Do it.

Whoops - the last one was supposed to be George Clinton. Oh well. Pick the George Michael list of your preference!

I think the 500 Women in Music and the 100 Greatest British songs are too big of a poll to do in one week.

I said - particularly of the former - that it'd probably be over the course of the remainder of the month if that's the pick. 'Cuz, y'know, Women's History Month.

There's always next year.

I think you should leave the option to vote for 3 or 5 lists in the poll if you want to get a consensus.

Did that.

You can nominate up to three now!

Anyone else think we should do albums at the same time? (which we definitely should have done with R.E.M. and Rolling Stones)

That could be fun. More interesting in songs at the moment, as album-related polls definitely aren't a rare sight on the forum, but at some point, probably.

Also, based on those polls, I don't think you'd have to stretch too hard to guess which of those albums would take top honors, based on how many songs from each made the cut.
And speaking of lists: one day left to submit lists for the Smiths poll!

I re-thought my post, and I realize that is hard to run a discography poll in one week, so I can see why the additional albums poll on top of the songs poll would be infeasible in a week's time. So yeah... just more thoughts on the idea. Thanks for the followup, though.

On another note, now that multiple options are open, we have a three-way tie between ABBA, Stevie Wonder, and Kanye West.

I'm more of an albums person anyway so that's cool with me.

Another tie - Stevie and ABBA are neck-and-neck.

Maybe it's about time I ran a poll myself haha. I am down to run individual artists' albums poll a couple of times. Shall I do it? I need more feedback. If I do it, we need to decide on duration too, because a week seems too short.

While we're waiting to find out who breaks the tie, the results of the Smiths poll are up.

I changed my Kanye vote to Stevie Wonder.
