The ILX Readers Poll 2002 - RECORDS OF THE YEAR

― zebedeez, Sunday, 5 January 2003 14:35 (twenty-one years ago) link

I voted for the top 2 singles and two of the ones that got 3 votes. So, not as conformist as Martin but pretty square all the same.

damn, i thought rippin kittin was 01, otherwise i would have put it in my top 10 for 02

The original vinyl on Ladomat certainly was 01, but the international CD single release and the remixes 12" (X-Press-2, Tobi Neumann)were 02.

Was the point system only for albums then?

Point system was only for albums and films. For singles, you just named 10 in no particular order.

I thought it was 10 tracks rather than singles!

It was. And I was still the only person that voted for The Venue. Tssk.

― William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Sunday, 5 January 2003 16:23 (twenty-one years ago) link

Yes, i voted for a few non-singles also.

i dunno how or why, but sending in my singles list
i plain f o r g o t about "Work It"... a week later i woke up and
suddenly r e m e m b e r e d that i forgot
which now makes me suspect i'm maybe merely a character from that Bee Gees song

It came top anyway, so there is no tragedy.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Sunday, 5 January 2003 17:07 (twenty-one years ago) link

correct, Martin
no "tragedy"; more like "true confessions" & "my destiny"

1-THE RAPTURE "House of jealous lovers"

I only just heard that "Hands Around My Throat" 12" and it's terrific, and I'm not just saying that because of the Adult involvement.

these are really good lists! and they make ILx look as democratic and wide-ranging as it is at its best. Pazz & Jop is now my second-favorite music critics' poll! yay!
