lol yesssss!

Ahhhhh!

Totally misread that as BLUE RODEO at first.

NB: i've built out the playlist for this and for the album list for the top 177 winners and will update fully when we hit the end of the countdown.
Sign o' the times alert: less than 3% of the top 177 singles/albums aren't on the service

lmao I would have died xp

ah lol this thing

fuck i love this so much

lmao yesss

Lol, I can never work out if this is infuriatingly good or infuriatingly bad. Think I plumped for the former in the end but it didn't make my list. I mean, it is very silly and I could see it getting on anyone's nerves if it caught them on the wrong day but in the right context it's great.

every time i've listened to this i've been unsure quite what to make of it until halfway through when i realise it rules after all

haha this is charmingly daft but you basically voted Cotton Eye Joe 2017 into the traxpoll

ridiculous catchy though. Can't remember who it was on my Facebook feed who summed it up as 'good, but it's a bit Dreadzone, innit?'

sigh, i wonder tho if this is just because nobody bothers checking stuff out if it's not on spotify

yeah that's me

you basically voted Cotton Eye Joe 2017 into the traxpoll

actual lol

A few number 1's shown up already, including mine (Tornado Wallace). Knew the first time I heard it back in the spring nothing would top it. Spotify confirms it's my most played track of the year too

i hate this, yes, (dl try harder) but i also think there's just.. generally more that's accessible on streaming each year. k-pop for instance; every single i voted for this year is on spotify which was extremely *not* the case in like, 2015

Nice bobbins showing so far. Avalon Emerson is the business but I voted for one of her remixes

ridiculous catchy though. Can't remember who it was on my Facebook feed who summed it up as 'good, but it's a bit Dreadzone, innit?'

more like mike oldfield in espadrilles

Wow what a stinker

Hadn't heard the Avalon Emerson or Minor Science tracks before and really like them.

Almost voted for Kelela but didn't, and completely forgot about Laurel Halo, oops.

<3 <3 <3 Kedr Livanskiy, though I think I voted for 'Fire & Water' instead, album placed high on my list so hopefully will see that there.

sigh, i wonder tho if this is just because nobody bothers checking stuff out if it's not on spotify

anyways, yes: this section of the countdown DOES have a "vibe" dunnit

There's basically just so much stuff that I do want to check out that is on spotify that it makes it easy to ignore the rest. In future polls, stuff that isn't on spotify should probably just get double the points automatically.

not in love with Blue Pedro as a song but I love the video!

TIE-67 TWICE "Likey" [158 points, 5 votes]
https://youtu.be/V2hlQkVJZhE

oh shit

And speaking things not on Spotify.

i've completely come around on this sensory overload jam

Ha, okay, Twice are not my K-bias group but nice to see them all the same.

Just catching up - WTF @ this Bullion track, guys?

The choreography in this video is spectacular in a very low key way.

voted for this, it's extremely catchy & i love the kitchen-sink production. at first the chorus was kinda underwhelming but it grew on me so much. lyrics are good too

oh sweet, this has made me optimistic for a few later appearances then :D

same :D

bb cream pa-pa-pa?

Choreography indeed great.

Likey is grrrreat

xps yeah we're already doing better than last year

Oh god (not in a good way).

these is bb creams

I....don't think I can rock with this chorus

I do like the rap though

the utterance at the end of each chorus phrase is somehow redolent of that in 'no way no way'

I think if Twice can make it then surely Blackpink will hit it this year? (Though tbf their nominated single is nowhere near as good as the '16 stuff)

i don't really understand why ppl think that blackpink song is good but i won't be mad if it places

ahem

Anyways, yes: this section of the countdown DOES have a "vibe" dunnit

Not anymore!
