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

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!

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

I left off "Stranger" at the last moment, but I don't think I would've given it enough points to make the top 77 anyway.

High five, Alex!

it wouldnt have taken many

also Still Sound was #81! I should've just kicked it a few notches higher!

omg omg 212 is amazing i've never heard it before!

If I'd voted "Stranger" would've been my #1 so sorry guyz :(

holy fuck this song!!!! thanks x

I mean, I didn't end up fitting in Stranger in either I think, so it's my fault also.

I need to double check.

Man bad to have to be out on site all morning, but thanks for doing all the hard work. The images were A+++++ and I've fallen for more than a handful of new to me songs.

i'm so excited to be excited by 212!

kind of lolling that the top 2 are not on Spotify, so it looks like "Super Bass" won

so many rong opinions itt but i think the worst of all, somehow managing to top lex's kid sister > lil wayne challop, is jordan saying motivation doesn't sound sexy

212 is on there

THANK YOU JOHHNY AND SEANDALAI! <3

Now, lets listen to this number one, as it's completely unknown to me

aw, too bad

tempted to put a karaoke version of "Video Games" in there, seeing as the one I listened to was virtually indistinguishable from the original

so many rong opinions itt but i think the worst of all, somehow managing to top lex's kid sister > lil wayne challop

i can't help it if you think wayne's verse on "motivation" is good

maybe it is you with the rong opinions! ever think about that?

better singer for one thing xpost

Wayne's verse is bad for sure, but I have to admit I dont like the way the drum beat changes when Kid Sis starts rapping; it feels v tacked on

I might not 'get' this whole Chicago Juke thing

xp
