Fixed it

If I was to make predictions, I'd say Little Simz stays as number one. I suspect Hey What, CMIYGL, PRomises, Afrique Victime, and Jubilee to stay in the Top 10 as well. I predict Turnstile, Sleaford, Olivia Rodrigo, and Adele to fall, specifically. Olivia Rodrigo and Adele are only so high because o...

It says Germany on Wikipedia and it was German last year so that’s how it’s getting entered.

Holden

Lot of good picks, just bad order.

Holden

Am I wrong or is this a German magazine/website, not from Denmark?

Following with the poll from last month, in which I asked you to post your favorite Stevie Wonder songs and albums in ranked lists and then compiled them, this month we will be moving on to the next artist on the list, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds! Please post as many songs/albums in your lists as ...

Dude Looks Like A Lady in today’s culture comes off a bit as anti-trans and macho bullying. And of course, when you learn Delia’s Gone is perhaps not entirely fictional. I remember the song being associated with Mrs. Doubtfire and did not find it offensive in that context. I’ve never felt like Dude...

Top 30 from 27 Ballots!

8 more lists! But they are all 1000 in length, so it may still take a little while.

Holden

Per request adding another week to this poll!

Holden

Okay so since, again, I'm really NOT gonna get to this for a little while longer, I'll extend the deadline to the end of the year. Thanks for your patience everyone, sorry the all time poll is taking so damn long!

Holden

The general PopMatters list should be eligible.

Holden

Okay this is how last year's source was phrased so it'll be included like last year!

Holden

I'll be updating this as I go as well. Up there are the sources remaining.

To me this article implies only two people worked on it

I feel like criticism is certainly reasonable. I don’t hate them for it. It was a mistake, but I don’t think they should’ve used the word, and I’m not scared to say that they shouldn’t have. I don’t think they were promoting racism but they aren’t above criticism because of that.

Holden

All of these songs can’t compare to A Tribe Called Quest’s “Georgie Porgie”, a song so incredibly homophobic that the record executives for the band demanded it was pulled from their masterpiece album The Low End Theory. Here’s the opening verse: “ In the beginning, there was Adam and Eve But some ...

Beastie Boys' "Hold It Now, Hit It": "You like men and we like beer." Bob Dylan's "Hurricane", Elvis Costello's "Oliver's Army", and Dead Kennedy's "Holiday in Cambodia" (as well as some certain Patti Smith and Yoko Ono songs.) Nirvana's "Come ...

Holden

Sure, I can do this again.

Holden

I haven't been that impressed with a whole lot of music this year to be honest, some of my favourite artists have produced just okay work (St. Vincent, Damien Jurado and saddest of all Villagers). Let's put Courtney Barnett, Damon Albarn, Parcels and Lorde in this category :( I liked St. Vincent, m...

I guess this is not accessible in other countries? (If so, I'm sorry)

Shucks that was my mistake I’ll fix it later

Bruce no offense but you’re bad at this lol.
Every time you come in you drop a song and ask “who recorded this”.

In Year End lists lists must be made by three+ critics. His classic picks and decade-end lists are included.

Which is the clear runaway I wonder, Hurt or Hallelujah?? All along the watchtower ? Hurt is a tough one for me, I like the original better by a fair margin but I also think it's a textbook example of what a great cover is, something that leads to something really different from the original, not j...

Just to warn everyone, if Trout Mask Replica does not make the final list of 150, I will be leaving the forum in protest. This is nonnegotiable.

I ended up enjoying Prioritise Pleasure! Solid synthpop stuff, rougher than Dua Lipa but more accessible than Charli XCX. Nowhere near yearly number one, but good! I also assume that this one will fall a bit as it gets more reviews.

One day remaining on this! I promise, I'll get the results out at some point but right now my priority is the All Time Songs poll.
