Thanks Moka and ufo! Great rollout. I learned about a lot of stuff I had never heard before, or had forgotten.

Completely memory-holing Cee-Lo's "Fuck You" and Kanye West's "Mercy" so we could fit in more Carly Jeppers, good work
― marcel the shell with swag on (Whiney G. Weingarten)
Eh, I wouldn't find those placing to be any better or more interesting than CRJ.

Excellent work by the poll-runners, not so excellent work by the voters but you can't have everything. Tbh I like 'Inspector Norse' better than most of the other things so placed so by that metric it is indeed a very worthy winner, hoorah!

Really thought 'Blackened Cities' would make it.
Damnnn I voted for the wrong SOPHIE track. Would have loved BIPP to make it.
― tangenttangent, Friday, 19 August 2022 17:11 (one year ago) link
Thanks for the rundown! It was fun.
And 'Fuck You' placing would be baffling beyond belief.

Fun poll, thx ufo & Moka. As with the EOY polls, very little I voted for showed up. (I don’t really get the CRJ luv… oh wells)
― Panda bear, my gentle friend (morrisp), Friday, 19 August 2022 17:12 (one year ago) link
my main takeaway from this poll is that there are a huge amount of songs I thought came out eons ago, but really they came out last decade
― Muad'Doob (Moodles), Friday, 19 August 2022 17:13 (one year ago) link
Considering Boys is the 6th best song of the decade, it really fell from grace, huh?

I mean, it's not very good, I'm not sure why Whiney picked that one out.
Could I have pushed 2NE1 up into the main poll had I voted? We shall never be certain, alas...
― emil.y, Friday, 19 August 2022 17:18 (one year ago) link
Perfect top five. I still love all those songs so much. Inspector Norse was my number one and Run Away With Me was my number two. They both soundtracked so many happy moments in the last ten years.
Thanks so much to the poll runners for this. I feel emotional.

103. Toyboy & Robin - Jaded
Wow, I really overestimated the impact of this song had on this community. Was my #2. I've probably watched the video 100 time.
Norse was my #1. Just a joyous piece of music that I still play regularly. Happy it won.
The only other thing I have to say about this poll is that I'm glad KING did so well.
― beard papa, Friday, 19 August 2022 17:21 (one year ago) link
Yeah the amount of love for KING was surprising. I thought only 1 song of them would make it. Happy to be proven wrong. I would've thought The 1975 would be the ones with 3 songs instead based on previous eoy polls.

Thank you ufo and Moka, really enjoyed the rollout (and images) during a very busy week at work.
Surprised how much of the top 100 I actually like i.e. most of it. Great #1 too.

Thanks for the rollout. I need to spend more time with the playlist: I'm more of an albums person/rockist so I feel like I've probably heard most of these songs, but don't know them by name apart from a handful of inescapables. I voted for six songs that placed, including #1. Images look like a high fashion mag; everyone is beautiful.

can we make Moka's image for Inspector Norse the new borad description? I know it wasn't planned but what a punchline!
― rob, Friday, 19 August 2022 17:47 (one year ago) link
Sophisti-pop and tasteful disco seem to have taken over this poll even more than the usual ILM poll. The top 20 would make a killer playlist for a high-end retail shop, at least until Schoolboy Q shows up and starts rapping about cunnilingus.
Maybe it has to do with the decline of generalist music-review publications and the rise of curated streaming platforms, but the focus seems to have narrowed. Of course I'm as guilty as anyone of sticking to my knitting. If I had voted, my ballot would have reflected my own circumscribed universe of rock/metal/jazz/weirdness. Still I enjoyed seeing what people liked from the previous decade. Thanks to all who participated.
