Sorry to have kept waiting! I worked for two days almost "non-stop" and I went to music festival on Friday. I'm here now. Ent, I don't know if my vote can still count but I give it. I have to pick between these songs : Boyazont The King Will Return Children Of This Time and it was not easier for me, Boyazont is my first choice, it's a real Jonta's feature. But now between The King and Children... OK my second choice is Children Of The Time. There are Boyazont and Chidren Of This Time Ent, once again I'm sorry fot being late and without further ado I give my vote for Wings Of Tomorrow. My selection is : Stormwind Open Your Heart Aphasia Wings Of Tomorrow Wasted Time Dreamer It's ok, dear. Thanks for finding the time to vote on WOT. Actually the tie on the "Europe" album was already solved with the extra vote from "europemagnum" but your solution leads to the same result so I would call this a happy ending. gemaim: The worst song? That's a good idea, we could try (but it's too easy: my vote goes to The final countdown 2000!  ) guesswho?: I still miss your last two spots on the Wings of tomorrow album. Did you come to a decision?  |

guesswho?: I still miss your last two spots on the Wings of tomorrow album. Did you come to a decision? Yes, very hard choice this time, because only "Scream of anger" I don't like... So, let's try this difficult and painful exercise. -Dance the night away -Lyin eyes -Wings of tomorrow -Aphasia -Dreamer -Waisted time. (But missing Stormwind and Open your eyes, already !  ) The problem with all EUROPE songs, is that my choice can change with the day... Some days I enjoy this one, and another day, I've changed my mind, and I like better that one... it depends with the mood in fact. I suppose many of you feel the same ? Europe songs are nearly all goods, but are corresponding to different situations in life. That's what makes this band so interesting, in a way... Ooops ! Sorry ent ! I nearly forgot it  ...      Updated now... Still in time, I hope ?  |

here I am....my pc not very collaborative tonight...
First of all: Michaela, thank you!
I quote every single word you wrote about "Open your heart". You gave words to my feelings better than I could (English is not among my abilities.....).
and now: the painful choice.
Scream of anger (the song of my adolescence ever)
Open Your Heart (need a reason?)
Wings Of Tomorrow (hope is - and keep you - forever young)
Wasted Time (the soundtrack of my lost dreams)
Dreamer (I do love it. It seems Joey and me have something in common ... and I'm not referring to the ability to lose the lines every now and then;) )
Lyin eyes (anger and desperate love: i love it, so true lines)
so...I have to drop "Dance the night away" and "Storwind".....so sorry:(

And, like other forum members said: thank you for the game. It's a marvellous chance to pick up feelings and memories and think about what and why Europe songs move us so deeply... bye:) |

The time for voting session on Wings of Tomorrow has expired. Maybe I made a mistake in changing the expiration time with respect to the first session. Maybe this has confused some users, sorry. (I’ll consider the votes of Guesswho and Rosa even if they were a bit late, it's always worthwhile waiting for the girls ) Thanks everyone for voting! And now the results! This is the situation: 1. Open your heart: 11 votes 2. Stormwind: 9 votes 3. Aphasia: 9 votes 4. Wings of tomorrow: 9 votes 5. Dreamer: 9 votes 6. Scream of Anger: 8 votes 7. Wasted time: 8 votes 8. Treated bad again: 3 votes 9. Dance the night away: 3 votes 10. Lyin’ eyes: 3 votes The first five songs pass on phase 3  . Then we have two songs fighting for the last available spot: Scream of anger and Wasted Time. To break the tie I need again the help of a jury. So Stein, Mark-David and Europemagnum, could you be so kind to indicate your favorite one between these two tracks? Thank you very much! (to be fair Michaela and Rosa also voted for both the songs but I chose the three men because incidentally they expressed the very same vote. So for this time you're safe Michaela and Rosa, but you won't be so lucky in future!). Give me one minute to say a proper goodbye to a personal favorite of mine: Treated bad again  And now let’s take a walk in the myth. It’s 1986 and the world is hit by one of the greatest albums of the century: The final countdown (1986). All about this album has been said and written so I won’t waste more words. You already know the tracklist but just for the records, here’s the mantra: 1. The final countdown 2. Rock the night 3. Carrie 4. Danger on the track 5. Ninja 6. Cherokee 7. Time has come 8. Heart of stone 9. On the loose 10. Love chaser The rules, quickly: 1. pick your favorite six from TFC 2. this session will close on Tuesday 25/06 at 22:00 (please try to be in time, it just makes things easier!  ) 3. any registered user can vote (even if they haven’t voted before) and join the discussion 4. the first time you vote you receive an original and certified warm welcome in the thread TM, (now this is what I call an opportunity!) 5. relax, listen to some good music and have fun! |

My vote for the WOT tiebreaker: Wasted Time.
The Final Countdown... Once again, a tough choice! And once again, it was a tough choice for the final spot: "Heart of Stone" or "On the Loose"? But in the end I decided to go for...
1. The Final Countdown
2. Rock the Night
3. Danger on the Track
4. Ninja
5. Heart of Stone
6. Love Chaser

thanx ent - I'm glad i could push Boyazont a little bit...  WASTED TIME is a tiebreaker???   NO! it's a WINNER! (although SCREAM OF ANGER doesn't deserve to be kicked out... ) 3rd album: 1. Final Countdown 2. Love Chaser 3. Cherokee 4. Heart of Stone 5. Ninja 6. On the Loose how could I exclude Carrie & Rock the night? because we can! |

If I had to choose the album of my life would be "The Final countdown", ... This album appeared in the most beautiful time of my life , when I was teenager, was the door to be interested in music in general, I learned every of the songs, and didn't know English, (practically as now  ) I fell in love with "Carrie" I was thrilled with "The Final Countdown" and I remember how I expressed all that energy that we have in those years singing and jumping with "Rock the Night", unforgettable moments spent with these songs (I'll stop, I'm getting sad ...  ) 1. The Final Countdown 2. Rock the Night 3. Cherokee 4. Heart of Stone 5. Ninja 6. On the Loose And about "Carrie" ..., is a lovely song ... but I think I've heard this song too many times in my life  I really hope that pass this cut "Ninja" is a very great song, I love it. |
