yeah, first half is maybe the best. I love air except for the part where they sing "air". That part annoys me for some reason.― Sufjan Grafton, Tuesday, March 21, 2017 11:21 AM (twenty-four minutes ago) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink"air" can hurt you too― the raindrops and drop tops of lived, earned experience (BradNelson), Tuesday, March 21, 2017 11:46 AM (four hours ago) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink

One of the main reasons I quit doing ballot polls is because everybody stepped up their rollout images game past the point I wanted to keep up with.

my hope would be it's whoever did the images for the Kate Bush poll that is doing them this time, because those were remarkable and I'd gladly see more of the same.

I have listened to Cities at high volume one-hundred-and-fifty times this week while sorting this ballot and drinking too much coffee. I'm a little freaked out.

Voted. As I've only heard bits and pieces of the solo/side-project stuff decided to skip the ballot for that, and limited my albums ballot to TH albums only.

I skipped the solo tracks poll, but voted for both Bush of Ghosts and the Catherine Wheel above the final 3 TH albums.
