Made a change to my list. Because my library only contains the live version of No Woman, No Cry I had it filed under 1975 and forgot is for this list. Added it at 10, moved everything under it down and removed Dreamer. Hope this isn't a problem.

Tie-break pending...

Never imagined that 'Third Uncle' would be the Eno song to make the cut.

Edited to include Jonah's song votes.

[Jonah]

How many points for a #1 song? O My Soul had one vote for 50 points, but I had it as #3... so shouldn't it get more? Did I get my votes in on time?

[DaveC]

How many points for a #1 song? O My Soul had one vote for 50 points, but I had it as #3... so shouldn't it get more? Did I get my votes in on time?

I got your album votes, but I overlooked your songs list. In a few minutes, I will edit the songs results to include your votes. It won't affect the songs top 16 in any notable way (Unlike your Album #12 vote!)

[Rob]

Do I miss something or don't you have any ranking for LaBelle's Lady Marmalade, even though it got multiple votes?

[DaveC]

Do I miss something or don't you have any ranking for LaBelle's Lady Marmalade, even though it got multiple votes?

Hi Rob. I only listed the top 100 + ties.

112. Labelle - Lady Marmalade / 15 / 4

[Jackson]

A very pleasant surprise to not vote and then see that all my favorites made it anyway! Thanks to those voting for Eno, Wyatt, and King Crimson.

[Rob]

That is was a minor year is easiest to see in the song list, with quite a few songs with relatively few votes making the top 15. Less consensus here about what is great it seems. 6 songs here aren't ranked in the top 15 of the year of the official Acclaimed Music list. A record I believe. Another record is that no less than 3 of these songs aren't even bubbling under: Third Uncle, The Carpet Crawlers and Starless. Nothing could stop No Woman, No Cry of course. I am a little sad that Joni Mitchell didn't even score in this year, even after getting #1 at the album list. After she failed to get a song in from Blue I thought this was her strongest chance, but no.

The album list is less surprising, although I admit to never having heard of the Millie Jackson album. As usual, everything is in the album top 3000 of AM and only four are not in the top 15.
