Okay, here's the top 50 right now. Which of these acts do you feel should be below Nirvana? Using your criteria, here are the ones that I think should obviously be ahead of Nirvana. I'm not saying that Nirvana should be #7, but it's closer to how I see it than your 273rd place. Beatles Elvis Presle...

Given that recorded music has been around for 125 years, the last 15 years ahould only get about 12% (15/125). And that's assuming that you are ready to decalre an act an all time great after just 8 or 10 years. Considering the acts you had listed as new are from the past 45 years, that would make ...

I think I've got it now. The list is a combination of greatness according to you and popularity accoring to Billboard. If you confirm this I have no more questions.

You used Peter Frampton as an example of an artist who were very popular, but just over a few years, as an argument to not include new artists. But what about The Ravens? According to Wikipedia "They were one of the most successful and most influential vocal quartets of the period, and had seve...

I consider myself an above average knowledgeable music fan, and there are artists on this list I'm not really familiar with. Hence, as much as I think most of us should learn more about music history, to me the name of this list isn't fitting. It looks more like "the 200 most popular artists of...

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After 17 years' wait, we finally got a new list of best Swedish albums. The new issue is out today for susbcribers and they have also published a Spotify list (from 100 to 1, a few albums might be missing though).

Wow, cool! I didn't think my ideas were very realistic...!

Most of all though, GOOD LUCK WITH THE BABY!!!

Would it be possible to create an online version of the program, where we would all have access to the same list? Perhaps it would be possible to set it up with a check-in/check-out function, and limit the number of votes to say 10 per day and person. That would be really cool, wouldn't it? That wo...

My question wasn't really if your taste changes over time. I'm sure it does for everyone, more or less. What I wanted to know was if you think you can predict what you will enjoy more in the future. I don't think I generally can, but now and then I hear a song (usually in the dance-pop genre) that I...

When you make a list of the best new albums or songs, I assume you make the ranking based on what appeals you most at the moment. But if you instead tried to make a prediction of what you will still listen to 10 years from now, would the results be any different?

How about this rule for the tiebreaker?

If Greg or anyone else has seen all three films, he/they will decide which film is going to win.
If no one has seen all three films, then those who have seen two of them assign +1 and -1 points to the ones that they have seen.

Awesome recommendations, Dan and LiP!

Guys, if this game will reach the end it's time to stop arguing. While discussing the merit of different artists can be fun, we all seem to agree that this is a subjective matter. You get different answers if you look at AM, RYM, Grammy awards, sales charts or read quotes from musicians. DDD mashes ...

It was made by three people. I did most of the 50s and 60s stuff, and the other two guys were responsible for the 70s through today. Most of all, I think you need someone with a non-American perspective in your team. Edit: For the '80s i would use the results of Moonbeam's RYM polls as a major sour...

Bruno, you are not allowed to eliminate the same album twice.

Sorry Moonbeam, but I still don't see the masterpiece in 1999 that you do. Top 33 (rpms) 33. Prince - 1999 6. Marvin Gaye - What's Going On 8. The Rolling Stones - Exile on Main St. 12.

Very surprised that "Don't Go" wasn't voted a classic, or even ultimate.

1966, I think.
