"Weirdo" is the weakest '80s album track for me and I've always really liked "Close Range". Go figure. :shrug:

Neither are favourites of mine. Both album fillers IMO.

Close Range has a snappier chorus and it sometimes springs to mind when you think that someone should pull themselves together, so it's hurt.

Whichever one wins this will be out next round, probably.

Weirdo.. Had to look Close Range up in the Discography to remind me of how it went... :embarassed: Weirdo is nice and jolly and bouncy and all that, but neither is really that strong in my opinion...

Weirdo is the weakest track on Brotherhood for me, so I voted for Close Range.

Weirdo. Personally surprised this is so close.

Weirdo has a great vibe and energy, while Close Range seems to have been wrung through a machine to drain it of passion or warmth. Weirdo is a class summer driving tune.

Tis weirdo!

Can't believe that Weirdo is ahead of Close range!!! IMO its a no-brainer - Weirdo is filler compaired to most NO tracks, Close range is a clasic (well, ok, its very good).
