oh you don't need to apologise for that; I only voted for 2 songs by those bands, both Yes, and both low on my ballot

I still haven't figured out why this poll is called "Not an Epics Poll."

It got called the "epics" poll as a shorthand when I first suggested polling based on track length in the queueing thread, but when we started discussing its parameters, people were constantly complaining that the time requirement left out songs that felt epic like I dunno some stupid GNR songs.

we're lying in bed reflecting on how this poll hates the British

It'll start rolling out when Britishes start rolling out of bed!

i got a lot of American on my ballot; i guess a sizeable chunk of it is jazz.

Eric, a bunch of my favorites got pushed out of the top 100 after I included your ballot. >=(

It wouldn't be a late ballot if it didn't push the results closer to the mainstream. (I say that having run the horror movies poll.)
