wow, lorelei got robbed. i left on,on,on,on off of my ballot because it always seems like the lesser cousin of lorelei.
no offense to people who have high-achieving cousins and feel as if they are somehow "less than" them in some ways

i know it's been discussed at length but what happens in genius of love at 4:10 is enough to ruin the song, permanently
i still put it on my ballot, in the way that jessie's parents on breaking bad fondly remember their son's life up through adolescence

genius of love at 4:10 in the SMS video whiney g posted, i mean.
yeah I agree, I had not seen that before
― Dan S, Wednesday, 29 March 2017 17:34 (seven years ago) link
I remember seeing SMS in the theater as a kid after wearing out the cassette version and being utterly perplexed and horrified by the Tom Tom Club segment. Still, I love the album version.
Will also say that the SMS version of What A Day That Was is wayyy better than the original.

I didn't submit a ballot, finally decided I couldn't quantify and rank all my favorite tracks, but it's been fun listening to all these today.

Can you explain this to me please? Bush of Ghosts was 1981, so I'm not understanding the description.

So is My Life's reputation as this ancestor of hip-hop sampling warranted? Was this thing really a touchstone?
― the Rain Man of nationalism. (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 29 March 2017 20:18 (seven years ago) link
It came out around the same time as Ant Rap so there's a bit of debate about which of these white guys invented hip-hop.

They had 8 studio albums and 2 live albums as a band. Even if 1 or 2 don't make this list, that doesn't leave many more slots.

I also liked Little Creatures when it came out, but lost interest in it a long time ago. I really related to Stay Up Late because my little brother had just been born around this time.

I revisited Naked for the first time in a long while when putting my ballot together. The last time I heard it was when that white-brick box set of all their studio albums came out in, what, 2008? It held up really well. Much better than Little Creatures.

hmm, not sure what happened as i was counting the number ones. i just checked and your number one is there and the points did count but somehow overlooked your number one vote. i hope that is the only mistake i make.

so I'm guessing either True Stories or one of the live albums won't make this list
― Dan S, Wednesday, 29 March 2017 23:15 (seven years ago) link
I didn't vote in albums, but Little Creatures probably is the catchiest album in their entire discography. "And She Was," "Stay Up Late," "Road to Nowhere," "Little Creatures"
