ILM'S TOP 77 TRACKS of 2011 (Los resultados!)

tho a tie would be a hilarious option!

hahahaha my turning in a track ballot secured the win for 212 over that videogames horseshit

whooooooa

212 was my No.2 of the year.

I actually would have voted for Video Games had the stellar Club Clique remix been nominated. The original is no great shakes. Could see myself voting for Born To Die this year, though.

Yay, after a fairly barren 20 for me I voted for the top 2. 212 was a late addition for me so glad it won.

phew

paging deej and whiney - their hatred of az banks was HILARIOUS

secret of "212": the whole "ayooo" section acts as a massive break, meaning that WHATCHU GON DO WHEN I APPEAR absolutely slays on a dancefloor

also u&k: derrick carter's 212 vs bhq bootleg: http://soundcloud.com/blucu/212-vs-bhq-mp3

can someone whos good at photoshop switch their faces in those jpgs plz

lol i'd have given AZ a bunch more points than LDR

my number 1 didn't place at all. good results btw. Snooze is great. I voted for Lana, though it was pretty low on my ballot iirc. Good song.

I think I prefer A$$ to Super Bass personally.

Hooray, Azealia FTW.

didn't vote for either of these, but 212 is a worthy winner

4 points! Hahaha 212 is the only song of the top 4 that I voted for and I placed it like #20. That's crazy!

yes, thanks!
a great list, and a uniquely ilx one

wow, gaga's highest ranking was 99

6 more voters for LDR though, wow.

so happy that i can pretty much rap along to all of 212 now :)

GREAT JOB JOHNNY FEVER

So glad LDR didn't top it. Though I'm not invested much in any of them, my preferred order would have been Super Bass -> Countdown -> 212 -> Video Games.

i guess i will now listen to 212 for the first time ever

yeah i thought 'video games' was a tongue in cheek subversion of the trope you're talking about

I hear ZERO subversion in this song

like seriously, the whole song is her being all "I have on your favorite dress and your favorite perfume, now parade me around like a trophy"

That's not even getting into the soporific music

I'm glad to see my #1 for Disco en Paradiso was better spent than it would have been on Super Bass.

xp the music is actually the big problem, it's really boring

endless lols @ "marvin's room" placings: jojo #13, drake #97. FUCK YOU DRAKE :D

"212" is fun but honestly I would rather listen to the tracks AB picks as backing material rather than the songs she puts over them

Argh, I almost missed the link to the stats! STATS STATS STATS.

that was it?

my preferred order would have been Super Bass -> Countdown -> 212 -> Video Games.

Me too, although I didn't vote for Countdown due to voting for 4. HM.

I like Video Games a lot, though I'm pretty cool on the whole Cult of Lana thing. Having listened to her album now, it cements my opinion that she really only had that one really good song in her. Glad it was #2 here. She was a big part of 2011's second half, for better or for worse.

Did I mention that I LOVE the backing track for Video Games? Because I do. It's not boring. It's not soporific. It's gorgeous.

the 2 people who made "born this way" their #1 need to show themselves right now. is that serious?!

Thanks johnny fever! Highly entertaining and inspirational countdown.

superbass got jobbed

k, someone start the track ballots thread

Thanks JF. Thanks, sean. Great job.

Great work JF.

Oh yeah and thanks seandalai too!

I'm going to be geeking out over this spreadsheet for a while now since it mostly looks like work.

I noticed that Spice by Perfume is on there twice, once at 152 and once at 194. mostly noticed because I was surprised that anyone else voted for it.

thanks JF, hero :)

who do i email to get my ballots sent to me? i forgot to save :(

oh yeah, thanks Johnny F & seandalai once again for a fun poll!

thanks johnny and sean!

Oh yeah and thanks seandalai too!

This!

2011 Tracks Poll: Conclave of Stats, Ballots and Debriefing

sigh. Delilah, Jhene and Purity Ring all within spitting distance of the top 77 but not quite.

Great job Johnny Fever and seandalai!

I'll have to check what's up with Perfume - that really shouldn't be possible.

had i voted i would've put it at #1 or #2

ah well

Thanks to Johnny Fever and seandalai, this has been great!

derrick carters refix of that azalea banks is really good don't like the original that much

I just checked for other double entries and it appears that Spice is the only one where there it an exact match on the item name. Does this mean that it is actually #51? I'm going to go ahead and believe that it is.

Bummer that "Baby, Let Me Finish" finished so low (only one other voter besides me, looks like) -- I thought it'd be catnip to this crowd.

I voted for Baby, Let Me Finish!
