In The Time Of My Ruin wins the Survivor game. Which is something we expected from the beginning. Makes you wonder why we bothered...
FYI, the songs from most to least consensual go like this:
In The Time Of My Ruin
Elijah
Fitzgerald
The Real El Rey
Don't Cry That Way
It's Just Not Your Moment
Sad Old World
Fare Thee Well
Highway To Lowdown
Holland Town
Where The Wind Is Going
My Terrible Ways
Down To You
Kiss My Ring
I'd say Ring is way underrated, but I'm pleased with the overall result.

Survivor winners sounds like a great idea for a podcast...

But 'Speedy Marie'? It's usually the song I skip most often on TOTY, I never realised how popular it was.

I wouldn't argue much with many of those, but I'm surprised about the Pistolero winner. I'm too lazy to check, but Billy Radcliffe must have been right up there on that one.

Indeed, thanks to Denis, who managed to have twins while running the two FMRM Survivor contests. Merci beaucoup.

Too high: DCTW, IJNYM
TOO Low: the bottom 3 are all good songs, esp. My Terrible Ways
THANKS Denis |

Well, so be it. That order does not even come close to reflecting my opinion of the album.

My FB faves are constantly changing, as I discover new things in his songs, and burn out on others.
Denis, are you going to put the disc 1 winner against the disc 2 winner for a grand champion?

Well, when the site started and the survivor games started, we did Pixies albums, and all the other FB albums, so those albums weren't as knee-jerk as this one may have been. I find myself rarely agreeing w/ the Survivor winners.
