[Still Tired]

I went for Please, Please, Please, This Night and Stretch Out & Wait. Really wish This Night was doing better, it's one of my absolute favourite Smiths songs, I am slightly addicted to it. Badly wanted to vote for Handsome Devil too, but it seems to be doing fine without me!

 

[Tex]

how is Girl Afraid not in the top two..........what wrong with you people? do you have fully functioning ears??

 

[Disappointed]

"Handsome Devil"
"This Night Has Opened My Eyes"
"Stretch Out And Wait"

got to be JEane # 1. Top 5 easy

 

[Chartres]

"These Things Take Time", "Handsome Devil" and "Please, Please, Please let Me Get What I Want".

 

[Johan de Witt]

Will start the first semi-final later today.
Just a quick reminder of the songs going through.
First 4 of each round will go through, plus 2 best performing numbers 5 =
30 semi-finalists.

Top 5 of this (still undecided) round:

1) Handsome Devil 73
1) Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want 73
3) Jeane 44
4) Girl Afraid 41
4) Stretch Out and Wait 41............

I can't believe These Things Take Time wasn't in the top 5! One of my favourite Smiths songs ever.

If I had enough votes, I'd vote for all these songs:
These Things Take Time
This Night Has Opened My Eyes
Handsome Devil
Girl Afraid
Wonderful Woman
Stretch Out and Wait
actually, they're all great! This is the hardest of all polls.

I vote for These Things (of course!), This Night, and Wonderful Woman, it's sad that it got so few votes.

 

[unruly boy]

Difficult one, but went for 'Jeane', what a song.
