makes, Jumbo the winner - with these two extra votes... ;)

stimpee 02-09-2006 05:12 AM

Re: Beaucoup Fish Survivor Final Round
 
Kittens was the real winner anyway. It was just strategic voting by people that got it chucked out.
