Now that the Guilt Machine Album Survivor is over, and the second Star One Album Survivor is in progress, we fill the hole with Lost in the New Real Survivor! This is Arjen's second solo album (the first is Pools of Sorrow, Waves of Joy which isn't included in this whole Survivor because it's not that popular and well-known), and it has some fine tunes along with some weaker ones. Now it's up to you to determine which tunes are indeed fine, and which aren't to your tastes and are to be eliminated. Let's begin with Round 1!

The deadline for this round is 48 hours.

Before we even begin, I would like to say that Parama's vote will be obviously the wrong one.

When I'm a Hundred Sixty-Four

i'm sorry that arjen just utterly, horrendously botched the point he was trying to make more than usual with PPP & that the music itself is generic and forgettable by arjen's standards making it a song of no value

So it's the lyrics you don't like?


Love this album. My vote goes to Where Pigs Fly.

My vote goes to Where Pigs Fly.

Sure, I can go with that.

So it's the lyrics you don't like?

The lyrics are pretty consistently awful across the entire album and the music is mostly mediocre to just decent so

As someone who barely cares about lyrics they have to be really bad to get me to care enough to dislike them

[Kwyjibo]

Flying pigs is a valid choice

And for the record: I think this is a really great album, surprisingly so because it's only Arjen singing but he made it work imo. And it's more laid back than most of his other work.
