First, Farewell Fire was knocked out in the first round.

Second, Tears from the Compound Eye gets the boot on the third.

Third, Dayvan Cowboy on the fifth.

And now, Chromakey Dreamcoat is in second place.



You are all nuts.

Haha, I was honestly surprised to see Tears and Oscar get voted out so quickly, always considered those fan favorites. Still, of all the polls this one seems to bear the hardest choices for me, which only confirms that TCH is my favorite BoC album, maybe my favorite album of all time even.

I knew the majority of BoC fans had largely shit taste, but eliminating Constants Are Changing? Really?

This poll is making me think Im listening to this album wrong :P My favourite track goes out first round while Peacock Tail, the track I've been voting for since the beginning, looks like it might just win!

Honestly one of my least favourite tracks by boards :? Not a fan of the percussion, and it really just feels like the track goes nowhere. Ofcourse plenty of BoC tracks have grown on me massively overtime, so hopefully this is one of them.

Haha I love Peacock Tail! My favourite of their more downtempo tracks.

It's really nice seeing differences in opinion honestly, I hope I also have your feelings towards this track one day :P

Icarus is probably my least favourite on the entire record. It's great, but nowhere near as good as Constants or Peacock tail or Oscar

Yes. It's pointless to do it any other way. If a revote did bring a more decisive result, it would just prolong the inevitability that these 3 tracks will be voted out. It's very clear which the 2 most popular tracks are.

I always liked Constants, but it took something like 5 years before it really clicked; now I consider it one of the highlights. Chromakey and Dayvan were more like instant 'clicks' and my former favorites, yet I nowadays I tend to skip them as I grown bored of them, while Constants just keep growing. Shows how difficult this kind of thing is

I feel like Chromakey is one of the more 'typical' BoC tracks on the album, which explains why I also found it the most accessible track on first listen of the album. TCH was a real change of pace for BoC in my eyes, so it took me quite a while longer to fully 'get' the other tracks on the album.
