Hi Rob: Sad to know that your "10.000 Songs 10.000 Opinions" threads came to an end. But that was something bound to happen. The burden you imposed yourself (review every song of the 10.000 randomly) was surely overwhelming. Probably a higher participation and feed-back from the AMers coul...

Only one album ranked this week, "Illinois."

Fantastic next 5 (although I would like to see 46-49 even higher)
BleuPanda, you should add to Liz Fraser songs #34 (Teardrop) and #228 (Song to the Siren).

Hmm, sorry in advance for what I'm going to do to you. I will begin with a Top 10 but probably I'll get to post a Top 25 later. Not easy for me to find so many songs because I want to impose myself some restrictions of what a guilty pleasure means in my case. I can't feel guilty for liking a feel-go...

13/30 (43%) of the albums were recorded by female artists or bands featuring females. Not bad. Sadly only of them on the Top 10.

What exactly are the criteria people look at when assessing artists? I'm just shocked that someone has landed in our top 100 when we just did a top song and album poll and they placed a single song that ranked outside of our top 500. How can someone be a great artist if we apparently don't care muc...

And I realized now I listened to the wrong albums for the last matchup, I listened to My favorite faded fantasy and Cat House Piano. Which is actually week 16 matchup 3. Will have to add last votes later. Jirin, Bang Jan made a fantastic Spotify playlist with all the albums ordered for the game. Yo...

Fantastic first week after the last! 8 albums updated thanks to bonnielaurel (6) and Mulholland (2) - Automatic for the People - Odelay - Loveless - Grace - Let England Shake - Back to Black - Murmur - The Bends I've decided to keep this thread on the main subforum, at least while people still keep ...

Wow! Gorgeous pictures!

I expect 63 artists of my Top 100 to appear on the final Top 100, while 9 of the remaining artists of my Top 100 probably won't show up. I can't figure out many of the other 37 artists (but please no spoilers, I prefer the surprise).

Sorry, BleuPanda, no time for comments this time...

Thank you, prosecutorgodot! If you're actually going to be accepting votes from Johnny come latelys like myself, I might start at the beginning and work my way through :D Where would you want the late-rankings posted? On the albums themselves or here? Honorio, I will be getting back to ranking some ...

Good observations, bonnielaurel and Listyguy. I did some (minor) research on our lists (only taking into account the highest ranked song from every album) and it's true, usually the price goes to the first song on the album (on 28/100). Next positions are: - 4: 12/100 - 2: 9/100 - 7: 8/100 - 5, 9 an...

So that was all, with "Post" we have ranked 100 albums and the game came to an end. Many thanks to everyone who voted here (a total of 117 voters!). A special thanks to jamieW and ordinaryperson who ranked the 100 albums!! And a very special thanks to babydoll and BleuPanda who preceded me...

Some stats about participation: 153 voters participated on the game. Here you can see how many voters had every album and how many albums ranked every voter. First the albums ranked according to the number of voters Number of voters | Name of the album 51 | Revolver 50 | The Velvet Underground &...

I always viewed Be My Baby as first and foremost a Phil Spector song. It's a bit wry that the first place goes to a song were the main creative brain was a man. Though I would have voted for the song too, so there. Must be Ellie Greenwich, who wrote "Be My Baby," "River Deep Mountain...

Take your time, Bleu! There's no hurry. Thank you for your effort in these women's polls.

I just don't see how stating you don't like an artist is an attack on someone's taste and why there is a taboo here on disliking something (though admittedly this is a celebratory topic). I was one of the voices that claimed about positivity vs. negativity but of course you (and everyone) are absol...

Yes, thank you, Bang Jan!

Welcome to Rank the Tracks, Mulholland!

And on the last week of Rank the Tracks we have the more than probable winner of our incoming Women Artists Poll… https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/3f/Bjork_Post.png Björk's "Post" (1995) Tracklisting: 01 | Army of Me 02 | Hyper-Ballad 03 | The Modern Things 04 | It's Oh So Quiet...

After listening on repeat "Homesick" I've pushed up it two positions on my list. It's really a great song. I read on the Internet that it was the last creative input by Lol Tolhurst (the first-drummer-then-keyboard-player and founding member of The Cure) before leaving the band after the s...

6 albums updated, 5 of them thanks to talking, a newcomer.
And we are entering the last week of Rank the Tracks…

Certainly not for me. I've been holding off on rating this album because it has meant more to my life than any other, being the album I listened to incessantly the summer of my graduation. To me, no other song reminds me more of that feeling of fear, anxiety, hope and longing than "Homesick.&q...

Hi talking:
1. Maybe you forgot to rank "Hey Joni" or should I put it last on your list?
2. We ranked the three parts of "Trilogy" as one song, since you put "Eliminator, Jr." on # 4 I assigned this position to "Trilogy" on your list

Welcome to the Forum, talking!

A quite disapponinting participation on the album of the week ("Hunky Dory") giving the fact that the two previous Bowie albums got massive participations (33 voters for "Ziggy" and 16 for "Blackstar"). But anyway "Life on Mars?" almost got the top spot of all...

Just re-listened to Suzanne Vega's "Luka." Wonderful song, it should have been on the Top 50 at least. I wish I'd have put higher on my list (it was #61 anyway).

Excellent songs on #101-#125, well worthy of Top 100
