AMF WC Classics Edition 46

Post by spiritualized »

It's time for instalment n°46 of the Classics Chart, where YOU get to nominate and vote for the best songs ever in a tournament to the death ! Only the cream of the crop will go through the grueling EIGHT weeks of charting.

Before we continue, thanks to the help of TheLastEnemy on the "regular" chart, I can now resume to a weekly chart. However, this will mean fewer votes per week. The two-weekly schedule seems to bring in 130-150 votes and by essence more representative. Would you rather have:
a/ better representativity, but longer time to vote
b/ a weekly schedule, more turnover and discovery, but less representativity ?

I would appreciate the point of view of every voter please !


:scared-shocked: 130 votes last week (-9 votes)
:scared-shocked: At the top, still N°1 : Procol Harum's Whiter Shade of Pale
:scared-shocked: 4 new entries : Television / PJ Harvey / Crowded House / The Smiths
:text-bump: The Human League / Blur / George Harrison / Rolling Stones are OUT !
:text-bump: No Hoffers this week

Enjoy voting for your favorite 10 songs... a difficult feat !

The Bangles - Manic Monday
But I was caught, like a fleeting thought,
Stuck inside Leonard Cohen's mind
