AMF WC Classics Edition 111
Hello everyone,
It's time for instalment n°110 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.
Nominations will follow the rules below
- only one of the first top 1000 AM songs can be nominated each week.
- A maximum of six of the top AM 1001-10000 songs can be nominated each week.
- that leaves a minimum of 3 places each week reserved for un-acclaimed songs (if you want more than 3, the fourth + unranked song will take the spot of a second tier one)
The top 10 songs by votes (then by most recent nominations) will move on to the next week. In case of equal votes and starting weeks, more songs can advance to the next week. The 10 (or less) new nominations will be added to the pool for the next contest. In case there are less than 20 songs to compete, a randomised song from the 10000 AM songs will be added.
After 8 weeks in the top 10, the song will move to the Hall of Fame.
129 votes last week (+4)
On the top step of the podium, for the fifth week running : The Velvet Underground - Sunday Morning
4 new entries : Chris Isaak, ELO, The Replacements & Pixies
Kicked out this week : CSNY / R.E.M. / Small Faces
Prince reaches the Hof for the First Time
(PS : replaced The Wedding Present with Tool's Invincible, as I could find the version I wanted online and Tool are my new obsession)
Listen to all 20 songs and enjoy voting for your favorite 10 songs... You can change your mind until the end of the 7 day period.
The AMF WC Classics Hall of Fame playlist :
Top Chart (number of weeks as n°1)
Nirvana - The Man Who Sold The World (1)
Sam Cooke - A Change Is Gonna Come (6)

Something completely unknown, which sounds pretty awesome to me.
Only 3k plays on Spotify, and what I could qualify as a Catalan Fugazi.
Nisei's 2007 Album "Continents" is really quite good. Full of polyrhythms which ring in my ear like a worm.
Best track so far : Una Setmana Sencera

Re: AMF WC Classics Edition 111
I am not sure if this is eligible...
It was originally released in 1976, but a few months ago a "remix" of sorts was released and that version is what I would like to nominate:
Léo Ferré | "Muss es sein? Es muss sein!"
Please tell me if it doesn't fit in here.

Re: AMF WC Classics Edition 111
Seriously People, one vote for Tool ? argh. Soon, I will put Pneuma's Danny Carey drumscam on as a mandatory viewing for everyone. Watched a dozen of "video" reactions to that video and all of them said they missed out on years of Tool. So, time to catch the gravy train !
Re: AMF WC Classics Edition 111
Hmmm... all of a sudden 4 votes for Tool!

^Moaning works! Or spiritualized's got multiple accounts...
Coming here actually to thank the Randomatron for picking the Håkan Hellström track- first song of his I've heard aside from the Kann ingen sorg för mig Göteborg album; he's got a formula but it's one I instantly warm to!
