i could try to find some images on the web but i have no clue how to integrate them with the poll & track information.

I can do them with the caveat that while I can sling shit together, I am not a good designer.

“Oh, Move Over POLLER, And Let Jimi Take Over!” – ILX Artist Poll #101 – Jimi Hendrix – Voting Thread is closing after this weekend, so if you're interested, get those ballots in!

(Being locked inside for months is probably the best time for folks to try and figure out which of five nine-minute versions of different songs are their favourites, to be sure.)

I'm now more inclined to think that nobody will be able to concentrate hard enough to even tell a 1994 b-side from a 2019 remix, but the results rollout would make for good decision-free listening.

Elon's musk (sic), Friday, 1 May 2020 21:32 (three years ago) link

just looking forward to what is next

Bee OK, Saturday, 2 May 2020 02:28 (three years ago) link

How's about that trip hop poll? Though I'd suggest opening it to beyond the Bristol bands.

Judd Apatowsaurus (Leee), Tuesday, 5 May 2020 21:19 (three years ago) link

Bristol & nearby bands keeps a certain elegant purity & focus imo.

anyway UNDERWORLD IS GO!

Elon's musk (sic), Tuesday, 5 May 2020 23:45 (three years ago) link

one-week-in bump

Bleeqwot (sic), Thursday, 14 May 2020 00:22 (three years ago) link

three weeks pass...

Underworld poll is rolling out at length, top 77 start today: why don't you poll me I feel like flying to... the UNDERWORLD Poll Results thread -- produced by Smith & Hyde for ILM Artist Poll #102

an, uh, razor of love (sic), Wednesday, 10 June 2020 17:06 (three years ago) link

I'd like to bump myself in the mix for a Janet Jackson ballot poll because, really, she deserves her own apart from her family.

Dirty Epic H. (Eric H.), Thursday, 11 June 2020 18:26 (three years ago) link

Would participate.

A White, White Gay (cryptosicko), Thursday, 11 June 2020 18:47 (three years ago) link

would love that

is someone still planning to run a 2010s poll sometime in the next few months?

ufo, Thursday, 11 June 2020 18:52 (three years ago) link

Not sure what the protocol is for waiting one's turn, but I'd be happy to jump in with Janet whenever soonest available.

Dirty Epic H. (Eric H.), Thursday, 11 June 2020 19:08 (three years ago) link

I would definitely be up for a Janet poll and the 2010s one.

kitchen person, Friday, 12 June 2020 14:35 (three years ago) link

Oh god, yes please Janet poll asap

bunny slopes, Friday, 12 June 2020 19:38 (three years ago) link

With Underworld complete, I'm happy opening up a Janet poll if the people demand it.

Juanita was robbed (Eric H.), Tuesday, 23 June 2020 13:39 (three years ago) link

I'm there for a Janet poll, but isn't the 2010s hip hop poll happening now?

A White, White Gay (cryptosicko), Tuesday, 23 June 2020 16:36 (three years ago) link

It is, but I figured there had been concurrent single-artist and broader-topic polls in the past. But I can certainly wait, also.

Juanita was robbed (Eric H.), Tuesday, 23 June 2020 17:01 (three years ago) link

That's true. Not like any of us have a whole lot else going on right now, I guess.

A White, White Gay (cryptosicko), Tuesday, 23 June 2020 19:24 (three years ago) link

I actually think a Janet poll is a great idea, this artist poll would finish in plenty of time. The other poll is only in the nominations period.

one month passes...

am i allowed to list ballot polls that haven't yet been suggested and then volunteer to run them ? i have a few.

budo jeru, Wednesday, 12 August 2020 00:36 (three years ago) link

is the 2010s decade poll still planned for sometime soon?

ufo, Wednesday, 12 August 2020 00:47 (three years ago) link

oooh oooh, what's next?????

