I liked the ordered 1-10, 11-25, 26-50 system that was proposed. Maybe it could be the default option ?Under-30 seconds top 5 sounds good, even if I really have no clue what to put there.

Yay! Thanks for extending it. Not voting for Now Mary would be plain wrong.

I've been a little bit unprepared for listening to the Spotify playlist, as I've been doing it mostly passively; a lot of times I have a vague liking to a song and then it's already over and I have to listen to it again to make sure I actually liked it!

The Juanita Rogers also has a longer version, both versions are on Sun Ra's The Second Stop Is Jupiter LP. It looks like there might be a longer version of 'The New Teller' on some comp, the 1:39 version is a bonus on the Jonathan Richman & The Modern Lovers S/T album.

We have gotten through the entire Spotify playlist so far. Number of tracks saved for further consideration: 115. Good job everyone I guess
― imago, Thursday, 28 February 2019 21:37 (five years ago) link
We must also remember that there are a lot of great songs not on Spotify, and come the campaigning thread, this may be a priority for some
― imago, Thursday, 28 February 2019 21:38 (five years ago) link
Is there a quick way to tell how many songs you've hearted in a playlist?
― Gaseous Clay (Leee), Thursday, 28 February 2019 21:58 (five years ago) link
not really, but you can go to your 'songs' list and then sort by date added and grab all the recent ones and throw in a separate playlist
