I'd forgotten that a #1 gets 100 points because of the bigger ballot size, so I think there's still space to place for some things with a small group of really enthusiastic voters

Hahaha fuck I changed the title from Venice Bitch to Venice Beach.
Sorry Lana

wow surprised as Ain't It Fun never seemed as popular as Still Into You in all lists at the time. Loved the former on first listen while the latter always left me cold.
― nashwan, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:22 (one year ago) link
on the one hand, this is the War On Drugs surrogate. on the other, it is at least better than War On Drugs

"Ain't It Fun" became a top ten in America a year after the album, not uncommon twenty or thirty years ago but wau in 2014.
― Malevolent Arugula (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 19 August 2022 13:24 (one year ago) link
I believe "Ain't it Fun" got relatively high on other lists in 2014, when it actually became more of a hit, as opposed to the 2013 when the album was released. ILM just happened to be ahead of the curve on that one.
― MarkoP, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:25 (one year ago) link
I Still Prefer Still Into You but Ain't it Fun has its own kind of energy that explodes in the right setting

Funny, I'm the opposite. They're a bit the same song tbh, so go figure.

Do we prefer the radio mix of "Ain't It Fun"?
― Malevolent Arugula (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 19 August 2022 13:31 (one year ago) link
here it is. such a banger
― imago, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:32 (one year ago) link
Too high
― Nabozo, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:33 (one year ago) link
I prefer the album mix because that's what I was always used to.

― link.exposing.politically (Camaraderie at Arms Length)
God damn, I really should have voted.
I'm definitely feeling very 'blah' about the tracks in here but I shouldn't complain because I didn't participate. But it does feel all kind of samey. I think I worked out why I'm against artist caps for year-end polls but would be for it here, and that's because EoY I want to be a fully accurate portrayal of what people listened to, whereas in this one I'd like more of a "this is cool stuff that happened within the decade" overview.
― emil.y, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:33 (one year ago) link
Ain't It Fun is one of the songs that made Paramore become one of my favourite bands. We even named our daughter Hayley last year due to how obsessed we were with those last two albums.
Surprised that Venice Bitch beat Video Games.
― kitchen person, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:33 (one year ago) link
I voted for Venice Bitch, not surprised to see it much higher than Video Games, it has more long term appeal
― silverfish, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:40 (one year ago) link
You didn’t vote emily? Really wanted to see your ballot I always find great stuff in your eoy ballots.

LOL
Didn't "Proof" also do very well (win?) the album poll of Paramore? Always been my favorite track but "Ain't It Fun" and "Still Into You" are better singles choices. The coda of "Ain't It Fun" is a true scream-it-from-the-car moment of joy.
― Indexed, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:42 (one year ago) link
Surely the greatest use of a Flexatone in music, this. I have one at home. I use it to annoy guests
― imago, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:42 (one year ago) link
No, I nominated two albums but then couldn't muster up the energy to participate any further! Just finding everything very difficult at the moment.

How do you get the guests to enter your home imago

I play ILM poll rundowns out of the window very loudly

And then the door closes, the playlist shifts, and you have your flexatone in your hand and a smirk on your face, got it :)

Pretty much. By the time they're inside, the song playing is...

The recent peoples_pop poll recently made me vote for Accelerate but not this. Now you're saying people voted for this and not Accelerate? You cannot, cannot have one without the other! (I voted Delirious)
― imago, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:50 (one year ago) link
I voted for Delirious too, which is the standout track from this album for me. I wonder if it will also show up.
― silverfish, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:52 (one year ago) link
"This is the kind of love that never goes out of style"
My number three.

I mean, this is incredible music ofc lol, but the segue. The segue!
― imago, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:53 (one year ago) link
Would have voted Delirious, but in the end it felt too difficult picking between tracks on this album at all because they're all so good. Really feel like she is one of the most uniting forces across all ILM's taste.
― tangenttangent, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:53 (one year ago) link
Did not vote for this as I voted for Delirious instead.
― MarkoP, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:54 (one year ago) link
"Venice Bitch" was my #1. Luckily everyone was too busy talking about Paramore to make fun of it.
― Chris L, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:54 (one year ago) link
Susanne - sensational album, song, voice, melody maker, producer
― abcfsk, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:55 (one year ago) link
Venice Bitch is too good to dismiss out of hand, it rewards a full listen-through. Not every LDR song you can say that about ;)
― imago, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:57 (one year ago) link
xpost Yeah, I'd agree with that tangenttangent. Susanne and KING are the main two from the last year I can think of who unite almost everyone on here.
― kitchen person, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:57 (one year ago) link
Yes, KING as well - absolutely. Little controversy or dissent accompanying their placements in polls!
― tangenttangent, Friday, 19 August 2022 13:59 (one year ago) link
Add in Kendrick and that's an ideal 1-2-3 for next week
