Songs and Albums of 1984 Poll

I hope Ride the Lightning will make the cut but I don't even have a top 5 to vote for (partly because I didn't have much time to listen to albums this month and partly because I don't like most of the ones I have heard).

On the other hand, I think it is a great year for songs :
1) Run DMC - Rock Box
2) The Replacements - Unsatisfied
3) Prince - When Doves Cry
4) Don Henley - The Boys of Summer
5) The Replacements - I Will Dare
6) Bronski Beat - Smalltown Boy
7) U2 - Bad
8) The Smiths - How Soon Is Now
9) Bruce Springsteen - I'm On Fire
10) Metallica - Fade to Black
11) Phil Collins - Against all Odds
12) Téléphone - New-York Avec Toi
13) Tears for Fears - Shout
14) Les Rita Mitsouko - Marcia Baila
15) Sonic Youth - Death Valley '69
Metallica - The Call of Ktulu
Queen - Radio Ga Ga
The Replacements - Favorite Thing
Metallica - For Whom the Bell Tolls
Echo and the Bunnymen - The Killing Moon
Prince - Computer Blue
Queen - I Want to Break Free
Téléphone - Un Autre Monde

Pretty much a 3 way tie at the top, I put Prince 3rd cause I think the other 2 are more likely to need a push.
The Call of Ktulu was my #10 at first, but it was based on the S&M version more than the original one.
The Works is not the worst of Queen albums, but from the Flash Gordon soundtrack to the Miracle they are all pretty bad (saved in the end by the fairly underrated Innuendo). Still, even at their worst Queen knew how to pull some good singles.

Listyguy (and everyone): I hope I’m not messing up anyone’s lists by asking so close to the deadline, but how are we treating compositions on “Tabula Rasa” like the title track and (especially) “Cantus in Memory of Benjamin Britten”? Most sources seem to say they are from 1977, but (to the best of my research anyway) RYM lists them only as part of the “Tabula Rasa” album in 1984. I felt compelled to ask, because I noticed sonofsamiam has “Cantus” at #2 on his list, and it would be a lock for my Top 10, as well.

We use the RYM released dates. So, although it appears that "Cantus" was written in '77, it wasn't put on vinyl until '84, making it (and the rest of that album) eligible for this year's poll.

This is a compilation and is ineligible for the poll. Care to add a new album to your list?

Favorite Albums of 1984:
(Actually, my #1 would be The Verlaines - 10 O'Clock In The Afternoon, but it's considered an EP, and therefore ineligible)

1 . R.E.M. - Reckoning
2 . Minutemen - Double Nickels On The Dime
3 . The Replacements - Let It Be
4 . The Homosexuals - The Homosexuals Record*
5 . Meat Puppets - Meat Puppets II

9 . Arvo Pärt - Tabula Rasa
10 . Cocteau Twins - Treasure

12 . Butthole Surfers - Psychic...Powerless...Another Man's Sac
13 . The Art Of Noise - Who's Afraid of The Art of Noise
14 . Black Flag - My War
15 . Prince - Purple Rain
16 . Billy Bragg - Brewing Up With Billy Bragg

* Not that it matters, but I'm not sure the Homosexuals record is eligible (may be considered a compilation, I suppose); hence my addition of Billy Bragg at #16.

Thanks friends!

Prince - "Electric Intercourse"

Hi Moonbeam, I noticed that this isn't even a B-side! Do you have a morbid curiosity toward what's waiting in the Prince vaults when he shuffles off this mortal coil?

I love so many of his outtakes! My username comes from his 1982 outtake "Moonbeam Levels".

Thanks! I did mean "Stranger Eyes." As for Simple Minds, take that one out, move the rest up, and add "Glory Days" by Bruce at no. 15.

I'm afraid this song didn't have many chances to get into the top 15. Anyway, I surely will put in my top 15 of 1989 at least a couple of songs from his excellent and underrated Blaze of Glory.
