You would not think to look at him but he was famous long ago.

clemenza, Thursday, 4 June 2015 23:28 (nine years ago) link

I figured this was a lock for the top ten. There are going to be some surprises.

kornrulez6969, Thursday, 4 June 2015 23:35 (nine years ago) link

I am going to be sad if no 80s tracks make it on here. Also, I haven't heard any of the post y2k stuff so I have a bias.

so good

rip van wanko, Thursday, 4 June 2015 23:48 (nine years ago) link

I thought this would be top ten.

Cherry Chapstick (And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside-Out)

Van Horn Street, Friday, 5 June 2015 00:07 (nine years ago) link

Their best "The Blue Mask" homage.

The burrito of ennui (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 5 June 2015 00:09 (nine years ago) link

Haven't counted, but the albums and singles results don't seem to jibe. I Can Hear won the albums, but I think Inside-Out (4th) placed many more songs.

clemenza, Friday, 5 June 2015 00:11 (nine years ago) link

Completely serendipitous: Cherry Chapstick/Cesar Cedeno.

clemenza, Friday, 5 June 2015 00:12 (nine years ago) link

I'm missing the Blue Mask/Cherry Chapstick connection, but it sounds great.

Sugarcube (I Can Hear the Heart Beating As One)
http://i854.photobucket.com/albums/ab101/Maax_Seguela/ylt09_zpsjfcf74me.jpg

Van Horn Street, Friday, 5 June 2015 00:27 (nine years ago) link

I always thought Cherry Chapstick was just a rehash of Sugarcube!

rip van wanko, Friday, 5 June 2015 00:31 (nine years ago) link

I always thought they were both inferior versions of Tom Courtenay

kornrulez6969, Friday, 5 June 2015 00:37 (nine years ago) link

I don't remember how I voted but I'd say #teamsugarcube

Van Horn Street, Friday, 5 June 2015 00:39 (nine years ago) link

Cherry Chapstick is the story of my life that being said, it brings the feels.

Van Horn Street, Friday, 5 June 2015 00:39 (nine years ago) link

wow, thought Sugarcube would have been top 5 for sure

Little Eyes (Summer Sun)

Van Horn Street, Friday, 5 June 2015 00:51 (nine years ago) link

Top five for me, and Georgia Hubley's closest Moe Tucker moment.

The burrito of ennui (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 5 June 2015 00:54 (nine years ago) link

Nice to see Little Eyes finish so high. This must be their highest-placing song post-And Then Nothing....

Van Horn Street, Friday, 5 June 2015 01:04 (nine years ago) link

I love this song too.

kornrulez6969, Friday, 5 June 2015 01:11 (nine years ago) link

Damage was my number one, Our Way to Fall my number two

Pablo and Andrea (Electr-O-Pura)
http://i854.photobucket.com/albums/ab101/Maax_Seguela/ylt06_zpsysg5u8zo.jpg

Van Horn Street, Friday, 5 June 2015 01:25 (nine years ago) link

Top five incoming!

Van Horn Street, Friday, 5 June 2015 01:26 (nine years ago) link

Our Way To Fall is one of those songs that gives me so much hope about love and relationships. The opposite of Cherry Chapstick which can be crushing.

Van Horn Street, Friday, 5 June 2015 01:34 (nine years ago) link

surprised to see Pablo and Andrea so high, it's nice but never stood out as a highlight

ufo, Friday, 5 June 2015 01:40 (nine years ago) link

Pablo and Andrea was on the lower part of my ballot. It's a good song with a master guitar solo.

i've been getting messages from outer space

mookieproof, Friday, 5 June 2015 01:43 (nine years ago) link

Very happy to have "Pablo and Andrea" place so high... Top 3 for me - love the guitar sound on that track.

Y'all like "Little Eyes" and "Our Way to Fall" a lot more than I do.

Van Horn Street, Friday, 5 June 2015 02:04 (nine years ago) link

Pablo and Andrea was my #1

JoeStork, Friday, 5 June 2015 02:05 (nine years ago) link

Deeper into Movies was mine.

Van Horn Street, Friday, 5 June 2015 02:05 (nine years ago) link

There go my 2 & 1, respectively.

kornrulez6969, Friday, 5 June 2015 02:10 (nine years ago) link

Wondering if Green Arrow is top 3

rip van wanko, Friday, 5 June 2015 02:10 (nine years ago) link

I don't think my #1 is gonna place. Pablo and Andrea was my #3, beautiful song and my favorite Ira solo.

campreverb, Friday, 5 June 2015 02:11 (nine years ago) link

So I take it The Ballad of Red Buckets is not going to show up. What's the matter with all you Red Buckets haters?

kornrulez6969, Friday, 5 June 2015 02:11 (nine years ago) link

what's left of the big ones? Autumn Sweater?

campreverb, Friday, 5 June 2015 02:15 (nine years ago) link

Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of These) hasn't placed yet.

Van Horn Street, Friday, 5 June 2015 02:18 (nine years ago) link

That was the song I predicted up thread would win, iirc I used the phrase "set in stone" lol

kornrulez6969, Friday, 5 June 2015 02:21 (nine years ago) link

Every song in the top 10 is monumental imo.

Van Horn Street, Friday, 5 June 2015 02:23 (nine years ago) link

I voted for both "Blue Line Swinger"s, the long one and the short one.

clemenza, Friday, 5 June 2015 02:25 (nine years ago) link
