8. Digital Love

Actually, I need to break my promise of not posting until my list is done.

What happened to Gillingham's list?

Sweepstakes Ron

Now that I'm finally starting on getting all this info together, what formula should I be using? The one from before was fine, methinks, but it may need to change if the number of voters differs substantially from the previous poll. So you may need to hold off on deciding until the deadline. (Okay,...

Sweepstakes Ron

I'll do Björk:

1. Play Dead
2. Venus As a Boy
3. Isobel
4. Joga
5. Army of Me
6. Human Behaviour
7. Bachelorette
8. Hyper-Ballad

What, exactly, are one's duties as an owner. Do I just pick the songs and that's it, or do I have to maintain a constant presence during the game?

Sweepstakes Ron

Crap... I think I'm the only one so far whose promised a list and hasn't yet delivered. Don't worry, I have been working on it. But it probably won't be done for at least another week.

There's also Pixies for U.S. bands, though they were more popular in Britain during there career (it's evened out more in recent times).

Sweepstakes Ron

Last year's update was July 27, so I'd shoot for that until Henrik says otherwise.

Sweepstakes Ron

About a month until the deadline, everyone!

If you don't mind me asking, how many different songs do you have entered in the program?

Sweepstakes Ron

I haven't done enough listening this year to make a good song list, but expect "Realiti" to rank very high in my all-time songs list.

Sweepstakes Ron

I can't wait for the last minute... because I'm leaving 3 days before the deadline. I'm working on mine right now.

Is there something evil about this site that you guys haven't told me about? I've used it to listen to many albums for months now with no problems.

I've found a website where you can hear Exodus. I wouldn't recommend buying anything from this website, but you shouldn't have to.

Oblivion would have been my #1 had I voted.

I noticed that "Laura" by Bat for Lashes did not show up, despite being in AM's all time top 1000 (#38 of the decade), which is kind of a shame because it's rising up pretty high in my all-time list. One morning, I woke up and felt like I needed to listen to "Laura" right away, l...

Sweepstakes Ron

So, if my predictions are correct, it seems like like 2014 has only one song remaining; meanwhile, MBDTF alone has four songs remaining!

Sweepstakes Ron

Me, I'll definitely submit a list, but I won't be able to get to 500 songs. I've had to think a lot about what constitutes a "personal favorite" for me.

Sweepstakes Ron

'Blackbird' in the top 5. Fab!! But....'Everybody's Got Something To Hide...' isn't in the top 100 and the truly abysmal 'Across The Universe' is number 7??? Not so fab. That's the bloody NME for you. Peace out to Henrik and all at the AM Forum. Keep on truckin', ya' dig? Welcome to the forum, EdAm...

You'll need to take one of these duplicates and bash it up, bash it up, bash it up, bash it up.

Okay. So my gaming experience doesn't expand beyond Nintendo and little beyond Smash Bros. I've still yet to play a Donkey Kong Country game (except Barrel Blast... *shudder*), or Metroid, or Star Fox, or even Animal Crossing. And the only Zelda game I played was when i button-mashed through half a ...

Sweepstakes Ron

5 is the minimum for a list, right? This is the only era I'd be able to conceivably vote in, but looking back, I've probably played less than I thought... I may have to vote for both Brawl and Sm4sh.

In the 2012 all-time songs poll, Kanye got 4 songs in (Runaway, Gone, Monster, Gold Digger). I feel a feeling that he'll have a better performance this time around.

Sweepstakes Ron

I'd put my top 5 as: Power, Black Skinhead, All Of The Lights, Monster, and Jesus Walks. Though this may change because I need to re-listen to some of his older stuff, and I still haven't heard WTT.

Ugh... I want to participate, but I haven't even listened to 50 albums from this decade, and I can't come up with 50 songs I like enough to want to put in a list... though most of them would be usual suspects, along with the two songs i nominated for Unacclaimed 2.0 and "Lights" by Ellie G...

So apparently, loser.com now leads to Kanye West's Wikipedia page.

I need to bump this. With the songs poll coming soon, people are going to be posting some very long lists, and I feel like spoiler tags will be needed more than ever.

Sweepstakes Ron

What's the minimum for a list?

This. All I really need to say here. 1 is my designated deathbed album.

Sweepstakes Ron

So Kanye just performed on SNL with a medley of Jesus Walks, Only One, and Wolves (with Sia and Vic Mensa). The hype grows stronger. Actually, I can say that this is the very first album that I've been hyped for (unless Grimes somehow beats him to it).

So I just listened to Dig Me Out, and it's certainly a bit more rough around the edges than the new album (except maybe "Little Babies"), but I still really like it! I can't see Sleater-Kinney ever being a big favorite of mine, but I'm gonna check out more of their stuff, and who knows? Ma...

Actually, I think Shirley's pretty on point there. She's being reasonable about the whole situation without any bias or favoritism

2005: Sufjan Stevens- Illinois: "Chicago" is amazing, and I somewhat recall "Man of Metropolis" being moving. I can't see myself being a huge Sufjan fan, but I'll definitely come back to this one. 2006: Belle and Sebastian- The Life Pursuit: Haven't heard it. 2007: LCD Soundsyste...

I'm not gonna try to justify Yeezy's behavior, but some people are definitely overreacting to the whole situation. But what to expect, this is the internet after all.

This is the only 2015 I've listened to so far. I haven't heard any of Sleater-Kinney's other albums, but I'd say this was a fine introduction for me. It probably won't go down as an all-time favorite, but it's got some alright songs with excellent vocals (for the instrumentals... I'm not too sure ho...

I added four more songs to "classique" even though they were already mentioned in other posts.

Coati Mundi's "Me No Pop I" seems to be from 1980.
