Could it be I'm POLLING in love? ~~~ ILM 70s SOUL/FUNK/DISCO TRACKS POLL ~~~ RESULTS THREAD!

(So that's a second explanation for old people. I don't know Guardians of the Galaxy.)

the funny thing is, those are both great songs lol

I agree! Too many great tracks in the list to pick real joke songs.

"Lady Marmalade" wrecked for me by Christina, et al thanks to my working in a record store at the height of Moulin Rouge.

The Simpsons ruined/immortalized "Ben" for me.

Da Ya Think I'm Sexy? and Station to Station.

"Disco Duck."

We already had Hall and Oates.

^ all better picks. I'm horrible at this stuff. So....

1. Curtis Mayfield - Move On Up

YAY!

Curtis wins the Soul Albums and Soul Songs poll

Move On Up was my #2

My #105 and #57!

Not old and not a fan of the film(s) so here's the third explanation for O-O-H Child: it's fucking beautiful! Not the ooh child part but all those somedays are out of this world.

I like Curtis Mayfield, but I guess I'm anchored to the charts for most of the decade. "Move On Up" didn't even chart...I missed whenever it became famous.

I think there are better Soul albums than Curtis but few better Soul songs than "Move On Up."

Not surprised it didn't chart, unless there's a single edit that I've (thankfully) never heard.

Curtis... is not that good? Riot is but as an album, this is too high for Family Affair alone.

ok with that 1-2 xp

So, are we doing the 60's or the 80's next?

disappointed that ArchCarrier's youtube link isn't the Sesame Street performance

otm

Just reading up on it and was released as a single. It charted in the U.K.

(Please don't think I'm saying Must Chart to Be Great. I'm not--just that songs usually Must Chart to Be Famous, and, by extension, to win polls like this one. So I'm just saying that its fame completely by-passed me.)

Thanks ArchCarrier for this!

Thanks Arch! This may be my fave poll to date, at least in terms of the sheer range of material that I could vote for/listen to/discover.

I vote 60s next, but only because the 80s is too huge of a listening project for me atm.

So, are we doing the 60's or the 80's next?

Don't know that I've heard or heard of "Band of Gold" or "O-o-h Child"

I knew Move On Up was going to take this poll as soon as it became apparent early on that the majority of voters were UK based. It's a great great song to be sure but it doesn't get nearly as much love in North America. This was true at the time of its release as well. The Jam cover may also have helped (see also "Stoned Out of My Mind") to cement its mythic status in the UK.

80s R&B is a v grim wasteland imo. There's good stuff but the charts are fucking dire.

xp

Another potential stumbling point for an 80s poll: how would you narrow it down to only certain Prince and MJ tracks?

fwiw, 'Move On Up' only slipped into first place at the very end. 'Family Affair' was #1 for most of the time. The difference in points is also very small.

My hot take is that I prefer the Destination disco version of "Move On Up."

80s would be interesting I think - classic Stax/Motown/etc face-off will be fun too but idk if there will be many surprises. I feel the continuity between 70s soul/funk/disco and what came after is less mined-out; maybe that's just my own ignorance though.

are we posting ballots here?

Sure, go ahead!

Thanks ArchCarrier, great poll and roll out.

Don't know why I'm thinking of this now, but I also wish I'd voted for "The Closer I Get to You" by Roberta Flack & Donnie Hathaway.

I had 66/100 on my ballot place in the top 200 so I'm pretty pleased with the results. Disappointed there weren't more votes for my #2 (the Pointer Sisters cover is fab but it's not the Meters).
