Jammer dan wel dat het zo'n verschrikkelijk nummer is.

It’s a good song too!

Gabbani's not exactly a critics' favourite. Fortunately.

But Occidentali’s Karma...

Uh, Spiritualized? As I noted above, typo.

No Francesco Gabbani? Fake news!

Good luck with the Joy Division albums - last I checked, they only had a couple of acclaimed songs, and most of them were non-album singles!

StevieFan13

1. Sleater-Kinney - The Woods
2. Julia Holter - Ekstasis
3. Camel - Mirage
4. Francesco De Gregori - Rimmel

Just now noticed that people keep calling it Fat Slow DIsco

No such thing as a bad year for music. There can be bad years for a certain type of music, but never a year where every single release is mediocre.

Didn't the 1001 Songs book say 1942?

Two New Zealanders on one music forum! That’s awesome. I assume you are thinking of madzong & SafetyCat. My passport says I'm a New Zealander too. I was born in the UK and have lived in several countries and have been in Auckland since 1988. My grandchildren were born in New Zealand and Austral...

Just bumped up a lot of my list - while I'm keeping Where the Wild Roses Grow on the off-chance it can be moved to a safe wildcard position, Flagpole Sitta came out in '97 and not '96 so there's no reason for it to be there.

I believe that song's from '95.

but it peaked in spring 96. fuck fascist release dates

Fair point. After all, Shea Serrano did call it the best rap song of '96 for that reason.

StevieFan13

Well, sorry about that, Steviefan13, I was too pedantic. It's the same version. "Luke the Drifter" was a pseudonym that Hank Williams used for his spoken word material (you can find mor information in https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hank_Williams_as_Luke_the_Drifter). "Ramblin' Man&q...

I think by that margin, that rules out: Madonna, Britney, Missy, Portishead, Christina Aguilera, Mariah Carey, and Lil Kim.

Somehow, it doesn't rule out Kelis or Sharon Jones.

It's actually Hank Williams' version that's being voted on here.

I can't see this one not making it. I feel like on this forum it's the second favorite Fleetwood Mac song behind Go Your Own Way

I saw it on a bunch of lists

I personally was pleased to see Every Time the Sun Comes Up and Good as Hell make the cut. And Fuck the Pain Away in the top ten!

Does Where the Wild Roses Grow count as a '95 or '96 song or both? It has had 6 votes in 1995, but I will accept votes in 1996 which will go towards the wild-card total from anyone (such as yourself) who didn't vote for it in 1995. Is it a safe wildcard as of now or did it make the top ten and my v...

The thing with Purple Rain for me is that I had excised the two tracks I thought stood less of a chance (Baby, I'm a Star and Computer Blue) knowing the remaining seven were all stone-cold classics and wouldn't have too hard a time taking on all comers even with a "less good" song. I didn'...

I guess this is a follow-up to the albums list from last year. Think they're gonna do a pre-21st century list too?

Will post the list shortly.

Sorry but...isn’t it countryspecific!? Yeah, might've been my bad.

Can we count madzong's list? It's well-thought-out, I think. Also it's only 98 songs, so it shouldn't take too long to add (if Gillingham's can get in with 100).

Did I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor drop out of the top 500?

StevieFan13

In fact, Rain by Dragon was also on my list, just brushing the top 500. I like what I’ve heard by them (interestingly enough, I first heard them on a playlist of Australian songs - are they like CH and have both Australians and New Zealanders?)

A #1 vote for Crowded House is right up my alley! Great Band. So many good songs. 'Don't Dream It's Over' has that nice melancholy / nostalgic feel to it while 'Weather With You' always seems like it's exact opposite - joyful and upbeat. Three of their songs are on my list (Don’t Dream It’s Over, B...

I'd watch it! Or maybe I wouldn't. Do you think it would get any followers? :D One phenomenon is the trouble when you have to throw out one more song, e.g. you have 101 songs you want to put into a top 100. I pick a victim, but then suffer from the earworm syndrome: the song I threw out gets stuck ...
