Results of Retro Soundclash #41

 

Joy Division - Love Will Tear Us Apart [ 10 ] [83.33%]

Althea and Donna - Uptown Top Ranking [ 2 ] [16.67%]

 

Right - It's a bit quick this time but I wanted to get this soundclash done quickly so I could start a new one. Anyway LWTUA easily triumphs over the two Jamaican teenagers. Which is a shame because it's a great single.

But on to the main event. Right JD join Kate Bush and The Kinks on 5 wins so it's time for a bit of a test. There's only one band I could put it up against - New Order.

 

You have until whenever I get round to announcing the results to vote!

Oooooooh, now THAT is a good one.....

 

I'm really gonna have to go away and think about this.... :thinking:

easy... jd.... no jd, no new order.

Yeah but is LWTUA the better song?

yes, by a mile :)

Voted for New Order this time. Blue Monday is a classic.

without a shadow... Blue Monday.

Joy Division

I couldn't decide but still it's Joy Division :cheer:

It was a hard choice, but JD just edges it.....

 

I'd be a tad hypocritical anyway if I plumped for NO, after all I did put "Love Will Tear Us Apart" as my No1 Indie fave in that big thread I did.... :lol:

Close but still Joy Division for me

went for New Order this time :music:

NEW order

 

B)

You couldn't have made it any harder this week as they are almost the same band.

But that brings it right down to the songs then!

Shameless bump

How much longer should I keep this one open for?

Depends on whether you want Blue Monday to win or not. But you bumped the last two so it looks like time may need to be called.

 

I think it should close now anyway so LWTUA can beat Take On Me :D

as long as you normaly do... it isnt going to be a convincing victory either way no matter how long its open.
