Great list! I would have put lots of these on any "best ever" list, too. It's Love Come Down for me, but Sweet Love and tears for fears are close behind

regardless of how good it is i hope i don't have to endure Teardrops ever again. put Teardrops in a locked box with several of the most famous chic songs and bury them in an unknown location.

voted Mariah Carey. there was a time when i saw that music video every morning before school. to this day the wordless "do-do-do dum do-do-do-da-do-da-dum" bit randomly pops into my mind, especially around moments of wordless joy

Best poll ever.

I ended up voting for Patrice Rushen but could have easily gone for The Blue Nile, Fleetwood Mac, Saint Etienne, Evelyn King, Womack & Womack, Luomo, John Martyn, Underworld or about half a dozen others.

Brad, what did you vote for?

hoooyaaargh it's me satan (voodoo chili), Saturday, 20 January 2018 03:18 (six years ago) link

the first four songs listed with zero votes were all robbed tbh

In a way I’m glad I missed this poll because so much of it lines up with my tastes too closely to pick

Solitary vote for Summertime in England! Some people shouldn't be allowed to have ears.
