Picking 40 songs was much easier than I thought. Only 6 from the 90's on. Ranking them however....

Will be sending mine in a few hours...
― Kent Burt, Saturday, 25 May 2013 21:24 (eleven years ago) link
so i finally have my 40 songs, now to put them in order...
― Bee OK, Saturday, 25 May 2013 23:54 (eleven years ago) link
Whoops, I forgot all about '60mph' but I made up for it with 'Rock the Shack' at 40?
Vote 'Chosen Time', people

"Chosen Time" OTM!
― ḉrut (crüt), Sunday, 26 May 2013 00:51 (eleven years ago) link
Chosen Time OTM indeed.
Doubt it has any hope of cracking the top 20, but my top slept-on album track is 'Sooner Than You Think'. The whole band at the top of their game, ridiculous lyrics included.

I forgot how good this band is
― ḉrut (crüt), Sunday, 26 May 2013 01:04 (eleven years ago) link
yeah, that is what i have taken from listening to their whole catalog in these last few weeks.
it has been a blast to be alive!
― Bee OK, Sunday, 26 May 2013 01:07 (eleven years ago) link
every little counts
― ḉrut (crüt), Sunday, 26 May 2013 01:08 (eleven years ago) link
Sooner Than You Think placed top 20 on my ballot for sure.

Asking for help
Need someone's help to help with the art-work.
I was planing on running this poll during US hours from Tuesday thru Friday, since Monday is a holiday.
Now things have changed. Need to give the Doors some room, also work is going to get in the way a bit.
I'm going to start rolling out the poll Wednesday night but don't have enough time to make the picture's fun.
Asking for help: Would someone who has some time like to take over the picture aspect of this poll. Whatever you want to do i'll post with the results of the tracks poll.
email me at neworderpoll AT gmail dot com.
― Bee OK, Sunday, 26 May 2013 01:43 (eleven years ago) link
so someone is going to help me out with this poll.
Thanks!
― Bee OK, Sunday, 26 May 2013 02:32 (eleven years ago) link

i really liked his idea. will be much better than i would have done.

can we discuss the heavy, awesome guitar freakout attack that is "Sunrise"?
― A deeper shade of lol (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Sunday, 26 May 2013 19:22 (eleven years ago) link
That is the sound the sun makes as it rises. If you listen closely and you're up at that hour, you can hear it.
― free your spirit pig (La Lechera), Sunday, 26 May 2013 19:26 (eleven years ago) link
they were so cool they hired "the Killers" as proxies for the "Crystal" video.
― A deeper shade of lol (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Sunday, 26 May 2013 19:29 (eleven years ago) link
I still haven't voted. My ballot looks like a 15 year old made it. I might leave it that way.
As I've been thinking abt NO it strikes me how arbitrary my line is for lyrics that are too trite/corny/bad. Love Less is ok/Every Little Counts is not ok.

six hour are left
― Bee OK, Monday, 27 May 2013 01:04 (eleven years ago) link
Yeah!! Ballot sent!! I just couldn't rank the 40 songs. Dreams Never End is my #1 followed by 1963 and Dream Attack. After that it would have taken me forever to rank the rest. Could I put Leave Me Alone before Sunrise? Where's Weirdo place? Temptation vs Touched by the Hand of God? Sleeper track is Mr. Disco. Hope it places high!! Most New Order video by long shot - Round and Round.

i expect my #1 to be at least top 5 - but i reckon i'll be well on my own with my #2
― grange hermit crab (electricsound), Monday, 27 May 2013 01:28 (eleven years ago) link
we so far have 37 for artist poll 37, not including mine.
VOTING IS STILL OPEN

and one more!

i have sent confirmation emails, if you haven't received it than re send it please.
― Bee OK, Monday, 27 May 2013 03:17 (eleven years ago) link
I wouldn't vote the same way again. I did what I hate and voted strategically to ensure post Regret tracks got fair representation. Kind of fitting that I'm now filled with regret.
― brotherlovesdub, Monday, 27 May 2013 03:21 (eleven years ago) link
i hope it's not too late
― free your spirit pig (La Lechera), Monday, 27 May 2013 03:54 (eleven years ago) link

you guys sure love "Crystal."
― Bee OK, Monday, 27 May 2013 05:10 (eleven years ago) link
i'm going to bed, so if you are a bit late i will still count it.

Yep, me too.

I wanted to vote but am on holiday. Ballot would have had a lot of 'technique'. Looking forward to the results.

I voted for 'face up' as my #2 too

oh if only that was it
― grange hermit crab (electricsound), Monday, 27 May 2013 11:36 (eleven years ago) link
I'll be amazed if my #1 appears on anyone else's ballot tbh
― they are either militarists (ugh) or kangaroos (?) (DJP), Monday, 27 May 2013 15:18 (eleven years ago) link
nah I voted for "Sooner Than You Think" too
― A deeper shade of lol (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Monday, 27 May 2013 15:23 (eleven years ago) link
You shouldn't joke about that. You're getting my hopes up.
― Millsner, Monday, 27 May 2013 15:27 (eleven years ago) link
no one has mentioned my #1 afaik but i'm confident it'll squash the competitioneveryone loves "world in motion" right?
― free your spirit pig (La Lechera), Monday, 27 May 2013 15:29 (eleven years ago) link
the elephant in the room, surely a #1 contenderhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5UK40sSo8I
― Dr X O'Skeleton, Monday, 27 May 2013 16:14 (eleven years ago) link
that was in my top three, yes
― the girl from spirea x (f. hazel), Monday, 27 May 2013 17:11 (eleven years ago) link
might as well admit it... that's my number one. On some days, I really do feel that it might be my favourite song of all time.
And this is still one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen on the Internet:

I admit I didn't vote for it, because to me it's more "Joy Division", the b-side sounds especially like Ian. (The a-side, less so)
― Mark G, Monday, 27 May 2013 20:15 (eleven years ago) link
the 12" does credit the song to joy division
