Don't know post-Morning Glory Oasis well enough to vote, but I also don't imagine I'm missing much. I am pretty excited to see Talking Heads coming up shortly if you wanna run something, Bee OK. Feel like you'll get a good turnout with that one too

If you poll Oasis though, please do a Gallagher bros quotes poll

I know the albums well enough, save "Dig"' and all the b-sides that get labelled 'inessential'

So, I'll 'ave a shufti, let's say.

this is going about as well as expected

Bee OK, Friday, 1 July 2016 00:46 (seven years ago) link

i know Vinnie, Talking Heads is going to be a blast but i don't think i'm going to touch that one until around Feb 2017.

i'd do this, mostly bc I love reexamining bands I've written off 10000000 times

Round,
Like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning
On an ever-spinning reel
Like a snowball down a mountain
Or a carnival balloon
Like a carousel that's turning
Running rings around the moon
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
Past the minutes of its face
And the world is like an apple
Whirling silently in space
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind

Like a tunnel that you follow
To a tunnel of its own
Down a hollow to a cavern
Where the sun has never shone
Like a door that keeps revolving
In a half-forgotten dream
Like the ripples from a pebble
Someone tosses in a stream

Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
Past the minutes of its face
And the world is like an apple
Whirling silently in space
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind

Keys that jingle in your pocket
Words that jangle in your head
Why did summer go so quickly?
Was it something that you said?
Lovers walk along a shore
And leave their footprints in the sand
Is the sound of distant drumming
Just the fingers of your hand?

Pictures hanging in a hallway
And the fragment of a song
Half-remembered names and faces
But to whom do they belong?
When you knew that it was over
You were suddenly aware
That the autumn leaves were turning
To the color of his hair?

Like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning
On an ever-spinning reel

As the images unwind
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind

all-summer bracket poll for every band in the swagger of oasis thread

Everyone who voted Leave should take part in this.

xyzzzz__, Friday, 1 July 2016 11:59 (seven years ago) link

Voted yes and apologies for volunteering originally but getting busy

poor fiddy-less albion (darraghmac), Friday, 1 July 2016 23:25 (seven years ago) link

i'll vote, so long as a flimsy knowledge of anything post-2002 is ok.

piscesx, Saturday, 2 July 2016 00:06 (seven years ago) link

it will be.

i'm really excited to see these results. i don't have any interest in really doing this poll but if the votes are there i will listen again.

Has there been a Fall poll?

― Neptune Bingo (Michael B)

one of ILM's best posters Mark G ran the Fall poll:

ILX Artist Ballot no #33 : Fron Witch Trials to Ersatz it's THE FALL (Albums, Tracks, heck why not Members also?)

Bee OK, Saturday, 2 July 2016 01:46 (seven years ago) link

xp check out the demos on the Morning Glory remaster on Spotify; so great.

piscesx, Saturday, 2 July 2016 01:58 (seven years ago) link

How is Definitely Maybe not an option?

Frankie Teardrop Explodes (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 2 July 2016 02:05 (seven years ago) link

Nope=31. Will vote + will watch = 31. "Might vote" tips things in favor of Oasis poll. (I'm doing the statistical analysis while glenn is busy Canadifying things). I'll do "most blur-like Oasis voter" and "most Oasis-like blur voter" next week when I get my new calculator.

Mark G, Monday, 4 July 2016 06:59 (seven years ago) link

not sure what these results mean. i wanted 20 yes votes and fell under that mark. i think i will do it anyways...

Bee OK, Wednesday, 6 July 2016 01:00 (seven years ago) link

Yay.

Mark G, Wednesday, 6 July 2016 07:24 (seven years ago) link

If half of the 'maybe' votes do ballots, that's more than 20.
