ILM's Top 77 Tracks of 2014

well played

lol classic deej/ship :-)

you dont actually care!

Cant get my head around the idea of strategic voting. I didnt want anything either in or out of the list, thought it should be whatever it was going to be

OTM

FYI the appropriate response to being called out on how you voted is *Slim Jimmy voice* I like what I like!

otm

It would be better in the Macho Man snap into a Slim Jim voice

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say the chances of either of you throwing some shit you heard thanks to the eoy nom list for the first time 3 weeks ago in your top tracks ballot is about 0% so uh maybe I won't.

You assume I care how anyone else votes. ;)

(Also I probably heard the Tef Poe track I voted for about 3 weeks before voting. Same with "Stoner" last year.)

For anyone who is looking for the playlist and doesn't wanna scroll up and look for it:

It would be great if poll results were edited into the tops of all the EOY poll threads, saving me hours of opening up the whole thing and searching for the rundown in among 578 clusterfucks. mods how easy is this?

very, tbh

It would be great if poll results were edited into the tops of all the EOY poll threads

all ballot poll threads too, as long as we're on the subject.

There's a link at the top of the stats thread.

You could meet somebody who really loves you.

Did Word Crimes get any love whatsoever?

zero Yankovic votes in the tracks poll. i voted for Mandatory Fun in teh albums poll, though.

'No Type' sounded really familiar to me, so I worked out it was very similar to an Autechre track, 'nodezsh', from 2013. I played them over each other for fun and it's true:

nodezsh vs No Type

lol awesome

huh

Sorry, Weird Al.

O___O

Yeah that was terrible, sorry.

ha no i thought it tremendous tbh but now i'll probs never listen to them again

i had a vision of them draped not in monks' robes, but in big fleshy folds of skin instead, and making this huge squishy sucking vortex of sound

I had "Word Crimes" as #25 in my ballot, was that not counted?

I looked at the results table, and "Word Crimes" got 4 votes/72 points. Some Dude wrong!

ah yeah, my bad. i think i underestimated how long it took my browser to load the full results spreadsheet.

"Word Crimes" was my #2 for all the good it did.

I get it now!

list of ex-lovers
listof ex-lovers
stofex-lovers
Starbucks lovers

got a long li-starbucks lovers

like, wtf how do you even mishear that

it's like the katy b arrogance/africans common mishearing. my ears have never ever once done that! in this case i was immediately struck on first hearing that "got a long list of ex-lovers" was a brilliant and witty lyric for taylor swift to write and i don't even understand the desire for it to be anything else

I always thought the line was "Go along you Starbucks lovers."

I thought that line went "I will rip your fucking heart out and eat it in front of you, lover"

got a lotta custos lovers

i never fail to hear starbucks lovers

liza tarbuck's lover

I heard it as "All the lonely starbucks lovers" but assumed she was really saying "starcrossed" in a weird way until it was cleared up itt.

Sounds like "All the lonely Starbucks lovers, they'll tell you I'm insane."

Or like "Gotta love these Starbucks lovers"

My as well go into partnership with Starbucks. It's what she sings.

i never fail to hear starbucks lovers

love that chicken at starbucks

lotta lonely starbucks lovers

it really is a bummer that the rest of schoolboy q's 2014 tracks suffered from vote-splitting
