ILM's 2010s Tracks & Albums Decade Poll / VOTING THREAD

I did notice "Horchata" and "Cousins" by Vampire Weekend on the list, and those are arguably 2009 songs, as they were released as singles in October and November respectively. Though I suppose they could get by on Year of Impact rules. Does feel a little odd to see them on there, and then on the other end of the decade see "Don't Start Now".

Thanks ufo - really looking fwd to this.

Typo in the tracks spreadsheet: Modern Kosmology - 'C'est Le Vent' should be by Modern Cosmology - my error when nominating, sorry.

I thought that Broken Flowers by Danny L Harle had been nommed as a track but apparently this was an album! Possibly will manage to find 50 other tracks to vote for despite this major setback

Hi there! I think that this may have affected the spelling of Jane Weaver - Modern Kosmology which is spelled in the spreadsheet as "Modern Cosmology". Could the Jane Weaver album be given its proper spelling in the albums list?

People on ILM were lining up to listen to Donda 3. You sure they're going to hold his state of political confusion against albums that were released years earlier and critically lauded for their mad egocentric genius ? Also the Big Boi still sounds fresh and fun, it takes Daddy Fat Sax three seconds to put a smile on my face.

Donda live from a piece of lawn*.

Could the Jane Weaver album be given its proper spelling in the albums list?

fixed, sorry

i think someone brought them both up before and i fixed the wrong one by accident

Thank you!

I mean, you can’t blame Musk either for Grimes.

I’ll let someone else tackle Grimes

My point was – dislike Kanye for whatever reasons you like, but “was in a relationship with a rich person” seems like it wouldn’t make the top 5

ILXors, assume your responsibilities of citizenship
Vote like you understand someone died for your right to do so
Good #1s are determined by people who SHOW UP
Silence is betrayal
Get mad and vote

ah man, just realised voting closes today - i thought it was going to be over the weekend. I'll try to whip up my ballots real quick!

no it's extended until end of monday, gmt

the deadline has been extended to to 11:59pm GMT on Monday 8th August (as of two days ago)

LOL Nabozo.

Voted just now. I hadn't really been much of a "yearly list" sort of person for much of the decade, so largely started from scratch. The noms made for a good 6-ish weeks of listening!

oh phew, thanks ufo! will def get something in by tomorrow-ish

Glad to see it was extended. i've spent this whole poll thinking "nah, i shouldn't vote, there's no way i could feel confident enough in any ballot i put together"... but I've had a total turnaround since then. I've absolutely gotta vote, even if i end up doing an unranked ballot.

Ballot submitted!

ufo, my power blipped out at the moment that I pressed send on my ballot. So I went back, filled everything out, and tried sending again. I hope I didn't accidentally send duplicate ballots.

a vote that was simply too powerful

i got your ballot just fine peace, man

Albums ballot in. Working on Tracks tomorrow.

VOTE MOTHERFUCKERS!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I will Axl, I will.

about 2 and a half days left so please get your ballots in everyone! there's still a ton of volatility in the results and pretty much anything has a chance of placing so every vote counts.

this playlist is really very long

so was the decade

Voted for 50 tracks and 1 album (I’ll understand if the album ballot is disqualified)

i'd really prefer a minimum ballot size of say, five or ten, but i forgot to specify that so i'm not going to disallow it

Will something be required to receive a minimum of, say, two votes in order to place in the results?

Working on tracks now. YOU FREAKS DIDN'T NOMINATE K. MICHELLE'S LOVE 'EM ALL????

I'm putting it on my ballot anyway.

so many things not nominated. Like I think there was like less than 20 house/tech songs nommed lol. can’t belief I missed Helena Hauff.

wasn’t going to nominate a bunch of 12s and weird tapes nobody but me and maybe one other poster would vote for

but I guess I thought there were more techno fans here… times change I guess

I realize those last three posts are rather incongruent

ufo, you're honoring the ballot edits right? I went back in and added tracks to the album ballot I submitted last night (plus one more album I forgot to vote for).

If not, I'll submit a new one from scratch.

>wasn’t going to nominate a bunch of 12s and weird tapes nobody but me and maybe one other poster would vote for

most of my nominations i am assuming i am on my own for. i'd be ecstatic if even one ilm'er agreed with any of my fav picks!

yeah ballot edits will be included

it is done

voted! at least I think it went through? the form acted a bit odd

i received your ballot just fine kraudive

Voted, 25 tracks. Pretty minimal, I know, but those were the songs among the nominees I really loved (would have loved more if I'd had time to listen to the playlist more, I'm certain.)

voted late, from a 1st timer -- i thought the deadline was august 9th for some reason. sorry if i did it wrong!

v much enjoyed the playlists; thanks for organizing it all

the deadline was extended, i'll post that again so no one misses it

the deadline has been extended to to 11:59pm GMT on Monday 8th August

BST?

UTC+0 not UTC+1

but in practice there'll likely be some leeway for very last minute ballots in the hour or two after the deadline. no guarantees though!

just under a day left to vote!

I've been thinking about tracks, I didn't nominate any so I can’t complain, but

I would have voted for Beep Dee - From Above, an amazing track that would have been high on my list

voted for Amen Dunes’ Believe as a stand-in for Miki Dora, which is his best track hands down imo but was not nominated

I like Duke Dumont’s I Got U as much as Need U (100%)

have a lot of other thoughts

finally voted, this one was hard to complete because of real life but i had to do it somehow.

Beyonce's Drunk In Love is so astonishingly great, as is the video. It was her best track and it wasn't nominated

oh I see it was nominated, damn. I wish I had voted for it

You can edit your ballot.

should I just submit another tracks ballot? I already see some mistakes in mine
