Caroline Polachek - Pang (2019) Elton John - The Captain & the Kid (2006) Never thought I’d live to see the day where I voted for an Elton John album over a Badly Drawn Boy album, but here we are. Honestly, Elton John’s voice has change so much it’s kind of crazy, doesn’t even sound like the sam...

5. Lists MUST be posted in an easily readable format, done by separating the rank, artist, and song with a symbol such as / or |. Please be aware that this will make the tabulation process must easier. YOUR LIST WILL NOT BE COUNTED IF THIS IS NOT DONE THROUGHOUT YOUR ENTIRE LIST. Example (not limit...

All versions of a single song by a single artist will be considered under the same song. Example: both the live and studio version of "I Want You to Want Me" by Cheap Trick will be considered the same song. What about both Dutch Version (Nederlandse Versie) and English Version of Het Goed...

If you promise to keep it a secret, I’ll let it slide just this once.

Just kidding, I haven’t added these last few lists yet so it can be included!

Alright, everyone, looks like it is finally time to begin our favorite songs of all time, this time in its eighth edition! That's crazy!

1. Neil Young with Crazy Horse - Zuma (1975) 2. Gustavo Cerati -Bocanada (1999) Zuma is (I believe) one of my own nominations, so hard to vote against it. Additionally, although my least favorite Fiona Apple album is still a truly great album, going up against a Neil Young masterpiece is something o...

Never listened to an Everything Everything album before, but I’ve clearly been missing out! Mountainhead is great, especially the first few tracks

Cadavaca wrote: ↑Thu Mar 21, 2024 4:19 pm Sweet! I'm fine to keep it at 1000 then. Elder's suggestion #2 would be useful to implement though.

Most people do this already; making it a requirement would certainly be helpful.

Cadavaca wrote: ↑Thu Mar 21, 2024 3:47 pm I'm happy to do the tabulation, but I really don't want to do the rollout. Maybe Holden and I should team up?

If you’re happy to do the tabulation, I’m happy to do the rollout!

Holden

I have a few thoughts: I’d be able to do the rollout if someone else wanted to do the tabulation in the traditional manner (where everyone posts a list). I will not do the tabulation this way, though, I do not have the time. However, I would be willing to do the tabulation through one of Elder’s met...

Sorry to the losers, a great week!

1. Mercury Rev - Yerself Is Steam (1991)
2. Songs of Separation - Songs of Separation (2016)

Already some great albums this year! Thanks!

Sorry to Emily Steinwall, the opening 10 minute track really is something!

2. Maldita Vecindad y los Hijos del 5to Patio - El Circo

Sorry to StevieFan and The Roches (which I did enjoy!) but Twin Cinema can’t be beat:

1. The New Pornographers - Twin Cinema

Only Jessie ware manages to cross the multi year boundary so far. Interesting!

Also the most appearances in the top ten for an artist last decade was five for Kendrick Lamar. Not even halfway there, and Jessie Ware has four!

2000 is so stacked. It sucks that years like 2006 and 2009 will get equal representation in this format.
