ILM's 2018 End of Year Tracks & Albums Poll / VOTING THREAD

I can confirm the results are bonkers, also there’s a huge song that I thought was a top 20 contender and it is not even in the top 77.

Voted!

Did a write in for Jean Grae and Quelle Chris "Gold Orange Purple" and I suggest you do the same!

and voted! that is a great track but i voted for the album anyway so

Voted. No write-ins despite missing the noms because yeah it was a good year. Albums vv strong

Voted!

what level of weird are we talking like weirder than last year when somehow SZA completely missed the tracks poll and "Boys" won? that would be impressive

forks, when you start the rollout thread Monday morning, I beg of you to use the format we've used every year in the post-musically era...and to call them tracks instead of singles. 👍

*title format

voted! god that copy & paste job was hard!

i will totally call all those singles tracks. or vice versa. Wait, what am i doing?

Incoming ballots might change some things, but there are definitely some songs which I didn't expect to make it and which are a nice surprise imho... also yes, without revealing too much, if the ballots received today don't change the scores significantly on the bottom we might indeed have another SZA scenario this year.

I was legit angry last year that the final batch of ballots ruined Taylor Swift getting 78'ed.

Best way to avoid WTF WHO VOTED FOR THIS syndrome is to get your ballot in!

how many more hours to get ballots in?

Oops, I forgot to save my ballot.

‘Go to town’ is the doja cat banger imo

they’re both great

this year feels a lot more open in terms of possibilities than last year and if the results are even weirder than last year i'm looking forward to being surprised then

i'm really confident in my albums list but my songs list felt like a mess even as i was submitting it, and i've technically been working on it for a few months now lol

voted !

sent my ballot, phew!

voted, finally

If it was another situation similar SZA last year, I could see Robyn missing out due to split voting.

I just mean the titling format we've been using since j0rdan and I ran it in 2010: "ILM's Top 77 Tracks of 201x"

xp yeah Robyn or Mitski would be my guesses for being vote split to death

damn, i forgot to nominate wolf muller & niklas wandt's instrumentalmusik von der mitte der world

ooh just got my vote in.

voted

Okay third time's a charm. Submitted again and this one is my final tracks/albums ballot. whew!

Voted

How long have we got left? I had intentions to do my ballot last night but a friend turned up at my door with news, and now I have work this morning so trying to copy and paste on my phone is gonna be tricky...

I sent my votes in via post so as not have them intercepted by the local council

Voted

let's say you have an hour left to vote?

dunno if that helps anyone

Definitely helped - voted!

Sorry for waiting til the last minute :/

get on with it! haha

ok so having put together a singles list in post pub haste last night I awoke late this morning with a start and the realisation that I had somehow omitted my #2 track. I have resubmitted a tracks ballot, although I have no confidence that it matches my previous ballot, if you could see to it that my previous terrible error was corrected then my partner's scorn and disdain for my morning ballot panic will have all have been worth it

'ffs ogmor it's the big garden birdwatch'

I can confirm the results are bonkers, also there’s a huge song that I thought was a top 20 contender and it is not even in the top 77.

My initial guess was something featuring Dua Lipa or off the Black Panther soundtrack but on reflection probably the most likely outcome is ILM giving the hard 78 to 'This Is America'.

Kicking myself for having forgotten to vote for Homerton B.

Le voting est terminé!

Come back Monday for trax rollout

any cryptic forewarnings?

I was so far from understanding my own tracks ballot I gave it up and only submitted an album ballot. Rockist scum that I am.

Aww, I'm sure your tracks ballot could have helped a few things I like, lol
