and how many rounds have you guys said that? lol
-
vote off Wanted.

Even though i have voted for Paradise every round without fail, I have to give the song credit. Compared to other "better" songs from the past that didn't make BnN, Paradise survived from the first demo tape, to Rinse, to BnN. The only other songs that did that are Twilight, Ordinary Day, and Wanted. It must hold something really special to Vanessa to keep the song going for all this time instead of her bringing other songs from the demo and Rinse (like All I Ask, which is much much better than Paradise).

Yeah... I was thinking the same thing! It must mean something special to her! She never sings it in concert too... which for a lot of artists means that it might be too emotional to her to sing. Yeah, it may also mean that she doesnt want to sing it in concert because she doesn't like the song... but why would she keep it around so long? It is a very emotional song! And I think to be able to write about something that deeply it must be personal to her! I know that song helped save my life! It really is an amazing song...

Pst. You honestly think Vanessa had ANY say in what songs did and did not make the album?

maybe, maybe not. I still don't think it's the best song.
I would've loved Burden on BnN
I don't think so. It doesn't fit the tone of BnN. She's develope so much as an artist and given the arrangements of the tracks on BnN Burden would have been out of place

I think she atleast had some... and if her record people wanted to keep it around that long, that also means it's a good song. Paradise helped me and I know it also helped other people too. Thank God she released it... if not i may not of been here right now. I was seriously so bad off... and that song spoke to me and was the first thing that made me realise i needed help. The doctor told me i was going to be hospatalized if i countinued what i was doing. I guess maybe you have to have been in the state that she talks about in the song to appreciate it, or atleast be able to think deep enough.
-
well by that theory wanted is just as special...so keep it!
the last three survivors are in fact my favorite songs...but paradise is my least favorite of the three. If its between sway and wanted next....I really dont know what to choose :? :cry: :?
-
Things are not looking good for paradise.

LOL.
I didn't know there was such a thing as depression elitism. You learn something new everyday......

did i say that? i dont think so... i just meant that sometimes people who have gone through something are the only ones who understand what it feels like. if i were to hear "paradise" before i was ever depressed, it wouldnt mean anything to me! i could relate to every word in that song tho... seriously! depression is something that plays with your mind. i thought thoughts that i would never dream of thinking. i almost lost the battle until i heard this song.... thats why i can relate to it and why it means SO much to me! do not try to shine a humerous light on depression. ok?

No one ever says "I'm an elitist"... but the things people say clearly show their bias. So naturally, you never said "I'm a depression elitist".... but you did basically say "if you've never been depressed you don't understand", which is the definition of elitism.
My comment was just poking fun at your post, and it wasn't intended to be an attack.... But trust me, you don't want this to become a serious discussion. That's no fun and would just lead to resentment. You're better off just ignoring my jokes if you don't like them.
And BTW, don't try and tell me what I may or may not "shine a humorous light" on. You can ASK me not to make jokes. And I may (or may not) agree. But when you TELL me, it makes me want to do it more just to prove a point.

just because jason isn't here andrew don't start introspectical battles with poor little holly -- she is expressing her emotions leave her be -- xoxo
btw - paradise rocks down with wanted!!!

Sway's gonna win, Sway's gonna win, Sway's gonna wiiiiiin

Elite means when you think you’re better than someone… and I in no way implied that! It’s just a fact of life I guess… if you go through something and experience something than you have a better grasp of what it feels like! I didn’t mean anything other than that at all… There are many many things I have not experienced that I wouldn’t understand as well as someone who has… Same thing here, I went through depression, it had a major effect on my life, I wanted to die. So exuse me if I take it seriously! If you have the right to say something… I have the right to say something back, right? I think I do. I’m not the one to ignore things that bother me… I’ve done that too many times in the past.
Thank you Steph!!
And I miss Jason too... he had a way of arguing, but not being rude. He rocks.

