No it won't be, blackstar was ranked 4th in our end of decade poll, Blonde was 54th, they are not in the same league as far as AMF love goes. Blonde probably won't be top 3, it will be behind Lemonade and A Moon Shaped Pool. Wouldn't be surprised if it was also behind Skeleton Tree or slightly less...

I don't think so, I don't think it will rank higher than BotW. I think at the very least it will be slightly impacted by (I would gue...

2016: Blonde 2016: It's going to be a heated one between this and Bowie. I don't even think Beyonce, Mitski or A Tribe Called Quest could get close, Leonard maybe.

I feel your frustration, but there is a problem with not voting for these five: the element of choice get all but removed. You get 10 picks out 17 songs. This way you have already removed 6 from the options: the five boring picks and your own nomination, which you aren't allowed to vote for. That l...

Nassim

I didn't vote for the 5 I consider more well known than the original because that's no fun to me, but given that 4 of them are currently in the top 5 I guess not everybody felt the same.

Nassim

I hope you guys tried to be a bit original in that first round, I won't vote for All Along the Watchtower or Hallelujah !

Nassim

Am I correct if I assume Model/Actriz didn't get enough reviews ? Because I only have seen positive ones.

Nassim

1. Low | Things We Lost in the Fire (2001) If like me you really discovered music in the mid-00s through indie oriented magazines and websites, you just assumed those 2 were absolute classics all critics loved. I love both but Things We Lost in the Fire is in my all time top 50 so that's an easy pick.

Nassim

I'm gonna skate to one song and one song only. Songs : I didn't include songs from Twin Fantasy and will keep them for 2018, I think the 2018 version is the better one (plus the year is weaker so it balances things out) 1) Low - Especially Me 2) Orelsan - Suicide Social 3) Low - Witches 4) The Root...

I'm honestly stunned you have listened to so little albums ! Well I would have expected that from 2017 StevieFan, but after 6606 posts that's a shock ! I don't have the full list of albums I have listened to, only the ones listed on AM (somewhere between 1600 and 1700 I think), so I guess I have lis...

Looks fun indeed, could be the opportunity to try "out there" categories instead of years or genres.

419. Paul McCartney - Driving Rain : 4 (I don't give a lot of ratings below 5 so it's a surprise McCartney would get one) 418. Jennifer Paige - Crush : 6.5 417. Todd Rundgren - A Dream Goes On Forever : 5 416. Spacemen 3 - Walkin' With Jesus : 8 415. Gabriel Fauré - Requiem, Op. 48 : V. Pie Jesu : 7...

413. Red Hot Chili Peppers – Higher Ground: 7.5
Can it hold a candle to Stevie's version ? Surely not but it's a cool showcase for Flea and Frusciante (though Kiedis shows his limits as a singer)

Nassim

412. Ava Max - Sweet but Psycho : 6 411. Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds - Get Ready for Love : 8.5 (8.5 as a standalone song, 10 as an album opener and I would imagine 11 as a live show opener) 410. Groove Theory - Tell Me : 6 409. Ramones - I Want to Live : 6.5 408. Elliott Smith - New Disaster : 9....

It's hard to make a precise comparison because the voting system was a bit odd back then but the main changes compared to the actual end of 2010 poll is a big drop for Ariel Pink and Titus Andronicus, and a big climb for Body Rock from #20 to #8.
The top 3 hasn't changed !

Nassim

I recommend the Parannoul album "After the Magic" It's a Korean band and IMO it is the kind of music that most AMers like : indie rock with strong shoegazer influence. Great songwriting, great sound. I found it in the Rate Your Music 2023 top albums list. Yes, it's been talked about befor...

Nassim

Oh yeah, most importantly than complaining about the results, I need to say that I'm once again stunned by those gifs !
Do you make some of them yourself or do you have the best gif search engine around ?

Nassim

Haven't seen many movies, but I doubt anything can top Aftersun's final scene ! And it's also fairly sure that Waymond from EEAOO will remain my favorite character of the year, the role model we needed to counter toxic masculinity. Shout out to the Rescue Rangers movie which didn't have to be that f...

Wow! These last few years, I had been feeling more and more like Abe Simpson during these polls. But now, we have me agreeing with the #1 album and a #1 song in my Top 5. So maybe I'm not so out of touch after all. I only appear once in the biggest fans section, down at 75, so I can't say I align m...

Super Bass is listed as a 2011 song on AM but I think Cicice is correct and it was on the deluxe edition of Pink Friday that was released in 2010 if discogs and Wikipedia are correct.

Our last 4 AOTYs are all very good, but I'm hoping we can swap out the winners in 2013, 2014, 2017, and 2018 as we redo the 2010s polls this year. Quickly browsing the list, if I have to bet against one it would be Titanic Rising against NFR and then channel Orange against good kid MAAD city (thoug...

Our last 4 AOTYs are all very good, but I'm hoping we can swap out the winners in 2013, 2014, 2017, and 2018 as we redo the 2010s polls this year. It's not impossible that this happen but for each year I don't see an obvious album that could beat them, especially given the forum's tastes. For insta...

I will join the chorus of applause, wonderful rollout. I'm also happy to see the voters completely threw the usual rock'n'roll centric canon away and, even if you put classical music aside, ended up with something pretty different from the AM rankings (the Be-bop-a-lula and You Send Me results were ...

Nassim

Kendrick not #1
Black Country, New Road top 3
Beyonce #1?

Nassim

I don't know which is objectively the best but I think the Pitchfork 500 is still my favorite list ever, it's aimed not strictly to select the 500 best songs of the period but to paint a panorama of the evolution of music through those years and does it pretty successfully (if with a very western En...

Well my bottom 8 is in that bottom 10, I did enjoy Yesterday is Heavy and I like Cherry though I agree it's a tad overlong (and probably no in most people's alley). Within my bottom 8, I won't pile on my bottom 2 which I think are truly terrible but I will call out deathcrash as the most disappointi...

Nassim

Listened to the Maneskin album out of curiosity, it's very unmemorable but safe for a couple truly terrible tracks it's not as bad as Greta Van Fleet or anything Muse has released in the past 10 years

This was from 2021.
Great song!
Songs from 2021 are eligible when they weren't on the top of last year.

Not if they made our top 100 in a previous year, this song was #19 last year so it's not eligible

Already seems safe to bet on a top 10 ranking for the boygenius upcoming album come end of year time. $20 is pretty awesome, Emily I'm Sorry is good Phoebe Bridgers fare and True Blue is great too so unless the rest of the album shows a huge deep of quality this seems like a guaranteed critical darl...

Probably won't factor much in the final results as nobody voted for either yet, but do we consider LUZ and Quest for Fire by Axel Boman as a 2 disc album or as 2 separate releases ?

So, get ready for the greatest all time top album list ever ? Maybe ? I don't know, Treble is usually my favorite source maker.

Is it OK to ask where is the greatest film of all time, Jeanne Dielman ? Didn't you guys get the memo to shake, rattle and roll your canons first ? I mean, Citizen Kane ? Really ?

From the critics lists that have dropped so far, I've barely seen any Black Country, New Road. That album is #1 all over the internet but I'm not sure if it'll even make the top 10 for the critics. Beyonce and Kendrick Lamar seem on track for the top 2. I'm fairly confidant Black Country New Road w...

The list with only director votes is also available, unlike the other one it includes Come and See so big improvement for me !
It also drops Jeanne Dielman to the #5 spot behind 4 of the tspdt top 5.

Yeah most French paper publications missed the poptimism train, or the indie train before that, and the electronic music train before that, and the rap train before that and the punk train before that (though they caught up on that one a bit). The old guard is still strong here !
