Don’t even try to step on Christmass!
I’ll go as far as to create multiple signatures to save it.
Not.
No idea how to do that

I certainly admire people's dedication to their favs. Fortunately for me none of my absolute favorites have been voted against yet. That may change soon.
Sadly danjersey, I must again vote against Christmass this round. I think it's the weakest of the remaining trove. |

We're in quibble territory now. To me, the contenders are:
Bluefinger - don't like the typography
DITS - don't like the black frame
FMRM - looks a little photoshop filter-y
SMYT - don't like the typography
I'll go with... Show Me Your Tears. |

I want to vote for Christmass, but danjersey scares me. I'll go with Oddballs.

How come NSE is listed as out of contention in the most recent thumbnail post?
If it is still in contention I shall vote for it, if not I will vote for FMRM. |

Haha my bad losing track of days / votes! Will have to retract my vote for the already eliminated NSE and choose something else.
Although I don't hugely love SMYT artwork I like the symbolism of the Maneki Neko cat for good fortune and good will. That and being next to the heart card suit as well as the gloomy clouds in the background (which I've never really noticed before) makes me think there might be another secret meaning or message to it.
I'll go for FMRM - I don't dislike it but Ive started using it to scare the kids. Not that I tell them it's FB - I tell them it's Phil Collins and he's coming to get them if they don't behave. Does the trick. |

I kind of like the fact that round 15 ends in a triple elimination. He promised us peace, but that was a lie. Final results:
Christmass - 2
Oddballs - 2
FMRM - 2
SMYT - 1
BTE - 1
And just like that, the field has dramatically narrowed. How sweet will round 16 be? Time to find out right now!

Losing 3 in one round was brutal. Definitely getting tricker now.
I tend to agree DITS is one of the weakest ones left so I will go for for that. |

| DITS, as SMYT has more personality. BLD is the other album in contention, but those are the next three to go. |

| That is interesting. I wonder how that worked out that way. And what is the best album with worst cover and vice versa? |

Now this is some March Madness style drama for Round 16!
Halfway through the round and we are tied:
DITS - 4
SMYT - 4
About 24 hours left in Round 16, so get your vote recorded if you haven't done so.
Very exciting. |

BTE. It is a meaningless cover, in every respect.
