does it mean that spain is like a giant tooth full of grapes just dangling off the end of europe ? or is it more like Land of the Purple-Toothed Winos ?

Sooo...due to uh "IT issues" I think we're going to extend the deadline by a week.

Official announcement to follow
Spotify is blocked by local government where I am but I had cause to be in a neighbouring canton where they had spotify booths in many of the local bars, I thought I would give the playlist a cursory listen because playlists of huge numbers of songs is a minor form of incarceration. I started with something called cosmic sheldrake, don't know if i was unlucky but this is truly absymal, I've worked in an office before, I've heard that Imagine Dragon song that sounds like fascism about making packed lunches. And mates, this garbage is the lute playing cousin of that, the kind of compadre that is singing about a local river while making plans to pollute it with toxic dye via a management company in his brothers name
No

Many xps- loanwords in Chinese don't usually get new characters, so something with the same sound is assigned. grape tooth = putao ya = Portugal, so not Spain, which would be xibanya, 'west class tooth,' yes this is a bit off topic now

"Vyrgin Island" off that Panama Keys release is excellent too

This would be great for me b/c the deadline coincides with both a house inspection and a funeral and I've been stressing about those instead of finishing my ballot. Poor priorities, I know.

I also appreciate this extension, it's been a very busy week

Thanks for the extension guys, I was starting to panic at getting my tracks ballot done, having spent many hours riffling through the spotify play list (thanks forks...). I didn't manage to get many nominations in this year, but while I'm here let me lobby for Julia Jacklin, in particular 'Head Alone', if not just for the delight of the bridge.

Hello seandalai: When I voted, I chose "mixed" ballot, then stupidly forgot to put the extra line break between the ranked and unranked lists. I'm fine with just ranking the whole thing if that's easier.
― beard papa, Thursday, 17 January 2019 22:47 (five years ago) link
whew I was slamming together my ballots last minute style the extension is very welcome, ty!
― Frobisher, Thursday, 17 January 2019 23:32 (five years ago) link
if you haven't heard it yet, Sloppy Jane's 'Mindy' is one of the wildest songs I've heard in a while.
Thanks for this! I liked the song so much I streamed the album, and liked the album so much I bought it and have listened to it about four times in the last two days. If I get around to voting in this poll, it'll make my ballot.

It's official: voting will now end at Midnight PST on Friday, January 25th, 2019 (i.e. Saturday morning in the UK).
Can a friendly mod update the top of the thread?

If you vote again and post here, I'll go back and delete your first ballot.

Yay @ extension!1!

Well over a quarter of the youtube playlist is friendly and effusive, top marks to the authorities
― saer, Friday, 18 January 2019 07:56 (five years ago) link
Yay @ extension but also boo @ extension as I think I was almost done but now have an extra week to listen to more stuff and then try and work out what I'm going to have to axe to fit it in
― groovypanda, Friday, 18 January 2019 08:07 (five years ago) link

Would it be possible for me too to resubmit my ballot? I did it in a haste, and now I've realised I'd like to add and change a few things, if it's not too much of a hassle?
― Tuomas, Friday, 18 January 2019 11:47 (five years ago) link
Voted :)
― Frederik B, Friday, 18 January 2019 13:10 (five years ago) link
Think this might be another year where I'm the only one who voted for my #1 track :(

I'm glad I'm not the only one who likes it! I found it through a very unlikely acquaintance's sharing it and got kind of obsessed with a few of the songs on there, but I have no idea how he found it or how popular it is or much of anything about them honestly. They've never been mentioned on ILX apparently? I thought I might have been taking crazy pills because virtually everything else ever recorded has been mentioned on here at some point!!
― suggest boban (Will M.), Friday, 18 January 2019 19:17 (five years ago) link
There are 7 of the 9 songs from the robyn album nominated but the only one i like isn't.
The two best songs on the album are the ones that didn't get nominated smfh
― billstevejim, Friday, 18 January 2019 19:37 (five years ago) link
Yay on the extension! There were four pretty big albums that I've yet to check out that I wanted to get at least one listen in before voting.
― Rod Steel (musicfanatic), Friday, 18 January 2019 20:16 (five years ago) link
Maggie Rogers - Fallingwater
i’m glad someone nominated this bc it’s prob gonna sneak onto my ballot, the album made me like it even more

having your #1 track fail to place builds character (also indicates lack of shit taste)
