Wow, what a brilliant idea! Except for one thing... do you have any way of automatically updating the values in the DM and YM columns, or do you have to manually update the values for each album in a given year/decade? That should be easy if you just sort by year, but I figure there might be a somew...

Another red flag is Moves Like Jagger. For such a massively popular song, it's hard to believe it's so low on the 2010s list. If that list was based on the Spotify playlist that I created, it may be because I inadvertently added "Moves Like Jagger" from an appearance from some random compilation in...

I made a spreadsheet with all the songs where people can add the genres, if they wanna just look for them on RYM. It's not something to be completed, just something for fun in case anyone wants to work on it. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1wK7zQlTQz_DkTFH_P5OCGo3BJy3BejtPOqktnAfwnBE/edit?us...

There's also the matter that the genre tree itself has had some significant changes that have yet to be implemented on AM (all of which I accounted for in another thread). One thing I worry about when applying genres to songs is what to do in cases where the song has a remix or alternate version tha...

I'll bring this up once more with a final word of encouragement... if you remove this list, then "My Ding a Ling" will drop in the rankings!

Great choice for #1. I have a continually updating songs list (sadly, I lost the data I used for the 2018 all-time poll, so I had to start from scratch - what should I do to prevent losing the new data?) but for album lists, I find it better to take things one poll at a time for now.

Sweepstakes Ron

Okay, here's the top 550. I'm only doing this once.

Not gonna lie, I'm pretty fucking miffed that not a single Beach House track landed in the top 200.

And not a single St. Vincent track either! What the fuck, critics?

From the moment I first heard it, I thought the chorus of Florence and the Machine's "Queen of Peace" sounded strikingly similar to that of "Firework" by Katy Perry. Absolutely no one else seems to have acknowledged this.

Sweepstakes Ron

I think "Dancing With Myself" should be credited to Billy Idol as well as Gen X, since the same recording was released under both at different points.

I wonder if this will push any 2010s songs into the all-time top 100. "Get Lucky" started out in there and then fell out, but it still has a strong lead in the current update, and I'm not sure how much these lists will push other songs ahead of it, or if it will land back in the top 100.

"Oh Lady Be Good" is on Count Basie's page twice, and the one that's bubbling under lists sources that are already listed for the ranked one.

Is there any reason why Super Ape is in the 4th quadrant despite being ranked as high as #1077?

Sweepstakes Ron

Oddly, Apple Music has two versions of the album, with seemingly the only difference being which version of "Borderline" it contains.

I thought there would be almost as many EOD 2010s lists as EOY 2019 lists, but apparently not. Therefore, I will loose up the EOD criteria a bit.

Henrik, do you want I should compile all the non-included songs list here so you can more easily determine eligibility?

Sweepstakes Ron

I suppose it's odd seeing "About a Girl" shoot up high, probably because it only became really popular due to a live version from 1994.

From what I can tell, Bloomberg IS Trump, except actually competent instead of a blithering idiot, which may make him even more dangerous.

Yeah, that's what it should look like. What step are you on now?

Since "Borderline" already appeared, the best I can hope for now is "I'll dance my life away"/"My mind says prepare to fight"

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.

Suggestion for tie breaker. The first tie breaker should be a count of how many voters had each song ranked higher than the other song on their ballot. That way, in effect, every voter votes for one or the other to break the tie. If there's an even amount of ballots and it's still tied after that s...
