I guess I'm going with Disclosure now, but it's still a very good song, in my opinion.

Pride again, not that I hate the song or anything, it's just that having made a choice it's easier for some turns to not be forced to make another (difficult) one

Voices already eliminated? There must be some kind of trolling going on. It is a top 3 easily.

Yes it is. DTF is weird.

[jingle.boy]

Childhood.  Doesn't look good for Pride - a Top 5 for me.  The tradeoff between Ekwall and Clayton is pure brilliance.

[Train of Naught]

You're doing a pretty good job at cleaning up the bottom half of the album, DTF keep it up

though I must say I'm getting a bit tired of voting Disclosure for ages

[jakepriest]

Ages? It's been like 4 rounds at most.

[Elite]

Indeed

[jakepriest]

And yeah, I'm also gonna be pretty sad if Pride goes out this early. Another huge blow after you lot decided to vote out Voices. Hopefully atleast Confrontation and Betrayal will reach top 5.

[Crow]

betrayal should reach the top 1 but it won't

[Elite]

betrayal should reach the top 1

uhhhh

[Crow]

I've said it like a dozen times already that I think betrayal is the best thing arjen's ever done 

didn't predict it to even make the top 3 though

[jakepriest]

Betrayal is amazing. Definitely one of Arjen's most unique songs. I just love the mood and emotion it evokes.

[Train of Naught]

Ages? It's been like 4 rounds at most.

5. But it feels like forever since they're 2 day rounds and I believe there was a weekend break once. Also haven't been as active here lately so more than 50% of my activity has been related to the survivor which I guess makes it seem longer.

At least it can't be as bad as voting Trial of Tears for like 15 rounds... right?

I doubt it's gonna last much longer tbh. Might go next round even.
Atleast the DT survivor were one day rounds, I voted Amazing Flight for like a month straight. 

[Crow]

I'm getting disclosure after mystery goes out myself but I don't really care which goes first that much

[jingle.boy]

Tastes!  We're clearly not a match, as Betrayal will start getting my votes soon - lyrically and vocally it's great, but musically it's in the bottom 1/2 of the album - it's mostly just somber story-telling + a great keyboard solo.  It's cool that kind of style works for you/anyone.  But as a standalone song, not so intriguing.
