Yo P&J, I'm really happy for you, Imma let you finish, but ILX had the greatest 2009 poll of all time! All time! (2009 ILX Trax Poll Results: TOP TEN TODAY)

where we started at ended up and restart again get your mind in the right position before it start again cuz when it DROPS

idk what else would be left? xp

Hm. Seems pretty low when you consider that it only got two more votes than Hey Playa.

Any chance of House of Flying Daggers showing up?

"House of Flying Daggers" hasn't appeared yet...

Beat me to it! xpost

and make a storm or make it rain make it hurricane
typhoons tycoons i assume delusions
illusions like mushrooms get it now or pretty soon
irradiated mushrooms'll irradiate entire rooms
go bananas baboons just STOP

I'm a little afraid for House of Flying Daggers' chances, though...

i voted for it i think, can't remember my ballot

i'm happy that we manged not to vote a 85th generation wu-tang single into the top 15 of a year end poll - of course i'll take the crow if it shows up but i'll already be drowning in my own tears

So... what's left overall?

My Girls
Stillness Is the Move
1901
Daniel
Two Weeks
Heads Will Roll
Lisztomania
Bad Romance
You Belong with Me
Fancy?
Surf Solar?
House of Flying Daggers?

Pretty sure about the first 9, reasonably sure about the last 3... and that leaves one missing from the top 13.

is it really gonna be that predictable?

i didn't think most of those had any real ilm concensus and the ppl who were reppin for them had higher priorities iirc

Probably so! xpost

probably, but i hope not -- i bet "you belong with me" wins

Lemonade?

party in the usa

Does Digidesign have any sort of traction here?

I think we'd better prepare to be disappointed how much consensus there is among P&J, Pfork, etc. and our poll. Groupthink is a very powerful thing and unfortunately, I can't see any of those first 9 tracks going top 10-20 in P&J/Pfork and then missing the top 50 of an ILM voter set that pays pretty consistent attention to those sites/polls, even if it's under the guise of bitching about them more often than not.

was "party in the usa" even nom'd?

lemonade is a good call i think

i'm still amazed that the dirty projectors somehow became a consensus indie band, i kind of ignored them for a few years after mildly liking the "getty address" album despite its lack of traditional pop hooks or anything catchy that would suggest a breakout album to come

Miley I can see getting left out.

"Digidesign" was on my ballot but it's not gonna place here. "Hyph Mngo" is pretty much the cutoff point for all things dubstep in 2009 polls, unfortunately.

i don't know about 'two weeks' and '1901' but otherwise those seem pretty unstoppable

bitte orca DNE getty address though xp

stephen's prognostication & analysis is probably right -- the only thing i could see happening here is a bit of inversion in the ordering, like "my girls" #9 and "you belong with me" at #1 or w/e

yeah "two weeks" won't place here

YOUR GRIZZLY BEAR IS NOT WELCOME HERE

was "party in the usa" even nom'd?

My nomination. :)

"party in the usa" was nommed and i voted for it would really love to see it place.

oh god the top 10 is going to be the worst section of the entire list

gotta love spending half the weekend on some wild ESOM conversation arc only for it to pop up at next place

there's a serious enough gucci contingent here where lemonade would not surprise me. I voted digidesign too! maybe there's hope.

is "birthday sex" a possibility?? or "he ain't wit me now (tho)"?

i have now given up hope on stush/shystie/ms dynamite/lady chann.

:(

i think there's too much fracturing in the gucci vote for a single to get this high (fwiw i didn't even vote for "lemonade", of the three gucci trax i voted for)

what about "best i ever had"?

hardy lol if "hellhole ratrace" places

It would really really REALLY make my day if Grizzly Bear was shut out of this poll entirely. I can sorta see it being left out; the problem is what's still around to replace it, in that case... not much?

Either way, Veckatimest is a lock for the albums poll.

Hyph Mngo would prob have been my #1 had I been around for the votin. Glad to see it place.

Also hope the top 10 isn't shit like it seems to be headed. Why would anyone vote you belong with me? no hate on taylor but that song isn't great.

i agree fuck a Grizzly Bear

to each his own, man

Ahab you are more nuts than the real ahab for that post

no jerk's gonna place

i deliberately didn't vote for trax off (most of) my favourite albums, in order to rep for trax with no albums - seems few other people took this course :(

would be really amazing if lemonade was the highest placing rap song, but i was expecting 9/10 to be like top 5 so.

Why would anyone vote you belong with me? no hate on taylor but that song isn't great.

Dunno, I think she has much better songs... and that's saying a lot because come the fuck on, it's Taylor Swift. I'll echo Dan here, I enjoy my pop music just fine but Taylor really isn't that compelling, and even if you were to make such a case, "You Belong" isn't by any means her calling card #1 quality song.

ilxor i think "russian roulette" is a possible addition to your list

In my dreams... that Rihanna album was so quickly forgotten by year's end, I highly doubt it will place.

I did vote for it myself, though!

also didn't people not like 'russian roulette'

I was hoping "The Fear" would chart. At this point, it seems unlikely :(

i neither disliked nor forgot rated r
