AT LAST, HELLO AF IDOL
     The mad geniuses of modern rock and pop have landed, fasten your seatbelts folks! Now that the line-up has been unveiled, we can begin the AF Idol journey free of any expectations - we have the last place on lock and nothing to lose so LET'S DO THIS! Hoping to represent each of their 5 albums with at least one song, nonetheless we shall play it by ear- I'd like to hear from you guys of course, I'm certainly gonna need assistance on some of these! 1. Free choice 2. First OR last single from an era (you will have the choice of either the first or last single released from any album era by your artist) 3. Free album track choice 4. Free choice 5. Uptempo album track 6. Free choice 7. Should've been a single 8. Song to win (biggest hit / most loved song - end on a high!)  |

Literally ANY of the singles from the new album *.* and everything else already mentioned - especially 'Distant Past' <3
+ 'Spring / Sun / Winter / Dread', 'Fortune 500' + 'Cough Cough'

1. Free Choice
It'd be great to kick things off with a bang- Cough Cough imo feels like a perfect fit for that! Distant Past and No Reptiles are the other 'essentials' though maybe best saved for later? If you've got any suggestions, drop em below

I'd like to request 'Final Form' to be sent at some point because more people need to be exposed to the majesty of that song
Can't really go wrong with nearly anything in their discog though x (at least what I've heard, I kind of tuned out of paying attention to them during the 'A Fever Dream' era oops but their other 4 albums are all excellent at least). I think 'Cough Cough' and 'Distant Past' are both essentials for sure (maybe one of them in this round and the other in the final round? idk) |

Requesting 'Spring / Sun / Winter / Dread' especially outside of the obvious hits, I think I'd call that my favourite of theirs, defo either 'Cough Cough', 'Distant Past' or 'No Reptiles' to kick things off though.
I'm most familiar with the Get To Heaven era so anything outside of that for discovery purposes would be cool. |

2. First or Last Single From Any Era
Suffragette Suffragette Final Form Don't Try Distant Past [saved for later] No Reptiles [saved for later?] Can't Do Night Of The Long Knives In Birdsong Violent Sun Think this is a good chance for one the Re-Animator singles! (Violent Sun is so good ) also Night Of The Long Knives is one of the highlights off AFDif we really want to play risky there's Suffragette or Final Form *.* (there is a Man Alive track definitely lined up for a future round)

Unless I am being dumb wouldn't the options from 'Man Alive' be 'Suffragette Suffragette' and then just one of the two between 'Schoolin'' and 'Final Form'? (A bit unclear on whether 'Final Form' counts as a single or not, I know it has a music video but the Fountain of Knowledge ™ doesn't list it as a single
)This list contains so many of my favourite songs from them ('Schoolin'', 'Don't Try', 'In Birdsong' and 'Violent Sun' were all #1s in my personal chart) - I think I'd go with 'Violent Sun' if you think this would be a good round for the 'RE-ANIMATOR' era  (although if 'Final Form' counts then a big part of my soul wants to punt on that as per my previous post)

Oh yeah that does sound very much like it should be considered a single - looks like Wikipedia are just dumdums then x
(I see that 'Photoshop Handsome' and 'MY KZ, UR BF' were also re-released after 'Schoolin'' came out to further complicate that lol - the chronology of this era is a little muddy in my mind as I don't remember if I heard those two songs before or after the re-releases oops) |

Thanks for entering 'Violent Sun'. It's a nice discovery for me! I need to re-listen to the round again (I never vote after just one listen) but I hope I can fit it in my votes!
