"Dear Ms. Power, please sound more like Adele" - Cat Power - Artist Poll #99 - VOTING THREAD

thanks for extending the deadline, leee. i will definitely vote, somehow totally forgot about it.

Bumping for the new week! Remember, new deadline is this Friday! Let's get some more ballots in plz.

ballot sent!

Got another ballot! Come on get a few more in!

I've sent ILX mails to a few people (akm, Gravel, kornrulez6969) who've posted in this thread!

submitted a ballot despite never having heard the first two records. it was really good to listen to some of these songs again

You Are Free came out when I just got out of the psych ward In college. That is my favorite Cat Power record. Such a unique sound, that record is.

I need to get a few things ready so if you haven't submitted a ballot yet there's still time he!

Status update: I need to get my act together and do the necessary collation and double-checking, which I'm not sure I'll be able to swing during the week. So anyone who wants to submit a ballot still can until I get things properly set up!

Reviving my love for You Are Free was the best part about voting, although as my daughter would say, I'm a Moon Pix stan first and a human being second.

Still accepting ballots.

Going to try to get my act together this weekend, for people scoring at home.

So here's a question for the heads: Myra Lee and Dear Sir both have "Rockets," and I can't really hear a difference between the two. Did Chan just release the same song twice?

The albums were recorded at the same time so I've always assumed they're (subtly... as in I can't tell either) different takes.

ogmor, I emailed a few points of clarification for your ballot.

FYI, I'm going to consolidate all votes for "Rockets" as a single entry, since I can't hear differences between the two versions on Myra/Sir.

And since some people have asked, I'm hoping to get the tracks rollout started Monday.

do you really want to separate different versions of the songs in the roll-out? i thought you just wanted to consolidate all songs and then give the breakdown by version. otherwise songs with several versions have a handicap, i think.

agree with Alex

I did specify that Metal Heart would be counted by version, with the intention that other songs with multiple versions would also be counted separately. Consolidating them doesn't make sense to me, since different arrangements effectively make them new songs, but if enough people think that's a bad idea, I'm open to changing the policy.

VOTING CLOSED!
