Stratovarius Community

If you are interested in voting, post a follow-up reply to this message (in this thread) with your ideal Stratovarius setlist.

Use this format:

* black Diamond
* the abyss of your eyes
* why are we here
* why are we here


That is, put the song titles of the list in this topic only (Talk in English -> Official Song Poll/topic 6214)

Remember:

separate lines

with a star (*) sign in front

1) You can only vote once, your first post in the thread will be the one that counts.

2) You can only vote for 18 songs.

3) Spelling is important. CaPiTalIzAtIon, whitespace and punctuation is NoT.

4) You can edit your post as many times as you want and it will affect your vote (of course.)

5) You can only vote if you're registered here, because you can only post if you're registered here.

6) If you want to make a comment on the same line use a '#' sign like this:

* ride like the wind # see! anything i write after the '#' doesn't affect the vote

* Remember, anything with a star in front of it will count as a vote!

No matter where in the post it is.

* WhY ArE wE HErE?

The vote result is summarised automatically, here:

http://www.stratovarius.com/forum/songpoll.pl

If someone please could inform the Finnish side I would be grateful.

My heart goes out to Cristiane who typed in all those song titles. Thanks!

If you need ideas for song titles you could look in those topics! You are free to vote there as well of course, but for the set list I think we are likely to pay more attention to this poll topic because it's all "in the same place" and you can mix songs from different albums for your ideal set list. There is a limitation in PHPBB when it comes to a poll which potentially has like a 100 choices.

EDIT:

* hooded strangers #
* a mote in god's eye # from the blockbuster "fjäderlösa tvåfotingar" album
* castrate with a rusty skate # from "BAKTERIA / defecate, suffocate, mutilate, masturbate!"
* ode to a tractor # from "RAF"
* the last viking
* tea for one and a half # from "Heavy Machinery"
* the key to the universe # from tolkki's "hymn to life"
* beauty has come # from TK's record

And besides if the topic hadn't been unlocked, you'd have to play "Remember, anything with a star in front of it will count as a vote!" song And 3 votes for Why Are We Here ?, eh. Seems you enjoy playing this one.
