The top 11 songs from last week's Chart went through to this week's. Interesting how it took 18 weeks for us to finally land a tie in the 1st place position. But does it really matter in the end? Does any of this matter? No. Because Radiohead.

Here is your 2016 AMF Chart playlist of all songs on the chart so far this year:


Thank you all for voting and nominating continuously every week! Please don't be afraid to supply us with nominations - all songs six months old and younger (or who have received promotion via album/video/single in the last six months) are accepted! And seconding nominations by others gives those songs a better chance at making the next poll!

As per usual, the next poll will be created as close to Sunday at 19:00 UTC as I can make it. Best of voting! :D

Seriously, can we just get 10 people to motion the two Radiohead tracks automatically into the Hall of fame? Or at least "burn the witch"? It's clear that they're going to make it in, so shove 'em in, and get some other tracks on the poll.
I could be first :P

Seconded. Everyone's in shock over this.

There will inevitably be complaints of "selling out", but I like this instrumentation. It has a great solo and energy, even if the lyrics are a tad repetitive.

It's not their best work but a pleasant enough return.

Yes please.

My weekly reminder to get your votes, nominations, and seconding nominations in before the new poll tomorrow. My noms for the week:

Modern Baseball - "Mass"
Radiohead - "Present Tense"
Radiohead - "Decks Dark"

I'd be fine with 11 of the songs on this Chart being Radiohead for a couple weeks.

Request: Can we wait until at least 8 weeks have passed for Burn the Witch and Daydreaming on the charts to start adding more Radiohead in? Three songs are just ridiculous; I also thought that when Grimes' Flesh Without Bread, California and Kill v. Main were on the charts.

As always this is your chart, but I think we should consider a limitation on the amount of songs an artist has on a chart at a given time.
