GROUP B
I must play it in a strategic way...
..."scream of anger", which IMO is not a "real" Europe song...
   Sorry mate !  And for all the other SOA fans : sincere apologizes !  |

Praise You Scream of anger Heart of stone Firebox This is my selection. For sure Heart Of Stone is a milestone to be saved! Then the new entry Praise You, not only to raise the spirit of Eva Tomorrow, but also because it's getting carved inside me some more every day! Today while driving the car, I was raising my arm up to underline some passages in the song with the result that the other car drivers on the street were surely asking themselves wtf I was doing...  |

GROUP B
yes, I wanted so strongly to reach them and attend one of their show that I finally succeeded in overcoming my horrible claustrophobia, this dreadful feeling that kept me buried alive !
I'm OK now. They have been literally my getaway plan  .
So I take the opportunity for a personal message here :
Thank you so much EUROPE for being what you are ! 
I am so happy to hear about your final results guesswho?, and surely these guys have saved the life of many people without even knowing about it... Your experience is emblematic of what music can do! And I wish you that the pleasant feeling to have overcome your demons and be finally free now will always make you feel blessed and happy!  The power of music is tremendous! And I know it myself... Now even my boss is advising the other employees who may be experiencing any kind of bad mood and low spirit, by saying "d'you see Michaela? She goes at concerts! You should go too!" All people at the company I work for, will be attending a EUROPE's show, the sooner or later!  |

After long meditation here's my choice:
Aphasia
Heart of stone
Gonna get ready
California 405
These four songs are incredible. I could spend a whole day playing just them again and again without getting tired.
The battle is at its best, keep on voting!

A bullet on the battlefield #20: As you’ve seen Got to have faith made it to the final 32 gathering 9 votes. But in the old battle things went quite differently: it was kicked out from a group that featured, as winning songs The final countdown (12 votes), Devil sings the blues (9), In my time (8) and New love in town (8). Back then it gathered only four votes (even less than Broken wings that got 7 votes). It’s for moments like this, I think, that it was worth to make a new battle. A bullet on the battlefield #21: Prisoners in Paradise is in the limbo at the moment, waiting to know if it will join to the fantastic 32 or not. Wondering if it made it in the old battle? Well, the answer is no  . The only song from that album that made it back then was Girl from Lebanon. Will it have more luck this time? I’m very curious too find it out. A bullet on the battlefield #22: This is especially for guesswho? and the other fans that are sad for the "loss" of The getaway plan (me included). Wondering how it went in the old battle? Well, it’s a nice story. It was among the four songs saved after Phase one so it made it, in extremis, to the final 64. Then, in its Group of the next phase, it ended up in a tie-break against Riches to rags. At that time we used to ask to a jury to break that tie. Stein gave its vote to Riches to rags, and Eva Tomorrow too. The third member of the jury was, guess who? Right: guesswho?  . The decision had been already taken but she voted for The getaway plan. She was glad anyway that Riches to rags had gone further. And that’s how Riches to rags got to the final 32 in the old battle. Funny enough, Riches to rags, in the current battle, did not even make it to the final 64  ! A bullet on the battlefield #23: EuropeMagnum was surprised that The second day is not among the final 64. Well, sometimes I also ask myself how it was possible but then I go back to see the terrible Group D ( Memories, Dreamer, Rock the night, Settle for love, Hero, Love is not the enemy, Gonna get ready... just to name a few) and it makes sense again. BTW it wasn't even the first excluded (those were Danger on the track and 'til my heart beats down your door) and it got the same votes of Lights and Shadows (6). Finally another song from War of Kings was qualified from that Group: Rainbow Bridge (it got 9 votes). To sum up it ended up in a difficult group. Maybe things could be different in a future battle but remeber: life is not fair and the battle even less
