SONGS: 1 | The Chameleons | Nostalgia I only see this as a 1985 release. I know it was a B-side to "In Shreds", but it seems to only be on a reissued B-side from 1985 according to Discogs and RYM. Obviously this is a big call as you've put it at #1. Do you have a source for 1982? 50 | Yaz...

Is this Seven Songs or Tearing Up the Plans ? You mean there were two Skidoo albums in '82? :o I've got something to look forward to, because I gotta check that other one out. I won't speak for Jade, but the one i found on the all-time list was "Seven Songs." 23 Skidoo gives me nightmares...

No problem - just let me know when you've made the final edits.

You know that "Little Red Corvette" is your favorite.

Moonbeam, I just noticed that Whitesnake's "Here I Go Again" is officially listed as 1982. (I wasn't familiar with this version.) Is it okay to vote for it in 1987? That's the version I know and prefer (and they're quite different). I'll let you make the call & vote for the '82 versio...

I think it's certainly a common thing. For me, most of my least favorite songs are definitely from my teenage years - the 90s sure served up a lot of detestable songs, IMO. I'll be if I looked at my bottom 100 songs of all time, the 90s might have half of the list. As far as favorites go, I was born...

I've always considered myself an MJ fan. Not a big fan, but a fan nonetheless - I've got all of his albums from Off the Wall to Invincible , some multiple times due to different formats/remastered copies. He's never been a mega-favorite of mine, but someone whose music I have always enjoyed on the w...

Moonbeam

Very brave and important discussion here. I, too, feel more uncomfortable listening to MJ's music, though there is still some doubt in my mind - not that I want to get into "did he do it?" discussion here. My preliminary lists were based on lists from 2018 before I watched Leaving Neverlan...

Fab! But I'm not sure the French are ready for my terrible pronunciation (and hopefully less terrible dance moves) of Les Rita Mitsouko's wonderful "Marcia Baila"... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zWlnzFXcKY They will appreciate it! After I did "Sans contrefaçon" by Mylène Farm...

This seems quite cool! I wonder if it's possible to add a link to the song page? So if, for instance, the random song is "The Payback" by James Brown (which was mine), you could link to its page: http://acclaimedmusic.net/song/S746.htm

1982 was a great year. But, since I'm ancient I prefer 1972 :-) I also wonder what the over/under is on how many of the songs in my list will be judged as not belonging in 1982 (my surmise is around 7-20) :mrgreen: There are a few which are from 1980 or 1981, which is ok as I'll add them to the tal...

1982 is a seemingly endless embarrassment of riches for me. Quantitatively, it's pretty clearly my favorite year ever. It contributed 8.8% of the total points from my recent all-time songs list for our poll last year. The next highest was 1983 with 6.6%. Here's a preliminary song list: [1] Prince - ...

The first year of the decade (yes, I'm one of those people) and it's a fantastic start. I don't know what's up with the "weak year" status it's been given, because it's false. In fact, I think I liked 1981 better than 1980. Albums: 01 | Yumi Matsutoya | 昨晩お会いしましょう [Sakuban Oaishimashō] 02...

Quick question about the poll - how are people dealing with live song versions in their song lists? And how do they affect the results - I assume they don't all merge but dealing with a bunch of live versions for a song could be theoretically difficult. Asking for a future year when my rankings mig...
