 Topic: Best VDGG ballad
Posted: May 11 2015 at 12:37 |
Man-Erg is one of my fave VDGG songs of all time...shoot it could be one of my fave songs of all time period, but I don't really consider it a "ballad" so I went with "House with no Door"

World Record's Wondering is sorely missing among those listed ("Wait!").

Tie between Lost and House with no door . Voted for Lost (though I wouldn't call it a "ballad")

As ballads go, House With No Door, but probably Man-Erg on the whole. Nice poll

Man-erg is my favourite song from the list but it is neither gentle nor a ballad. House With No Door is my second favourite on the list and it is a gentle ballad so it gets my vote.

Man-Erg, although 'gentle' is not a word I'd use to describe it!

Man-Erg and Undercover Man are about tied, but gave it to the latter because it needs some help.

Man-Erg for me. Though shouldn't Refugees be here too? I still would have voted for Man-Erg anyway.

The Undercover Man, one of the most emotional songs of all time. Excellent lyrics

Another loose interpretation of ballad.
Lost.
