Polling is closed. **Thanks** to the Dopers who responded. Honorable mentions this week go to _grendel72_; who pointed out “Life’s Too Good” exists as neither a Sugarcubes album track nor single. Lost virginity greetings and salutations go to _bibliophile & Treviathan_ who decided to use the Black Crowes poll as their 1st time “rock the vote” opportunity. Side note to _WSLer_: As per your AC/DC poll request in both last week’s poll and e-mail; there will be a _supplemental_ **AC/DC** poll in Café Society that I will post (and link back to this) week’s poll and results. **Issue 1: Venus Fly Trap** New “high search count” words secretly e-mailed to me by an _anonymous_ moderator who’s privy to classified message board information: BOX BUSH CHERRY COOZE CUNNY HOLE HONEYPOT LOVE BUTTON MUFF PUSSY QUIM SLIT SNATCH SQUEEZEBOX TWAT[sub]_Warning: Do Not highlight this cheap, tawdry search gimmick used by the pay sites_[/sub] **Issue 2: Increase the Hit Count** The Voters, Past & Present…(especially those who do vanity searches): Voting In 7 Polls: astorian.

Okay… this is another tough one. Lots of excellent tracks won’t make the cut. #6 “Wheels of Confusion” #5 “Sabbath, Bloody Sabbath” #4 “Neon Knights” #3 “Fairies Wear Boots” #2 “Hole in the Sky” #1 “War Pigs” I regret that I couldn’t include “The Wizard,” “Behind the Wall of Sleep,” “Children of the Grave,” “N.I.B.”, “Snowblind,” “Never Say Die,” and “The Mob Rules,” among others. (I liked the Ronnie James Dio era more than most Sabbath fans did.) ---

I guess I am going to have to go with Sabbath’s “hits” #6 “Sabbath, Bloody Sabbath” #5 “Sweet Leaf” #4 “War Pigs” #3 “Iron Man” #2 “Paranoid” #1 I don’t know the title. I haven’t heard the song all that many times, the local ‘Real Rock Radio’ station rarely plays it. The refrain goes something like _Your love for me has just got to be real- before you know the way I’m going to feel, I’m going to feel, duh, duh, duh, dunt, duh, duh, duh, ,dunt, duh, duh, duh, ,dunt, OH YEAH!_ ---

The greatest hard rock/metal band of all-time bar none, and I am supposed to pick just 6 tracks? Well here goes, and with all due respect, Paranoid and Iron Man and War Pigs do not belong in any top 6 lists. 6\> Killing Yourself To Live 5\> Symptom of the Universe 4\> Into the Void 3\> Hand of Doom 2\> Children of the Grave 1\> Electric Funeral ---

This is not a test: A poster on your boards, against the wishes of moderators, federal, state, and local authorities, has developed this bump to inform you of an emergency. As it currently stands: Black Sabbath’s “Paranoid” is about to win first place. An unnamed individual with links to underground pirate radio does not want that to happen. Nor does he want to see Ironman or War Pigs win either. He has nothing against these songs, he just feels there are much better selections that deserve a higher standing. Truth be told, he’d even rather see A Bit Of Finger / Sleeping Village, All Moving Parts (Stand Still), Back Street Kids, Cornucopia, Disturbing The Priest, Don’t Start (Too Late), Electric Funeral, Hole In The Sky, Killing Yourself To Live, Looking For Today, Saint Vitus’ Dance, Shock Wave, Snowblind, Solitude, Supernaut, Symptom Of The Universe, The Mob Rules, The Sign Of The Southern Cross, The Thrill Of It All, The Wizard, The Writ, Tomorrow’s Dream, Trashed, Voodoo, Wasp / Behind The Wall Of Sleep, Wheels Of Confusion-The Straightner or even Who Are You ? win _instead of_ the **3 staples the AOR PD’s** continually ram down you throats. Please contemplate before you vote. Relax, listen to some [Black Sabbath in Latin](http://www.sabbatum.com/sound) as recently linked in [**Johnny Angel’s** Cafe Society Thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=106863). Had this been a more serious emergency, you would have been instructed where to tune in your area for official news, information, or instructions. We now return you to your regularly scheduled thread. Side Note: The answer to _Dragon Phoenix’s & HenrySpencer’s_ request is **Yes** (if we make it to the C’s). The tentative sequence for that section of the alphabet will be: …The Clash, Joe Cocker, Leonard Cohen (maybe), Collective Soul, Concrete Blond, Ry Cooder (maybe), Sam Cooke, **Alice Cooper** Elvis Costello, Cowboy Junkies, Cracker… ---

1. Saint Vitus Dance 2. Zero the Hero 3. Juniors Eyes 4. Wheels Of Confusion-The Straightner 5. Warning 6.
