Voted sugababes partly cos it's a great song and partly cos when they happened to come in the shop I was working in they refused to sign any copies of their album because the picture of them on the cover " didn't do them justice" which as excuses go is p good.

I was the #1 for "You! Me! Dancing!." Soundtrack for a birthday party my class threw me last year (unlisted setting).

i think i speak for us all when i say that i am dead at clemenza's video/explanation

also we need to find a way for gareth campesinos to see that
That video is wonderful! I would watch a full 8-hour documentary of that.

I was gonna vote Push the Button cos it's pretty unique but changed back to Overload final draft cos what a debut single and what an attitude it exudes
― or something, Monday, 14 October 2019 14:15 (four years ago) link
also I too love Overload and it was a very late cut for me, glad it made it nonetheless
― imago, Monday, 14 October 2019 14:16 (four years ago) link
omg, clemenza's class! That is the sweetest video.

good to know this poll's credibility is assured
― frame casual (dog latin), Monday, 14 October 2019 14:23 (four years ago) link
I didn't vote for any Newsom but Ys made a big impression on me at the time and if I was going to pick a standout track 'Emily' would be it.
― Gavin, Leeds, Monday, 14 October 2019 14:23 (four years ago) link
OTM.
And I'm listening on free Spotify so I'll make allowances but omg the sound of "Cry Me a River" is not holding up.

IMO "Chicago" loses a lot of its impact when listened outside the context of the album. On it's own it kinda sounds like it's trying too hard for a big, sweeping sound, but within Illinois, everything else has been building up to it.
― icy bike chain rain (zchyrs), Monday, 14 October 2019 14:38 (four years ago) link
I am thinking to post another 1 now, and 5 later. Does that sound acceptable?
― imago, Monday, 14 October 2019 14:44 (four years ago) link
More pls
― gyac, Monday, 14 October 2019 14:45 (four years ago) link
its neat that a concept album about the state of Illinois saves its biggest punch for that song, I thought that was really cool
― frogbs, Monday, 14 October 2019 14:45 (four years ago) link
I have images down to 83. Shall I just go to there and see what we can cook up later? In case we have a busy day later in the week it might be good to go as far as possible...

I voted for Chicago. Soaring strings and singing about mistakes is a winning formula. The notion of being in love with the illusion of somewhere based on the emotional connections enjoyed there always seemed so romantic and amazing to me when I would hear this whilst unpacking 60 crates of Christmas books.
Will check, Neechy!
― tangenttangent, Monday, 14 October 2019 14:52 (four years ago) link
Okay. This next one has the highest enthusiasm score in the entire rollout. Few of you voted for this, but those who did, you LOVED it
― imago, Monday, 14 October 2019 14:57 (four years ago) link
Maybe even still do!
― imago, Monday, 14 October 2019 14:58 (four years ago) link
xps My boy was born to Push the Button. Like a total ponce, I'd taken Eno and SoTL with me but in the madness 'what music?!' was waaaay down the list. The registrar chose - by default - and it was so fucking perfect I'm tearing up thinking about it.
And Clemenza, good to be reminded it's the best job in the world. That video is awesome.

Oh yeah, Pow! Extremely good, should probably have voted

Still hope to see another track which samples Pow! place.

Voted 'pow' too. Great tune. Mad at myself for not him nominating kano's "reload it" which gets me almost as amped as ' pow' does and I am not a person prone to ampage.

This is a very fitting tie in that I love them both and didnt vote for either
― or something, Monday, 14 October 2019 15:34 (four years ago) link
Think I put La Ritournelle at #3, such a stunningly beautiful piece of music
― mfktz (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Monday, 14 October 2019 15:39 (four years ago) link
Johnny Boy song is good, but the song title is so twee that I remember it as worse than it is lol
La Ritournelle is one of my many regrets, I blame the fact that I mostly looked through old playlists for my inspiration and that was a later discovery for me
― flopsy bird (voodoo chili), Monday, 14 October 2019 15:41 (four years ago) link
i think it's fair to say that we should feel relieved about anything that made it into the poll - the competition being so intense
enjoying the tellier!
