it's the only decent song on backspacer. by not voting for it you're essentially voting for one of the others which makes you part of the problem.
I'm the problem? Hey I didn't write and record Backspacer, pal!
I really don't like Force of Nature, but I'm also loosing track of which Backspacer songs are left. We still have Johnny Guitar, right?

Going with Rival.
I'd want to get the Backspacer song out of the way, but Force of Nature is so boring. I think the best way to knock Backspacer out would have been The End, but that's out.

I would take The Fixer over Force of Nature.
(But hopefully it doesn't come to that)

I would settle for Speed of Sound if it allowed us to have Cropduster in the 4 spot.
And if we can use Ed's solo demo version, then even better!

what does Force of Nature sound like - someone describe it to me
I know what all these other songs sound like
but that one doesn't ring any bells
i gave backspacer one quick listen when it came out and never went back (it is on backspacer, right?)
i don't want an actual listening of the song first-hand to bias this decision
i want to base it on RM feedback
feel free to use images and symbols to describe it, not just words

Seeing all the other songs up for track 4, I will likely not vote for "Johnny Guitar," but it is one of the few Backspacer songs I still enjoy listening to. I like its energy, its swagger, the syncopation in the vocals, and how weird it is to hear Ed sing about pussy

should we all just agree on dance for track 3 and not even have jorge open the thread?

It has to be Force of Nature. I really can't go any other direction on this one, both for strategy and because it somehow, every-so-slightly, transcends its place in that album.

The argument for "Force of Nature" is sound. I like "The Fixer," but people won't vote for that. "Johnny Guitar" is the only other Backspacer song that feels like an acceptable choice for this. If things go awry we could easily be stuck with a Backspacer track that will torpedo this, which can nary be afforded after the selection of "Yellow Moon" in the prior round.
