good job everyone who voted and a hundred thanks to km for running it.
rad to see leee voting for that lil bach tune, ppl should check it out
diamond day is a tune where the absurdly precious tone works, she sings the song like it's a bubble she has to take great care not to burst. its oversensitive to the point of being totally enchanted in a childish way that puts me in mind of things like studio ghibli animations and the combination of its fragility, its incredible lightness & its casual, domestic, comforting intimacy has grown to feel more overwhelming the more I've listened to it and the older I've got. plus it feels like she's singing to herself which is always my favourite sort of singing

"It's Time to Party" was my #1, his whole career distilled into less than 2 minutes and an incredible song. 2 #1 votes couldn't get into it into the top 120 - sad!
― Vinnie, Saturday, 13 April 2019 00:21 (five years ago) link
oh no...:(
there was a frogbs vote (for 425 points!) for "Andrew WK - It's Time to Party (1:30)" - no periods in the W.K., so it didn't collate properly with "Andrew W.K. - It's Time to Party (1:30)", which received 3 votes. so it should have ended up with 1287 points, which would have put it all the way up at #82!
very sorry, andrew w.k. voters. data sleuths will probably comb through the long tail of the results and find more mistakes like that on my end. i did do data cleanup and fixed many things after the ballots were received, but i'm sure i missed some stuff, beyond andrew w.k. the whole copy and paste from the list thing is crucial

Also delighted that I wasn't completely alone with most of the tracks I nominated:
193 Johnny Hawksworth - Thames Television ident theme, c.1968-90 (0:07) 4270 The Moodists - Where the Trees Walk Downhill (1:40) 2278 Piero Umiliani - Mah nà mah nà (1:56) 2 359 Felt - I Will Die With My Head in Flames (1:34) 2
I should clearly have actively campaigned for this though:

Laurel Halo's "Holoday" would have been in my top 5, although even that wouldn't have placed in the top 120. glad to see its sole vote was a #1 though

If anyone didn’t find something new that could of been added to their top 50 then they might want to keep listening to the nominations. I was surprised with the amount of unique goodies in there, and I haven’t finished listening yet.

Quite interesting to look at the top rankings of the shorter songs:
Top Ten up to 1 minute (dominated by hardcore) 1. Delia Derbyshire - Doctor Who Opening Theme (39 second version) (0:39)2. Dead Kennedys - Nazi Punks Fuck Off (0:58) 3. Bikini Kill - In Accordance to Natural Law (0:28)4. Napalm Death - You Suffer (0:02)5. Minor Threat - Straight Edge (0:46)6. Johnny Hawksworth - Thames Television ident theme, c.1968-90 (0:07)7. My Bloody Valentine - Touched (0:56)8. Boards of Canada - Kaini Industries (1:00)9. Naked City - Demon Sanctuary (0:42)10. ABC - The Look of Love, Part 4 (0:59)
I was very surprised that no one else voted for Sonic Youth's brilliant, speedy version of "Nic Fit". The same goes for High Llamas epic beauty "Cuckoo Casino" which is my #1in this category.
Top Ten up to 90 seconds (dominated by indie) 1. "Bad Brains - Pay to Cum (original 7"" version) (1:30)"2. Delia Derbyshire - Doctor Who Opening Theme (39 second version) (0:39)3. Wire - Three Girl Rhumba (1:24)4. Pixies - Allison (1:17)5. Primal Scream - Velocity Girl (1:22)6. Bill Wells & Maher Shalal Baz - Duck (1:05)7. Vince Guaraldi - Linus and Lucy (Lost Cues, Vol. 2 version) (1:20)8. Crass - Do They Owe Us A Living? (1:24)9. Jorge Ben - Balanca Pema (1:29)10. De La Soul - Transmitting Live from Mars (1:12)
I had four songs from this category in my top ten (plus "Cuckoo Casino") . For three of them I was the lonely voter (Miles Davis - Mystery, Jansch/Renbourne - East Wind and Kolbe/Illenberger - Opening) and for This Mortal Coils "The Lacemaker II" someone joined me. I am baffled that my taste seems so special.

(dominated by hardcore)
this is a bit of a stretch, 2 out of 10 is hardly domination! might as well say dominated by TV themes
never really liked Sonic Youth's cover of Nic Fit, one of the weaker songs for me on Dirty. tbh don't really like the original that much either
― Colonel Poo, Saturday, 13 April 2019 22:30 (five years ago) link
you are right, i should have said hardcore/punk to include the dead kennedys, crass and bikini kill. my notion of hardcore is quite wide - basically fast and loud music with shouting and basic hooks - as it is not really my fave style.

I'm finally getting around to watching season 5 of Silicon Valley and "You Suffer" makes a cameo in episode 3, which aired a year before this poll. Didn't see "silicon" show up anywhere in this thread so I figure there might be a few other people as surprised as I was.