There is a thing called respect and a thing called honor, the people on this planet with those two things instinctively prevent themselves from making jokes when it is known it'll upset someone else. When someone still jokes under those circumstances, it's proving a point alright, it's proving they're a fool; and if anyone is wishing to prove that point to us all, then be my guest.

You didn't know Jason very well, did you? He's my boy... but he has the worst temper I've ever seen in action..... he's just never said anything that bothered YOU.

What are you, 14? Do I need to spell this out for you?
Respect is reserved for people who earn it. Honor is a concept invented by the weak to keep from being preyed on by the strong.
Strong people don't like to be bossed around, and when you tell a strong person what to do, they have an immediate desire to do exactly the opposite... not because they actually want to do the action... but because they want to send a big "f u" to the person trying to boss them around.
Hence, original sin and why the God of the old testement is an asshole.

i didn't but what i did know of him he was nice... he was always very nice to me and i judge people on what i see. i did see a couple of his arguments and from what i saw he was pretty civil.

ok, you have a different thoery of respect. when i'm talking about something i could have died from and that about ruined my life. making a joke is not respectful. so yeah, i got mad. i think all people deserve respect, unless they have done something really wrong. have i done something that wrong?
and i think you're concept of "strong" is wrong. people that attack other people like that feel threatened... otherwise why would they have a reason to be so rude? when people tell me not to do something because it bothers them... i listen. i dont get all mad. i think "strong" could be when you're able to control your feeling in a way that is more kind, not just let them explode.
-
i love you all, miss you all
but i have to vote off paradise..sorry!!
i hate this whole survivor idea with a passion, personally i cant believe i'm voting, but the first time i heard wanted i thought it was amazing and impossible and it was by far my fav. song on the CD, it has this deep emotion in it and i love it, and i sat down for 2 hours and learned it by ear, which is one of my biggest accomplishments, so i have to support this song! i love "wanted"
PARADISEEEEEEEEE voted off by me
-
melly my :heart:
i know.. i feel bad voting off any of them, cuz they're all so great, but its just a game... and paradise in my mind deserves to be gone too. Wanted is one of my favorites... along with RINSE and Twilight... grrrr!
-
WE WANT WANTED! WE WANT WANTED! (to win =P)
And indeed I voted once upon a year gone by . . .
-
:(
ive decided... along with other ppl that for the rest of this survivor thingy i wont be voting lol... cuz i know im gonna get myself worked up about it and its stupid. haha
YES DAMN YOUUUUU ALL FOR VOTING OFF MY FAV SONG! grrrrr.... im going with paradise as well. sorry peeps, but you asked for it! :wink:
inconsistent, much?
-
*ahem* there is a tie. We will have a two-day long poll that has JUST Wanted and Paradise.

I miss jason :cry:
me too - have you talked to him - i tried calling didnt work :cry:

And I miss Jason too... he had a way of arguing, but not being rude. He rocks.

NUH UH!!! We all know i <3 Jason, but have you seen some of our arguments on his LJ? Those weren't civil!
And btw, if i said Las Ketchup helped me get through a 'bad patch' in my life- would you all vote for it? NOOOO (i bloody well hope not!)

I voted Paradise.

No one deserves more than the bare minimum of respect till they earn it. Meaning, I wont spit on you if I don't know you, but if you say something I don't like, I'm gonna call you out. If a person demonstrates themselves enough to me, i give them the benefit of the doubt when they say something stupid. I assume there was a reason for it. I shrug and move on.
You didn't do anything WRONG, you just said something I found to be fairly silly, so I called you out. Period.
Strong means you have power. You have power over something when you have the ability to destroy it. That is the definition of power.
My concept of Strong is, in fact, exactly correct. Weak people who live in a happy little bubble provided for them by strong people don't like to acknowledge what real strength is, because sometimes it's not pretty. But that doesn't change the reality of it.
People who LISTEN when confronted end up in middle management, people who attack when confronted end up CEO's.
