I think I voted for the Portishead track
― Boring Sign In Name (Herman G. Neuname), Friday, 6 February 2009 21:32 (fifteen years ago) link
Actually, listening to it now, it's really really quite a beautiful song, if maybe a LITTLE peremptory for my personal inclinations.
Brainwasher, I'd say the 2nd album actually has some really good songs, and is better than the 1st (if not the EP).

o_O & "The Rip" with placing so high, esp. above "Machine Gun," but I'll take it!
― Ricky Apples (Pillbox), Friday, 6 February 2009 21:32 (fifteen years ago) link
(it being The Rip)
ok, yeah, this is sounding so beautiful on these headphones...

Its sorta like the boy version of that Scarlett Johannson album,
joeks, although I really loved that album.
― Plaxico (I know, right?), Friday, 6 February 2009 21:33 (fifteen years ago) link
I can't really fault The Rip placing in the top five, although I completely overlooked it as well. Just listened to it again and it is beyond gorgeous.

Scarlett album better place...
― Someone Still Loves You Evan and Jaron (Tape Store), Friday, 6 February 2009 21:36 (fifteen years ago) link
I think The Rip becomes even more stunning if you haven't heard it for a while, as a few of us have just discovered.
― Robin van Injury (country matters), Friday, 6 February 2009 21:37 (fifteen years ago) link
so the portishead album is gonna be number one then

no new amerykah is
― The Brainwasher, Friday, 6 February 2009 21:39 (fifteen years ago) link
If I'd thought about this tactically, I'd have put Third wayyyy higher up my poll tbh
― Robin van Injury (country matters), Friday, 6 February 2009 21:40 (fifteen years ago) link
If The-Dream is number one, ILX has my heart
― Someone Still Loves You Evan and Jaron (Tape Store), Friday, 6 February 2009 21:40 (fifteen years ago) link
ha, it might place depending on who voted
― your infinity in you is mad lifted (J0rdan S.), Friday, 6 February 2009 21:41 (fifteen years ago) link
Yes, that's quite beautiful. I'm surprised it placed so high, it's not the kind of track you usually get a consensus around.
― Ismael Klata, Friday, 6 February 2009 21:42 (fifteen years ago) link
my ballot even

I've never heard the portishead album

I forgot to vote
― The Brainwasher, Friday, 6 February 2009 21:43 (fifteen years ago) link
i always forget that people liked other songs on that album more than 'machine gun'
― call all destroyer, Friday, 6 February 2009 21:43 (fifteen years ago) link
musically can i still vote plz
yes, yes, yes, Brainwasher should vote!
― Someone Still Loves You Evan and Jaron (Tape Store), Friday, 6 February 2009 21:44 (fifteen years ago) link
you always forget to vote
― danzig, Friday, 6 February 2009 21:44 (fifteen years ago) link
lol @ Brainwasher not voting but thinking "Damaged" could still place
― some dude, Friday, 6 February 2009 21:45 (fifteen years ago) link
The-Dream will place, I can feel it.
― lou, Friday, 6 February 2009 21:45 (fifteen years ago) link
hold on - place in singles????
― your infinity in you is mad lifted (J0rdan S.), Friday, 6 February 2009 21:46 (fifteen years ago) link
Albums.
― lou, Friday, 6 February 2009 21:46 (fifteen years ago) link
oh
not even nommed in the singles although I would've given Falsetto a very high vote if it were.
― danzig, Friday, 6 February 2009 21:47 (fifteen years ago) link
oh, there's no doubt it will PLACE in albums, i just want it top ten.
― Someone Still Loves You Evan and Jaron (Tape Store), Friday, 6 February 2009 21:47 (fifteen years ago) link
I'm liking The Rip more on each run through. Also, I can't think of anything else to compare it to. I'm hearing snatches of Joan Baez, Kraftwerk and Philip Glass in there, but it's not exactly derivative
― Ismael Klata, Friday, 6 February 2009 21:49 (fifteen years ago) link
It sounds like Broadcast

note = vote
Was "Shawty Is Da Sh*!" nominated, or is that considered 2007?

I'm listening to the Aeroplane version of Paris for the first time and loving it but... this is more of a cover version than a remix isn't it?

Did most of the people who voted the original really mean the remix. I heard it for the first time yesterday after playing the remix to death. It really is a pile of shit though.
― Plaxico (I know, right?), Friday, 6 February 2009 22:20 (fifteen years ago) link
I actually prefer the original, but I like busy percussion.
― Johnny Fever, Friday, 6 February 2009 22:21 (fifteen years ago) link
I like this, never crossed my mind to vote for it, though. Sounds a bit like Sophie Ellis Bextor to mine ears
― Ismael Klata, Friday, 6 February 2009 22:22 (fifteen years ago) link
The original really makes me wanna punch that guy. Also, the girl on the remix is great, and probably relevant to whatever people were saying about Air France.
― Plaxico (I know, right?), Friday, 6 February 2009 22:23 (fifteen years ago) link
both are great but i like the og better - the rush in the chorus is so great
