10. More of That Jazz
11. If You Can't Beat Them
12. Leaving Home Ain't Easy
13. Fun it

Regrettably, I have to kick More of That Jazz out as it won by a very significant margin and was probably a bit overdue anyway. Like people were saying last round, though, that riff is kick-ass. I would have preferred to see a couple more songs go down before this one.

The riff yes it's great like all the guitar parts and the drum beat very "Bonzo style" but the choirs are heavy and dissonant enough to bring anguish and weigh down the song excessively.[/QUOTE]
But I love that dissonance and anguish! It works really well with the slow-moving riff, and Roger's voice is perfect for it.

Whatever, it's done. Of the remaining songs, which one is the worst? Vote for your LEAST favorite song!

Too bad! I've always loved More Of That Jazz even way back when I first bought JAZZ in 78. I've always felt it wasn't too popular a song with many fans but Roger's voice and the groove he created for this tune is what makes it so cool. Great guitar parts too!

it's surprise for me that mustapha is here yet

I'm not. If you get Mustapha, you love it! It's hysterical! :-)

Didn't expect If You Can't Beat Em to go so soon, I've always liked that song. I thought it was a nice touch when they turned Freddie's high notes in the verses into two part harmonies with Roger in live versions where Freddie couldn't handle it.

Voted for In Only Seven Days, which seems to be the popular choice right now. If it gets kicked next, it'll then become very difficult for me - I love all the other remaining songs.

The day Mustapha goes, so do I.
Remember, that was the song , which, although not on the set-list, was chanted and begged for on live killers, just before Bo Rhap.
Lord Mercury at his most creative, left of field, best.
