You obviously decided to put Friends through. If we discount the last vote, we need to remove Friends from the Showdown and put Big Chair back in. ;) Hehe. And while we're at it, let's put Quite Free back into the competition too. Yeah! :)
Frankly it's a competition to find the best song, so Falling Down was right to get through ;)
Yeah! Song reincarnation! I knew that pickling was a good idea!*
*let's ignore the fact this would severely bugger up the next round :)
No, it's a competition to find the favourite song of the Board. Obviously the whole Board didn't vote but the ones that did voted for The Cage.
......and the ones who didn't vote would've voted for Falling Down :-P
Nevermind, I'm happy to see it still in there and it seems to be doing quite well. Makes up for the disappointement of Quite Free's early departure and SING, what was that all about, Why did it get slaughtered? |

Mmm... Nikki already said she'd have voted for The Cage. ;) The Cage is a better song. I look forward to justice when Falling Down gets murdered. :) |

The Cage got more votes. ;) Like i said, Nikki would have voted for The Cage so there are people that didn't vote that would have voted for both. I'm getting my chainsaw ready for Falling Down. :p |

Well I'm hoping you have an unexpected power-cut and then your chainsaw will be completely useless..... |

Do chainsaws run off mains electricity? ;) A power cut would only make it harder for you to protect it. :)
Edit: I suppose the chainsaw itself could have a power cut... Mmm... I'd just start hitting it with it then. lol |

The only challenger to Writing To Reach You is Before You Were Young. It's a great song but i think there is a large amount of "new" to it and i think it'll lose votes over time. You know, maybe if you do another Showdown in the future. :) Use an abacus next time. ;) lol
Before You Were Young is nowhere near of being as good as WTRY. There are probably 50 other songs or more that are closer to the top than BYWY ;oP
and GO FALLING DOWN, GO! The Cage is a lovely song, but Falling Down is amazing (even if it doesn't get much further hehe).
Edit: This is Juli from Ale's user, btw... I hope she doesn't notice this post, she hates it when I forget to log in myself and post under her name xD. |

Wow. I like "Falling Down"...it's a beautiful song, but I like "The Cage" much better and I'm actually surprised the voting was so close.
I wonder if this outpouring of love for "Falling Down" has to do with Travis performing it live recently on tour and Fran going out into the crowd.
Both songs are great, but yes, I'm with Benny. I'd pick "The Cage" to live.

You DO like to make out with trees...so it may be possible. ;) Ask Anne. She was trying to make out with Ode when she first got it.

Nikki, you're totally right. Falling Down is a good song but The Cage, in my little opinion ( and the Boardie Showdown's opinion ;) ) it is better. :) I also agree that i think it has a lot to do with them playing it live recently. If only that it's raised awareness of it. :)
Juli, my BYWY comment wasn't a personal thing. Just the way i see the Board voting. In my own opinion there are many Travis songs better than it. 3 or 4 on Ode for a start (Quite Free, Song To Self, Chinese Blues... maybe Last Words). But it is a great song. :) |

Falling Down's always been one of my favourite songs from Good Feeling. It's great if people have started rediscovering it :o)
Are there videos of the recent performances of Falling Down on YouTube? I'd love to see them!
Ben, I totally agree with you about Ode :o) |
