Let's kick off a new Survivor with a band which have provided some of the most memorable dance songs over the past few years - Clean Bandit

We'll start the first couple of rounds as double eliminations so please pick your TWO least faves. The two with the most votes will be eliminated.

Posted by: dobbo 25th August 2019, 11:44 AM

Oh this is gonna be a good one (although I'm gonna HATE some of the early results likely)

Going for their first & last, A+E and Lost

Posted by: Jαsє 25th August 2019, 11:45 AM

I'm already raging at 'Tears' having a vote

But yeah, this should be an interesting survivor!

Posted by: coi 25th August 2019, 11:47 AM

Mama and Lost. Hopefully their early stuff doesn't go out immediately.

Posted by: Frenchie 25th August 2019, 11:48 AM

Excited for this! Easily ‘Mama’ and ‘Lost’.

I feel like so much of the dislike for Dust Clears is projection! It has a great wee drop

E: uch its pick 2?? Add one for the bottom track for me then

Posted by: BridgeCow 25th August 2019, 12:01 PM

Gone with the two most recent, Mama and Lost. Really don’t get all the hate for Dust Clears tbh

Posted by: danG 25th August 2019, 12:03 PM

Intentions and Mama for me.

Mama is their weakest single by some stretch.

Posted by: dandy* 25th August 2019, 12:23 PM

Agreed, Mama is just miles behind everything else.

Posted by: Cqmerqn 25th August 2019, 12:24 PM

Mama and Lost

Posted by: SLlewellyn 25th August 2019, 12:27 PM

Lost for me - didn’t realise it was a double vote.

Posted by: Klimawechsel 25th August 2019, 12:44 PM

why do we hate Mama so much guys? still don't understand the hate!

Went for the two I haven't heard, Intentions and Lost.

Posted by: Izzy 25th August 2019, 12:47 PM

Real Love and Tears easily. Their earliest stuff had really better not go for a long while, particularly not Dust Clears and Mozart’s House.

Also Lost is a tune.

Edit: oh shit, forgot about that I Miss You abomination. Well it’s not going this round so it’s okay but I’ll be voting for it until it goes, unquestionably their worst don’t even try me

Posted by: dobbo 25th August 2019, 01:01 PM

IKR, I really feel like its the controversial video which turned people against it. It's a fantastic song!

Posted by: Medellíam 25th August 2019, 01:36 PM

Nah, Mama is basic as f*** which is why people don't like it. People expect, or expected, better from Clean Bandit.

Posted by: Jαsє 25th August 2019, 01:45 PM

Same! Will never get it tbh.

Posted by: danG 25th August 2019, 03:08 PM

tea!

thankfully they’ve turned it around a bit with Lost but I worry for their future lead artist material.

Posted by: dandy* 25th August 2019, 03:30 PM

OMG A&E is a tune, why is that getting so many votes?

Posted by: JosephAvery 25th August 2019, 03:45 PM

I hope everyone voting for Lost has actually heard it cause I think it's classic Clean Bandit and works brilliantly

Posted by: Izzy 25th August 2019, 04:00 PM

Yeah this isn’t boding well for future rounds.

I was kinda ambivalent on A&E until I saw them live and they opened with that glorious slow classical opening, been one of my favourites ever since. That beat is undeniable.

Posted by: Jade 25th August 2019, 04:23 PM

Ooh yay *.* I voted for 'Intentions' and 'Mama'!

Posted by: SevenSeize 25th August 2019, 04:42 PM

oh boy this can’t end well, expecting all their early singles to leave far too early

Mama out please x

Posted by: lewistgreen 25th August 2019, 05:01 PM

Yeah can we not lose A+E in the early rounds please, it’s one of their best.

Posted by: Chez Wombat 25th August 2019, 05:04 PM

Extwaordinawy, still such a piss-weak song. Though I'd honestly be OK with most songs post Real Love (except Rockabye and Symphony) going in any order as that's when they lost all identity.

A&E is great and should not be going, I'm going to riot if Mozart's House goes early.

Posted by: Klimawechsel 25th August 2019, 05:10 PM

those early songs are picking up way too many votes! Get rid of Extraordinary or Come Over if you're not a fan of that sound as Dust Clears, A&E and esp. Mozart's House are top quality are pretty unique to the UK music scene.

Posted by: Bré 25th August 2019, 06:41 PM

If 'Mama' isn't out immediately then you're all cancelled, that's such a clear outlier of quality in their discog.

edit: I see it's currently on course to go but tied with another song for 2nd place. I also voted for 'Intentions' but only cos I don't know it oops xx can I retract that vote (I actually didn't read the OP properly and voted for 3 songs oops, the other one was 'Stronger', so could a mod remove that 'Intentions' vote pls lol) ((edit: Joseph removed it now :3))

'Lost' doesn't deserve to be leading but I'm not surprised at it I guess!

Also at 'Mozart's House' having so many votes. The lack of taste jumped out.

Posted by: Wall 25th August 2019, 07:30 PM

Mama

Posted by: lewistgreen 25th August 2019, 09:35 PM

I mean of that list I was expecting Come Over to have more than 1 vote it’s not a great song

Posted by: Jαsє 26th August 2019, 10:15 AM

17-16-15-14

Well the bottom 4 is pretty unanimous

Posted by: Jason 26th August 2019, 11:44 AM

18-16-16-14 now.

Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 26th August 2019, 09:54 PM

I Miss You

Posted by: ElectroBoy 26th August 2019, 09:55 PM
