I didn't realize so many lists were still coming in! Sorry about that! In the future I'll do some kind of last call to make sure nobody gets excluded. I think it is also better to wait until the month is finished all around the world, if I read "vote in April" I would assume on the 31st is OK where...

Damn, could barely pick 2 songs I like last week and now I had to make choices to stop at 10 !

1) Leonard Cohen - Songs of Leonard Cohen
This is meant to be Songs of Love and Hate, I'm assuming?

Yes it does !

I really don't like the middle of the 70s, but the great stretch of music that preceded it ended up with a bang on 71, really great year. You've got your classic rock legends, your soul greats, some forward thinking milestones... You even got a song with such a great hook that it got sampled in 3 so...

While we are asking for specific data : does anybody have the AM list of albums which their respective length ? Sometimes I have only 30 or 40 minutes available and wonder which album I would have the time to listen to and by the time I find a fitting album I have lost 5 of those free minutes. You ...

My third 1 from Hymie ! I was starting to worry it would never come, I got stuck with 2s and 3s recently.

Every Bad by Porridge Radio is the first album of this year to really stand out for me. However, all those are also quite good : Pantha du Prince - Conference of Trees Caribou - Suddenly Grimes - Miss Anthropocene Makaya McCraven - We're New Again, a reimagining The girlfriend also really liked The ...

8 songs by solo female artists in the top 10.

Thanks for the rollout and hard work, acroamor.

And Big Thief is female fronted.

And yet, Drunk II, in my opinion one the best rock songs of the decade, is not even top 50

Favorite surprise so far : Waiting Room in the top 200, I expected it to be close to the bottom ! Nice to finally see some love for Fugazi throughout various topics in the forum. Worst surprise so far : Temptation so low ! I guess it depends on which version you stumbled on first, but that song is w...

This Win/Loss matrix was then raised to the 8th power (as in the Album Ranking program), and the ratio of this matrix over its transpose determined the final points, after applying the natural logarithm. The effect of this is that each song is given credit not just for the songs it beats, but the s...

Hey Moonbeam, during the past weeks I listened to all 300 songs that reached the final round of the 80s poll. That was quite some work, but also a lot of fun. I just sent you the Excel file with my favorite 100 songs ranked in column G. Let me know if this is OK. And hopefully my #1 will make it to...

Surprisingly enough, right when I saw the title of the discussion I thought about a 5 song stretch, from an album in the bottom part of my all time top 100. The dichotomy between that and the rest of the album might make it pop up more than stretches from my very favorite albums (though actually, a ...

Hi guys, I was wondering what were your favorite video games of the decade, here are mine : 1) Borderlands 2 (Xbox 360) Maybe I would feel different now, older and wiser, but I never laughed as much as with this game (and its 2 best DLCs, Torgue's and Tiny Tina's). Both the pre sequel and Borderland...

Looking at the album list, I have listened to most of them but so many fall in the "I have heard that but have no recollection of it" category that I have no idea how I'm going to rank them (and also am mad at myself for not taking quick notes after listening to them).

Some sites use "Greatest, Best", "Most Important", etc. It's basically the same for them probably It's just personal interpretation but I agree with Harold- there was a similar Billboard list that listed what they deemed the most memetic songs of the decade or those that the decade would be remembe...

I think unranked songs from bubbling under albums shouldn't be excluded, as the delimitation is a bit arbitrary. If I'm correct some of the bubbling under albums are there due to a couple of old lists, while Henrik wouldn't even include albums that have recently have appeared in the same number of l...

Mask Off is the worst song in the EOD top 100. It has every element of a typical forgettable mumble rap song: This song embodies one of the biggest trends in music these days, but I still struggle to understand why that trend is so popular, and I have a hard time seeing mumble rap like this standin...

Even if I said the 70s is the worst decade of music for me, I still think we should continue with our usual cycle and tackle it next year. There is already going to be most likely an end of decade poll, so going with 2010s for the yearly poll would be overkill. That can wait 2023 for sure.

Also remember that for every good song of the 00's there are 5-10 from the 70's. That's the other way round for me, the 70s is by far the decade I like the least (if we start with the 60s to the 2010s). There are obviously a couple exceptions a year, but the 71 to 76 stretch is the crossing of the ...