Totally different head. Totally. (Austin), Wednesday, 12 August 2020 15:32 (three years ago) link

I will be excited about the 2010s poll as soon as it stops being too hot to be excited about anything at all

Anti-Cop Ponceortium (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Wednesday, 12 August 2020 15:35 (three years ago) link

Who's going to run it? I almost could but I also think someone else should

imago, Wednesday, 12 August 2020 15:41 (three years ago) link

That is correct budo jeru, add to this thread which ballot polls you want to run. Bee will update the list with you in the queue. Ordering is all out of wack, so you can probably skip to the front if you are ready to go.

the future is now, Wednesday, 12 August 2020 20:41 (three years ago) link

oh not quite ready this instant, but thanks for the response !

budo jeru, Wednesday, 12 August 2020 21:55 (three years ago) link

Who is nest?

Personally I would love to see Super Furry Animals as, finally, all their albums are up on Spotify.

the future is now, Thursday, 20 August 2020 00:27 (three years ago) link

NEXT

the future is now, Thursday, 20 August 2020 00:35 (three years ago) link

Yeah I'd love an SFA poll too

Vinnie, Thursday, 20 August 2020 00:47 (three years ago) link

two weeks pass...

anyone going to run one soon? the decade poll... ?

ufo, Friday, 4 September 2020 01:18 (three years ago) link

two weeks pass...

Gee, things are really quiet in here.

I'm suddenly keen on briskly running the Replacements poll I mentioned last year if there's sufficient interest!? (I notice Johnny Fever signed up for such a thing almost a decade ago before retracting it, and my suggestion here was prompted by chatter on a Replacements thread, so there appears to be at least a few potential voters about...)

Nag! Nag! Nag!, Friday, 18 September 2020 05:34 (three years ago) link

I would think you'd get a lot of voters in that one--at least 40.

clemenza, Friday, 18 September 2020 13:07 (three years ago) link

Just please take a blood oath, here and now, that you won't call it "Polled to Meet Me" (or, ideally, anything involving "poll," but I know that's a lot to ask).

clemenza, Friday, 18 September 2020 14:23 (three years ago) link

i'm in love what's that POLL? i'm in love with that POLL

cerebral rape and POLLage in a village of his choice

i got a homogenic björk wine farmer permabanned (voodoo chili), Friday, 18 September 2020 14:48 (three years ago) link

LOL. I will find the pun opportunity hard to resist.

If there no objections after another eight hours or so (there never seems to be, but I'm always mindful that some have been waiting for years) I'll cobble together a thread.

Maybe a solo Westerberg/side-project side-poll would be warranted?

Nag! Nag! Nag!, Friday, 18 September 2020 15:40 (three years ago) link

by chance, i've had my very first case of replacements fever recently, so i would be pumped about a poll! i've had a mild familiarity with most of their stuff for a long time, but recently i've been connecting to a couple in a way that i hadn't before, listening to some old ones i'd never really given time to, the recent stripped down Don't Tell a Soul, etc.

Karl Malone, Friday, 18 September 2020 15:44 (three years ago) link

i would have no idea on the solo/side projects but would very much love to see a countdown to steer me in some promising directions

Karl Malone, Friday, 18 September 2020 15:44 (three years ago) link

in the spirit of the replacements, though, i think it's only appropriate to be inexcusably drunk as often as possible while posting on that thread, so i apologize to everyone on it in advance

Karl Malone, Friday, 18 September 2020 15:46 (three years ago) link

"Tonight I'll be doing pull-ups on the toilet POLL"

Chris L, Friday, 18 September 2020 15:50 (three years ago) link

Oops, just saw this is the ILM thread. Still, nominate stuff!

Get the point? Good, let's dance with nunchaku. (Eric H.), Thursday, 24 September 2020 15:16 (three years ago) link

three weeks pass...

Okay, this one is finished.

I hate ILoveMusic, it's got too many POLLS - Artist Poll #104 - THE REPLACEMENTS - RESULTS

So... NEXT <INTERROBANG>

Nag! Nag! Nag!, Thursday, 15 October 2020 12:31 (three years ago) link

If there’s enough interest I might be able to run The Cramps poll. Halloween season seems like a good fit for them.
