Poll question: Best Song With A Prime Number Higher Than 10
Yes, I'm trying to compete for the Most Random Poll Question Award, at least for this morning. There's some tough competition here, though.

16. Not sure the judge can count that one...
A phone number isn't really eight million, 675 thousand, three hundred and nine. It is more like seven individual digits in sequence, so each number would have to be taken separately. 7, 5 and 3 are all prime numbers, but less than 10.

Plus, if you counted it as 8,675,309, you'd still have to present proof its a prime number, and that could take a while.

3. No 25 or 6 to 4?
Not that I would have voted for it, still it's popular.

SD got my vote, of course. :)

15. Tough call, this
I would definately vote for the first three, but I had to go with "17 Seconds" by the Cure. Why? Well, back in the day (mid-80s, to be exact), I played guitar in a pseudo-Goth band who specialized in Cure and Bauhaus covers, and this was one of my favorites, mainly because it was only two chords, and I could sleep through most of it.

Now that I think about it, I think my current band has actually played this one a few times, too. However we don't dress up like the Cure anymore (as the Ben Folds song would say).
