Vote for your LEAST favorite songs!

This is a Survivor game. Vote for the song(s) that should be eliminated in this round. You get three votes.

As we progress the best songs are left standing. Each round is 2 days long. The top ten songs from this series will proceed to the next series, where they compete against the next group of songs.

Eventually we'll have an overall top 10, and then we'll eliminate those songs one by one until only The Best Heavy Metal Song survives.

For the full rules, please see this thread.

That's an awesome game boys and girls  B)
Extremely Brutal though, first series, first round and it took me 20 minutes to vote  :eek: (I had to you-tube refresh my memory for some of these)
I saw two people voted for Children of the Grave already, and seriously, this is insane  :p

So we're starting with a lot of classic old school tracks?

When newer (thus less known) songs join this round, I wonder if anyone will be bothered to check them out.

Re: Best Metal Song Survivor: Wasted vs. cornfedhick round 3 (Jan 11-13)

Hey!!!! Maybe I should start paying more attention to these polls -- the name of this one caught my eye, obviously.  As you might have guessed, I'm not voting for any on my own list.  I vote to eliminate the following Wasted picks: April Wine, Audioslave and ... hmm ... Megadeth, if for no other reason than it has a French title.  :p

EDIT:  Never mind, April Wine and Audioslave are already out.  I'll vote for [against] Hurricane and Breaking the Silence. 

Note, by the way, that Welcome to the Jungle is on both my list and Wasted's.
