Marlene Dietrich - Sag’ mir, wo die Blumen sind (1962), unranked

I'm really happy to see "Never My Love" by The Association getting to the Hall of Fame. I could've never imagined this when I nominated it...

Thank you very much, Rob! Splendid roll-out! Even if the many playlists on the thread made it difficult to load (at least on my computer).

Sorry but the next item on my all time list is again a well-known and acclaimed song (but the next 5 items are going to be more obscure). It's AC/DC - Highway to Hell (1979), #212

That's great, Holden! I can help with this if you send me by PM the provisional list.

Otis, una alegría verte de nuevo por aquí. Las cosas se estaban poniendo un poco rarunas en tu ausencia...
Otis, glad to have you back again. Things were getting strange in your absence...

Well, even if spiritualized should have the last word, I think we could close the conversation about "Another Brick in the Wall" because: - It's a second nomination, the first one is Dire Straits' "Romeo and Juliet" and it's the one spiritualized would surely use on the 91 edition (by the way, I don...

Well, Harold, probably you're right. Anyway it sounded rude...

Or maybe he get ill, remember that some news channels still reporting corona today. What a wonderful, cheery thought. Why would you post something like this? I just shake my head sometimes ... wow Yes, Wisnu Tirta Aji, that was an unnecessarily rude comment. Hopefully Otis would be enjoying a well ...

Well, since I sent an albums and songs list I've decided to send also an artist list. The first number on my list alludes to the albums from this artist on my 2010s list (I allowed only one entry per artist on this list) and the second to the number of songs on my 2010s list (I allowed more than an ...

Maybe I'm wrong (Henrik could confirm it) but the site is not using "best of classical music" lists, just like it happened with jazz lists in the beginning. But if a classical album appears in enough "general" all-time or end-of-year lists it can be included. As an example, click on the link (http:/...

Sorry if I'm late (I needed to make a journey to the past before writing) but I wanted to congratulate Schüttelbirne for the fabulous rollout. Thank you very much for all the effort you put on this. I can't complain about the results. 9 songs of the Top 10 were on my list, 5 of them on my Top 50. An...

Mmm, it seems that the Neil Young discography arise a lot of controversy. Some peculiar facts on his discography like releasing live albums with only new material or including his songs as part of bands on solo compilations (not only "Decade" but also "Journey Through the Past," "Neil Young Archives...

No spoilers, please...

Sorry but the next song on my list is THE BEATLES “Eleanor Rigby” (1966) #176 on AM

I've updated the rankings two days ago. But, since I'm a moderator, the changes I make doesn't get mentioned at the bottom of the post.

31 albums updated in two months (nine weeks) thanks to bootsy (12), Krurze (11), Zombeels (4), Toni (3), Arsalan (2), Edre Peraza (1), Rocky Raccoon (1) and SJner (1). And with that bootsy is the seventh person to get into the 100 Club. Welcome to the club, bootsy! The albums updated are: - OK Compu...

Holden, you probably should reconsider your decision and make an exception with "Time Fades Away" and "Rust Never Sleeps." Those two albums, despite being recorded live (mostly, "Rust Never Sleeps" even includes some studio tracks), only include previously unreleased material. Agree with excluding t...

Thank you, spiritualized!

Stretching out the concept of classic my nomination is: LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN “Symphony No. 3 in E flat major ‘Eroica’, 2nd Movement: Marcia funebre, Adagio assai” (1803), 1962 version performed by Berliner Philharmoniker conducted by Herbert von Karajan Please tell me if it's not eligible and I'll s...

Again I feel out of step with the critics, none of the songs on my Top 10 are in the Top 50 of the best-of-decade critics lists, only two of them are on the Top 100 and 6 of the 10 are not even in the Top 200. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/35/David_Bowie_-_Lazarus_cover_art.jpg Songs: ...

Thank you very much, Jackson. Yes, let's hope for those "AMF specials" ending in high positions on the final list!

Let me introduce a new AM user, pepemallent. He's my best friend and he has an exquisite taste in music. We share a lot of common ground in music including some projects as parts of bands and as a duo (we're right now recording some songs together, I'll let you know about this when we finish). I ask...
