It didn't get bounced back so I figured it must have went through. Thanks for the heads up, I'll resend it now. Let me know if it doesn't get through.
The noms actually covered what most of my picks would be. I could have used a couple more wildcards, but being a big fan of the WB years lots of that stuff made it. Even "Beat a Drum" which I didn't think was that popular. What is crazy to me about the lack of Accelerate stuff is that only 6 people bothered to vote in the poll, versus 18 people in the Around the Sun poll. I'd take all sorts of songs off Accelerate over "Leaving New York". Such as, "Supernatural Superserious", "Mr. Richards", "Horse to Water", or "I'm Gonna DJ". Even "Red Head Walking", a bonus track off the deluxe edition, which reminds me of the playful R.E.M. that we haven't heard since Monster.
I'm excited to see the results!

No way dude, "Leaving New York" is #1, just you wait and see. You don't need me to tell you now that nothing can compare.

I'll say this: The poll's "wildcard" option made me reevaluate R.E.M.'s early, unreleased material (stuff even before Chronic Town). What a fantastic, innovative band, way back when.

Forty minutes left to get your votes in! I have possibly hopeless notions of kicking off the countdown tomorrow; if not then, the next day for sure...

Keeping my fingers crossed for my wildcard "Worst Joke Ever" to make the list!!!
