God Willing !

It just isn't a song folks ! It works really well as an intro (live and for the album if it had been the intro there) but it isn't a proper song and so my choice here.

God willing.

Frankly, considering how senseless some of you seem to be about this "song ", I fear this may winn The Weakest Link.

God Willing is benign but it's time has come.

On the God Willing debate, I feel that since it's actually included in the competition, it should compete on its own merits. Here length really isn't much of an issue, but enjoyment of the track. I have always found it enjoyable.

There is however a valid argument, that given its nature, it shouldn't even have been part of the competition. A bit too late for that, though. Anyway, I'm sure it will be voted off very soon.

My vote: God Willing - if just for the sake of getting rid of it.

There is nothing bad about God Willing really. REM included something similar on Automatic For The People. Theres no real need for it to be there but it's not unpleasant listening.

OK, let's vote off "God willing" so there are only real songs left!

I don't mind the track at all, but it's just a brief interlude. What if it were 3 minutes long, would you hate it even more or would you like it?

Frequency wrote:Twenieth Century. Only track I regularly skip on the album without fail. Though, it has a rather nice outro, not enough to save it from dullsville.
My words exactly.
"Unprofessional? Us? Sir. Might I with due respect remind you that Mister Vandemar and myself burned down the City of Troy? We brought the Black Plague to Flanders. We have assassinated a dozen kings, five popes, half a hundred heroes and two accredited gods. Our last commission before this was the torturing to death of an entire monastery in sixteenth century Tuscany. We are utterly professional." - Mr Croup
