I’m glad that means you’ll have no preconceptions then! Great thing about Eurovision is not knowing what to expect.

StevieFan13

It would take a brave person to bet against mine + Rob's predicted winner seeing as it's one held dear by the forum (justifiably), even if it seemed forgotten by the critics in the EOD rankings. Interesting clashes here, not least King of Cool Lou Reed vs. Contest of Kitsch Eurovision! (not having ...

StevieFan13

OK, no. I refuse to have my character slandered by being listed as "not a fan" for Don't You Want Me. I love that song!

StevieFan13

I think a good fan knows when to admit their favorite artist might not have delivered the goods, while not necessarily crucifying them for it. Conpletely- you feel the hurt just as intently as when the sports team you follow loses. The blood still rushes to my face whenever I as much as think about...

I think a good fan knows when to admit their favorite artist might not have delivered the goods, while not necessarily crucifying them for it. '80s Stevie never did much for me, except (how ironic) Master Blaster and Happy Birthday. Don't ask me to defend I Just Called to Say I Love You or Ebony and...

StevieFan13

Haha, indeed! Maybe he should rebrand himself as StevieExceptForMasterBlaster AndIJustCalledtoSayILoveYou13Fan to make it that much catchier! I don't even dislike it! I can just think of plenty of Stevie songs I like better. It ranked lower than it probably would've if I'd ranked all 300 songs. ("I...

I will take Henrik's suggestion and start the countdown not from 300 for songs and 200 for albums, but from a smaller number, to add suspense to the poll in terms of which albums and songs made the final presentation. I'm thinking of presenting the top 200 songs and 150 albums, but let me know what...

StevieFan13

Wait, is Pressure Drop from ‘69? I was using AM as a reference and it was on the 1970 page.

Brown Sugar defines them best. Quintessential sound and lyrics. It floored me when I first heard it and it still does almost 50 years later.
My personal "redefining all my perception of music" Rolling Stones moment for me is Gimme Shelter.

Mine is Paint It Black.

Telex | Euro-Vision | Belgium | 1980 My favorite, very tongue-in-cheek, almost anti-music and definitely not suitable for a Eurovision audience :D I'd also like to add the complete bonkers "Rendez-vous" by Pas de deux from 1983. Have you listened to every Eurovision song, Stevie? Myself I've seen (...

StevieFan13

Hey gang! Now, most of you are actually in Europe, or at least countries that actively participate in Eurovision (the UK, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, Sweden, and Australia for sure, possibly even more), so don't think I'm trying to do whatever the equivalent of mansplaining (Eu...

Mary Lou gets a 7 from me as well.

Alright, let's get some songs going! If its a maximum of 200, here's what I got. 1 | Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats | S.O.B. | 2015 2 | Kitten | Kill the Light | 2014 3 | Sampha | (No One Knows Me) Like the Piano | 2017 4 | Kendrick Lamar | i | 2014 5 | Kacey Musgraves | Follow Your Arrow |...

StevieFan13

Wow. Very glad I was proven wrong!

StevieFan13

I’m gonna have to wait another year to get Billy Joel in, aren’t I? And he’s gonna lose to an artist who’s been around four decades less than he has, right?

StevieFan13

St. Vincent
Gerry Goffin and Carole King

StevieFan13

Someone You Loved is lousy

StevieFan13

We’ve counted their year lists before so this ought to count.

StevieFan13

And the inductees are:
The Notorious B.I.G.
The Doobie Brothers
Whitney Houston
Depeche Mode
T. Rex

StevieFan13

I would include this one. I think we’re being a bit too rigid.

StevieFan13

Prince's Bambi gets a 5 from me. He'd do better.

StevieFan13

If it's eligible, I'll transcribe it.

StevieFan13

I’m actually kind of happy to see a more pop-oriented list. I might not be a huge fan of, say, Jason Derulo or Maroon 5, but I respect a list that looks beyond just indie and alternative.

StevieFan13

Fuck You finally shows up on a list! Is this the first? Took too damn long.

StevieFan13

So yeah, couple of big-ish edits to my list. Now I think it's more or less done.

StevieFan13

My margins are much lower. I honestly could see any song I'd give at least a 7/10 a potential all-time contender.

StevieFan13

Somehow I forgot about Sleater-Kinney (you know, one of my favorite bands ever) so I may need to revisit my list.

I'm happy to keep playing! I'm just not consistent.

Trout Mask Replica and the Dave Clark Five discography were just added.

StevieFan13

Nirvana's Stay Away is also a 10 from me.

The OTHER Haddaway song. I’ll give it a 4.

Band Aid - Do They Know It's Christmas

StevieFan13

I know nothing about Eurovision, but I know that this list is a joke on account of "Run Away" being absent. Epic Sax Guy does not approve. EDIT: Nevermind, they got in with another song. But it's not as EPIC as the first one. I dunno, man. "Run Away" is a classic, but "Hey Mamma!" is a better song ...
