Only one song is waving goodbye this week, as it got one vote about the others: the beautiful "Song Of Solomon". So, in the penultimate round, the following songs remain:
Rubberband Girl
And So Is Love
Moments Of Pleasure
Lily
Should be interesting to see which songs make it as it was so close last week. You have until Monday to vote off your two 'least favourites' - good luck!

I'm sticking to my choices from last week:
[glow=red,2,300]Rubberband Girl[/glow]
Like Al' said, it's quite bouncy for a Kate track, but it makes a good solid start to the album. I love the idea of rubberband ponytails too!
[shadow=red,left,300]Moments Of Pleausure[/shadow]
A beautiful song with a poignant ending. The idea of jumping into another moment is touching, especially with the tenderness with which Kate sings it.

Still recovering from the guilt  I feel over having to decide but this week's votes are: Moments of Pleasure: Like I said last week, I do adore this song, but sometimes it is too sad at the time I'm listening, so I skip it once in a while. Lily: Only really for the reason that I love "Rubberband Girl" and "And So Is Love" more. Those are two of my favorite Kate songs EVER, top 10 even! "Lily" is probably in the top 25! The use of the disturbing prayer quietly said in the opening, then blasting into the song! The combination of fire and Old Testament along with an old woman's guidance shows how Kate associates the close relationship between the Christian faith and old Celtic/Pagan beliefs. They are so close! How can you resist any song where Kate "growls" and "screams" like a banshee "This is my FAITH! (my faith... my faith)"? Perhaps she is explaining something she has discovered in her search for guidance here?  |

And So Is Love Lily I can't really have good reasons because I know very little about these songs because as you all probably know I hardly ever listen to any tracks from TRS and have never really looked into the lyrics as I have with many other Kate songs. I just guess I'd rather listen to the other too if I had to pick. Hey but if it's any conselation, if I was abroad for example and only had these two Kate songs to listen too, I'd listen, hehe. Gutted 'Song of Solomon' has had the boot, as I really like this song... really, hehe  |

"Lily" and "And So Is Love". For the same reasons I stated in previous posts. |

*Rubberband Girl*
*Lily*
This is always a difficult game to play when you love all of Kate's work! Kate's impression of a rubber band stretching and contracting always sends shivers down my spine just like when she is a donkey at the end of Get Out of My House. That is what I love about her, never afraid to be unusual.
Lily draws you in to Kate's magical mystery world and is expressed in a way only Kate can.

The idea of jumping into another moment is touching, especially with the tenderness with which Kate sings it. For once we agree Sto. ;D I love both of these songs. Especially the nostalgic atmosphere created by "MOP"- the introspective dialogue and especially the imagery. The video enhances these elements as well. I like the lyrics to "Rubberband Girl" better than the song itself. As I've said, it seems a bit too bouncy in contrast to the other tracks from "TRS" My vote was late again, sorry.  But it looks like I couldn't save "Lily" anyway. How about some help here, Sven . I guess that would be fair, right, Zan?  |
