Do You Remember The First Poll? - ILM Artist Poll #11 - PULP - Results Thread!

high five, Gukbe!
I couldn't think of a way to post a real 'cover version' without maybe a Youtube, so I hoped Bad Impersonators would suffice.

#31 - BAD COVER VERSION - 8 votes, 150 points

I thought the Madonna was actually Madonna!

I would have gone with this for "Sunrise":

The visual hints are a cool twist on the usual results thread, FFM.

coming fast now. #29 is "Wickerman"?

Already 6 songs I voted for have placed - I really thought I was veering far from the most liked/popular....

I split my votes fairly evenly across the 7 albums

Is that from a movie, Gukbe? I don't know it :(

Wickerman indeed.. being Canadian, is it sort of like a Burning Man thing? Never heard of it 'til I image-searched, to be honest!

#29 - WICKERMAN - Seven votes, one #1, 161 points

Sunrise the first of mine to place and I'm pretty sure most of them will.

Really didn't get into WLL until hearing them play a few tracks from it this summer. Probably prefer it to HnH at the moment though.

My choices are all pretty obvious.

Alexis (there's one way to solve your name confusion!) Wickerman is a movie!

Oh and also apparently: A wicker man was a large wicker statue of a human used by the ancient Druids (priests of Celtic paganism) for human sacrifice by burning it in effigy, according to Julius Caesar in his Commentarii de Bello Gallico (Commentary on the Gallic War).[1][2] In modern times the figure has been adopted for festivals as part of some neopagan-themed ceremonies, notably without the human sacrifice element.[3]

^^^ learned

Yeah! It was quick googling so I thought maybe there is a Wickerman festival like there is a Burning Man one.. I have a headache, no learnin' for me! I did see a few movie stills too.

(Good call on the Alexis thing! It's just so formal.. I prefer to fuck with everyone's minds)

do we need a new clue?

y

How about Cucumber? ;p

Total aside but in line with the last post - when you designed my DLand page you had changed the pw to Alexis and when you sent it back to me I never bothered changing it. Eventually, because I was so used to typing it for DLand your name became my default password for email and several other accounts for years afterwards. Hmmmm. That's not as creepy as it might sound. OK back to Pulp - sorry!

hahahahaha! No, that is awesome! I forgot that I used to do that. Man.. so many accounts could have been breached if anyone thought to try "their" password on other sites I designed!

New clue for #28

http://fromstein.com/issy05/pics/images/Dogs%20Humping.jpg

so glad that's in my permanent GIS history btw

Well that could be *any* Pulp track.

hahahahahahahaha. Touche! This song lends itself either to REALLY obvious or really obscure. So I'm gonna go obscure.

"Mis-Shapes"? lol

okay I think I found *the clue*

#28

Not "Dogs are everywhere" then.

Nope. Three clues to consider now! These are pictoral representations of lyrics, as the song title is too specific IMO

Sheffield: Sex City!

YES! I was just about to post a picture *of* Sheffield! phew.

#28 - SHEFFIELD: SEX CITY - 8 votes, 166 points

coupla easier ones coming up

Delivered me from his 'n' herrrrrrrs!

If I were GISing at home that would've been a picture of people doing it again.... sideways.

#27 - HIS N HERS - 7 votes, one #1, 173 points

#26

I feel like a dead bird on pavement could be any number of Pulp classics, but I'm going to guess "Trees"

Hah! Well, you guessed correctly. Never got into this song. :(

#26 - THE TREES - Seven votes, one #1, 174 points (edged His n Hers by ONE POINT!)

#25

http://i43.tinypic.com/e0mzap.jpg

The Trees was my NUMBER ONE <3

Shame I was the only one :-/

It's a great one! Even when I've tired of Pulp for periods, I've always enjoyed having "Trees" on a playlist.

Yeah I'm stumped.

Can it be blue girls?

That was #36

Okay I am aiming to get to #20 today and then leave the rest for tomorrow. I'll give a few more minutes of suspense here..

I give another clue for #25

http://thumbs.dreamstime.com/thumblarge_514/1277162367t1FswQ.jpg

Is it O.U ?

"She's at the station because she's leaving town"

nailed it!

#25 - O.U. (GONE, GONE) - Eight votes, one #1, 189 points

I think that this was my #1 but as I said, I stupidly typed my list right into the spreadsheet and thus lost my own rankings forever once I'd sorted it :P

Does anyone know what the title means? O.U.? I don't think I ever figured that out.
