Cool list, confusing formatting. Also didn’t Os Mutantes’ self-titled come out in 1968?

StevieFan13

That’s an amazing number one pick Lagunin! I also think it’s spelled as “Running” with a “g.”

Tagging people like this is extremely uncool Wisnu

I’ve explained the purpose and actual legitimacy of the Hall before. I’m done. You like it or you don’t, but I’m happy with this class at least. And I enjoy following it.

I'm increasingly confused about the Musical Influence category, which in the past used to honor pre-rock artists or otherwise people who can't be realistically called rock, but now it contains John Mayall, who is a rocker from the rock era; like Link Wray previously. Seems bizarre that they can't f...

I am over the MOON for Tribe! What a good slate of inductees!

StevieFan13

Also panam - just taking a look at your list, I can assure you you won't be the only one voting for "Gruppa Krovi"!

StevieFan13

Uncharacteristically what, I dunno, but 1983 is a 10. Blunt yet romantic. Bears in love!

StevieFan13

What?? Man, I’m going to do my best to make sure this doesn’t get a chance to make the next edition of Biggest Fan, because I’ve loved this version since I was a kid and it’s an easy 10.

I'm now starting to look for the most notable snubs by letter, and the Beach Boys for B and Johnny Cash for C immediately leap out (the latter in particular since Johnny Ca$h, clearly inspired by him at least in name, show up for J).

StevieFan13

Nearing the end - now updated through the letter X, which has a surprisingly substantial amount of artists (although no X Japan or Xzibit...or Xandra, of "Colorado" fame, but technically she went by Sandra for most of her career).

Statesboro Blues is a 9

Did I already vote for We Don't Need Another Hero? If I didn't, it's an 8. If I did, my grade is now an 8, regardless of what it was before.

And thank you, Live in Phoenix, for making sure the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles theme song is stuck in my head for the rest of the night. Thank goodness it's a new day, and that song's out of your head. The parts that stick with me the most are the harmony bits ("They're heroes in a half-shel...

we shouldn't have to vet the politics of everyone coming into this forum That’s to say they even agree with the dictator’s politics. For that matter, though, who knows what quality of information they're even allowed near. Also, even in a democracy, how much would you like to personally answer for ...

THIS close to having two different versions of "Behind Blue Eyes" at #1 on two different people's lists (Henry has the Who's original at #2 on his list), which would be the first time I can recall something like that happening. I could maybe see it happening with the most famous versions o...

StevieFan13

I gotta admit, Wisnu: I’m a fan of that list. Turns out there’s a bigger poptimist than me on this forum after all! (Also, that Mental as Anything song is "The Nips Are Getting Bigger.") EDIT: Also, are you sure you mean Fats Domino for "Praise You" and not Fatboy Slim? Not that ...

[stuff] Heh, I've been chit-chatting with people from China or Russia in other communities elsewhere on the Internet. They're normal people like you and me as long as we don't mention politics, and we never really found any reason to do so over there. Just stick to music-related topics and that's f...

StevieFan13

I'm all for diversity in opinions and letting people from all over have their say in music stuff, so in that sense having forumers from China is great...on the other hand, freedom of speech isn't the Chinese government's favorite thing, last I heard. Obviously, we shouldn't have to vet the politics ...

StevieFan13

Don't know if that'll be me who runs that poll, but I'm a firm believer in the independence of Tibet, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Macau and the end of the detention of the Uyghur people, so that's where I land on that. I'm a big ol' separatist.

StevieFan13

I'm antsy cuz it's going to take me a minute to make my list (and it's not like I don't have time!) but I'm anxious to have a list to add to the conversation!

Here are my votes!

StevieFan13

Any category Käärijä is nominated for, I’m all for it. I also wish there was a category honoring artists from Macau, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Tibet, or also Uyghur artists whose voices might otherwise be getting stifled by the Chinese government.

What about…

You’re overthinking it

Seek and Destroy is an 8

I like scanning through these early lists. I try to listen to at least one song I don't know from each list. Not necessarily the highest, but one in the upper part that catches my interest for whatever reason. Not sure I can keep this up when the lists come in fast, we'll see. Great list indeed, pa...

StevieFan13

Great list indeed, panam, although the band is just "Procul Harum."

StevieFan13

Listen, given the kinds of scores I brace myself for when one of my Eurovision picks shows up, I will TAKE averaging a 5-6.

HELL yes, Midnight Gold is a 10. Georgia haven’t come close to topping this. Pure, blistering rock with borderline seizure-inducing visuals and one of the most awkward band names ever. It got 12 points from the United Kingdom, and they were deserved.

StevieFan13

Did anyone ever checked who has the least different artists in his/her top 1000 ? I'd bet on either Brad, Moonbeam or Henry (but I might forget some big Beatles lover. On the other side, I wouldn't be surprised if Sonofsamiam or mindrocker had 1000 different artists ! I was trying to do a "one...

It's amazing how Henry's list has a billion Style Council songs except the one I actually know (Walls Come Tumbling Down).

Right, so when I did the math it came out differently (I wonder if they were counting remixes separately or something), but here's my best attempt. I broke ties for songs with scores of 10-4 by which got votes from multiple voters (so, for instance, the songs ranked from #s 60-68 all received indivi...

Er…not to be selfish, Hector, but could you make playlists of this and the other Crawford lists? I would but I’ve got a lot on my plate at the moment and I’m dying to actually listen to them. Hey there! No problem at all. I'd be happy to help with creating playlists for the Crawford lists. Just let...

Not a change, but can anyone add "Film Soundtrack" to Survivor - Eye of the Tiger? I mean, even though it came out before it, I believe it's so closely associated to Rocky III that a lot of people immediately think of it when the song comes on. I guess the question there is, how long befo...

I've been preparing my songs list in the expectation that that's the poll this year.

I remember reading about this when I was little and thinking it was a very early theme for the kids' TV show, Arthur. THAT show's theme song is great, but the best that this movie theme can do (ba-dum-tsshh) is a 4/10 for me.
