oh sorry I saw someone request we remove them but request was not approved... in that case there's probably loads in my list that should have The at the beginning, sorry

This 54 second edit of the Doctor Who theme (from the Troughton era) is a bit better than the 39 second edit as it just about squeezes in the middle eight (rubbish fade out though): https://open.spotify.com/track/5edEe378gFi6xxhveG7jAk?si=8LfLuGTQTF-RjnlsXoWeGA
Better still might've been the 1:20 Closing theme from the same era as the opening theme nominated: https://open.spotify.com/track/12eaGTQ57QR7E1XhAevAXo?si=CfpwBrWTTHaaPXEfa2aVkA

I hereby de-nominate my last five nominations (posted after Karl announced a final ten) but ONLY for Stevie D. They're all yours. Of course as a Dandies and Swirlies (I assume) fan you might opt to re-nominate a couple of 'em idk

Hey guys, this is Karl’s friend, logged into his account. He got fired because of this poll, earlier today, and he asked me to come on here and ask you all to send him money to cover his costs while he looks for a new one. He’s going to be busy out looking for a job for the next few weeks but you can just send the money to me and I will pass it onto him, as I see him just about every night.

Not sure if it makes a difference but Discogs has Elvis Costello & the Attractions - No Action at 1:58 on the old Rykodisc reissue CD (and 1:57 on the original LP). This would be in my top 10. https://www.discogs.com/Elvis-Costello-This-Years-Model/release/1493731🕸

Which version of "Do or Die" were you using, KM? The one from Guerrilla on Spotify is indeed 1:59

ok, thanks for all of the nominations list-cleaning! i made all of the little adjustments everyone mentioned above. removing all the doubles opened up several more spots, so i was able to almost all of the last wave of nominations to bring the total to the very satisfying and relevant number of 2019 songs. these were the songs i added:
Bill Wurtz - Alphabet Shuffle - 1:00The Chap - Partly People - 1:56The Dandy Warhols - The Dandy Warhols Love Almost Everyone - 1:54Swirlies - No Identifier - 1:45Teenage Fanclub - Hardcore / Ballad - 1:50Phoenix - School's Rules - 1:32Working for a Nuclear Free City - Euphone - 1:47Depeche Mode - Sometimes - 1:54Avi Buffalo - Two Cherished Understandings - 1:42Midnight Oil - Bakerman - 0:56Elvis Costello & the Attractions - No Action - 1:58 (this is above 2:00 on all versions on spotify, so i left it off there. but it's 1:58 on discogs)Super Furry Animals - Do or Die - 1:59Georgia Island Sea Singers - Hop Along, Let's Get Her - 1:04Alameda Riddlle - My Little Rooster - 1:49Hobart Smith - Last Chance - 1:30Thingy - Drugs - 1:36The Pipettes - It Hurts To See You Dance So Well - 1:53
The Pipettes one is interesting - on Spotify it's 2:09, and it's the version on We Are the Pipettes. It's legitimately that long. But I looked it up on Youtube and elsewhere, and the album version is indeed shorter, at 1:53. So i'm guessing they put a slightly different/longer version on the U.S. version of the album? at any rate, i've added it to the nominations list, but not the spotify playlist.
