Hi! 2011 was a quite good year for music for me, just as 2010. This happened specially in spanish music, where we saw great records by 5 modern classics. All of them reached my top 20. On the first place, another master piece from Polly Jean who reached #2 on my decade list. 1 - PJ Harvey - Let Engl...

FINALLY a list that recognizes this is one of the best songs of the year.

I fully agree. I was very surprised it didn’t have even a mention.

Toto you are back in the game (but you are on my priority list) You are right, one song was voted at 23:46 local time, the other at 00:26 the next day. As I see Toto is anyway out, I will go for: 147 Oasis - Don't Look Back in ...

I wanted to put less albums/songs in Spanish and more in other languages, but luckily most if my non-Spanish choices have already been selected. Letting out some of the songs was really hard. Best regards Songs Antonia Font - Calgary 88 Joe Crepúsculo - Discoteca en ruinas Astrud - Hay un hombre en ...

Heylazaro

I don’t understand why Suzanne doesn’t get more votes. It has been the weakest song for a while now.

Furthermore, it is much less important in rock’s history than other songs already out (i. e. Tutti Frutti, Hallogallo or Buffalo Stance.

I updated my list to include Radio free Europe - R.E.M. instead of the non acceptable No church in the wild by Jay Z & Kanye West

Hi, Funny game! Here are my suggestions. I tried to include some not too evident selections in order to make the game funnier. 1- Since I left you - The Avalanches 2- (Don't Worry) If There's a Hell Below We're All Going to Go - Curtis Mayfield 3- So young - Suede 4- Buffalo Stance - Neneh Cherry 5-...

Heylazaro

Kid A is an album I hate. It’s not the worst album I have listened too, but it is responsible of many undesirable effects: - It made me loose interest in Radiohead. A band I really appreciated and I had to rediscover a few years later (In rainbows era). - It is one of the albums where I less underst...

Heylazaro

Hi, What an incredible album. It has always been my favourite Prince album, maybe because I find Sing O’ the times too long, Dirty mind lacks real hits, Parade is too unbalanced (Kiss is far above the rest) and 1999 is so boooring. Purple rain is simply perfect. 2 songs that could be among the best ...

Heylazaro

Hi, According to RYM this would be my second favourite album. It was first once. When I decided to rate its tracks and before I played it, I though that maybe I had overrated it and it was not that good, but as soon as it started I remembered how good it was. Almost 30 years after it appeared I stil...

Heylazaro

Hello, For many years I have found people trying to convince me that Mezzanine is better than Blue Lines, and after reading the thread I see that the discussion is not near its ending. Personally I am a big fan of Blue Lines, which would make me older. Funny. At a certain moment this ranked as my fa...

Heylazaro

Hello, I was convinced that, at some moment in my life, I had given a chance to first Led Zeppelin album and I didn’t like. Strangely, it isn’t rated on my RYM, so maybe I am wrong. About IV, I was sure I had never listen to it and had no interest. With this background, my surprise couldn’t be any b...

Heylazaro

Hi, I have never been a very big Coldplay fan, but I appreciated some of their stuff, and this was my preferred album from the band. When I came back to it in order to rank tracks, I found most of this record too soft. It lacks punch. Of course, I still think some of the songs are great, but as a wh...

Heylazaro

Hi, I tend to be quite a “slow reactor” when I have to qualify records. Normally I need a lot of listenings to give a record 4 stars or more on my Rym. I perfectly remember the first time I heard Horses. I was so impressed it immediately found a place among my favourite albums. It was a long time si...

I have only listened to two Miles Davis albums. This was the first one and I was impressed by its quality and consistency. Later on I heard Bitches Brew and I didn’t like it, so I didn’t give him another try. When I came back to Kind of Blue today I thought that maybe I had not been fair to Davis an...

Heylazaro

Hi, During the last 30 years this album has gone from standing as the clear number one Beatles album to being surpassed by Revolver, Abbey Road and even The (minor) White Album. For me it keeps being their best, one of my favourite albums ever. This is one of the cases on which the whole is much bet...

I don’t know how your file is organised, but functions LOOKUP or XLOOKUP might help. The problem is that it will only find exact matches, if the name of a song is written different you will not find it. Another good option could be auto organise songs in alphabetical order from time to time. This wi...

Hello, I still cannot believe I put Hallelujah in 6th place! This record has 8 wonderful songs. It was extremely difficult to order number 2-9. All of them are incredible and 5 minutes from now I could put Grace on second place and Dream brother on 9th. Placement of this 8 is almost random. I find C...

Heylazaro

Hi, What a boring album! 25 years later I am still not able to understand why music lovers, and most incredibly, a big number of critics, praise this piece of scrap. The worst thing is that a bunch of songs as simple as it can be have an average length of almost 5 minutes, when most of them have sai...

Heylazaro

Hello, I like Joy Division. They made quite good stuff, but I don’t really understand why they are so praised. Probably the love they receive is bigger due to the tragic end of Ian Curtis, or maybe it’s just because their music is greater than I feel when I listen to them. For me New Order are ten t...

Heylazaro

Good afternoon, According to the last all-time-ranking I made many years ago, Ziggy would be my 5th favourite album. It could also be the first one. It is curious that none of these songs is among Bowie’s most popular (maybe Starman?) but the general level is so great and so balanced that it was one...

Heylazaro

Hello, Another incredible album whose geniality and forward vision must be credited to the band itself, but also to the work of producer Andrew Weatherall. They pushed the mix of pop-rock-techno to a different level. A few years later they tried to equal this masterpiece on the interesting Vanishing...

Heylazaro

Hello, It’s has been a real pleasure to revisit this album. It is one of the most exciting albums of the 90’s and it made me think about a couple of things: - I am not sure which of Björk’s first three albums I prefer. All of them are near perfection. I think Homogenic is the one I like best as a wh...

Heylazaro

Good evening, My second favourite album of the 2010’s. I was a big fan of PJ Harvey after Rid of me and To bring you my love, but a series of less glorious albums (at least for me), from Is this desire? to White chalk reduced my interest to almost nothing. When I first heard Let England shake I was ...

Heylazaro

Good evening, What a beautiful album!! :happy-wavemulticolor: I had never heard anything from The Zombies and from the first moment I have loved it. Most of its songs are wonderful. Only the last two tracks are a bit below average for me, but this could change with further listening. Current order: ...

Heylazaro

Hi! U2 was never a band I liked. I appreciated a few of their records (mostly Joshua and War) but I always though they were overrated. When Rattle & Hum appeared I thought that listening to any of its albums was a waste of time. Suddenly Achtung Baby! arrived, and from the first notes of Zoo Sta...

Innervisions could be one of the more consistent albums ever recorded. The level of every song is incredible, first 7 could easily make number one. Only a sample if the wonderful level of anything recorded by Stevie Wonder at the beginning of the seventies. 1- 03 | Living for the City 2- 08 | Don't ...

I never really cared too much about U2, at least until they published Achtung Baby! Regarding The Joshua Tree, I recognise it’s a good album, but it’s not my cup of tea. Furthermore, it’s one of the most unbalanced albums I have ever listen to in my life. For me first 4 songs in the album are very g...
