I love how the selection veers a lot more toward alt-rock and its ilk.

StevieFan13

Thanks, madzong! I know what I'm listening to.

As an honorary New Zealander that listens to this radio station, I can vouch that listeners could not vote for these lists.

Yay! More NZ Music lists!

Hooray! Thanks, madzong!

I'm not sure if the Rolling Stone lists are eligible, but the top 100 Metal Albums list at http://www.rollingstone.com/music/lists/the-100-greatest-metal-albums-of-all-time-w486923?utm_source=rsnewsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_content=daily&utm_campaign=062117_10 could provide some inter...

Yay, the first of my upper tier shows up! Losing Alan Rickman last year stung like hell, but for pure intimidation whenever he was onscreen, he couldn't be beaten. Especially Snape.

Seconded

I'd say musical theatre, but for the sake of the non-theatre folks, I went with R&B, if only for the sake of getting some funk in here.

StevieFan13

But shouldn't it not count considering it's metal and Rolling Stone is most definitely not a metal list? As I mentioned, this list is currently ineligible. I'm just posting it for posterity's sake and put the link in the "Album genre lists from non-genre sources" thread. If Henrik changes...

http://www.rollingstone.com/music/lists/the-100-greatest-metal-albums-of-all-time-w486923 Obviously ineligible (for now), so this is just for posterity, like the other genre lists.

Rodriguez at #1! That's what I like to see.

The hype machine definitely put more scrutiny on Jennifer Lawrence than anyone (let alone her) could handle, but I don't know if I'd say she has an ego. If anything, she's her own harshest critic, and her laid-back demeanor can sometimes make you forget how completely lost she can get in a role. Fo...

Post these in the "undecided lists" thread.

Wowee. Guess this means Emma Stone showed up on multiple people's lists!

StevieFan13

Ooh, this hurts. Shook Ones Part 2 maintains a spot in my all-time top 40.

Noted. Thanks!

Checking Rolling Stone's website, they have specific sections for hip-hop and country. Would that make their country/hip-hop songs lists eligible, or not? Just wondering, not trying to push the lists.

StevieFan13

I'll come back to this and the other Israeli songs list to provide proper name translations in the near future.

StevieFan13

Or I won't. No more looking. Unless this one can be found, just put it on the backburner and forget it exists.

The sound of music (1965) don't seems to have any rating from Allmusic http://www.allmusic.com/album/the-sound-of-music-original-motion-picture-soundtrack-mw0001386419 It does.

I've been able to find most of the list via YouTube playlists and whatnot, but does anyone know where the full list can be found?

Even though Henrik said it's OK to post what I find, I'll still try to tone it down a bit. Hopefully.

When I first heard "Green Light" and learned she was working with Antonoff I was worried that the album might veer way too pop, but those worries were unfounded. Although I like Antonoff's work with Bleachers and fun, this has to be his finest hour as a producer. It might be too soon to c...

Thank you very much Steve! I've actually read that Fred Schruers biography - a fascinating read.

Have these already been added to the spreadsheets? I'm guessing yes, but I just want to be sure. Yup. 60s and 70s are mentioned in the list of lists Henrik added himself in the Help Wanted! thread, while the 80s and 90s are in the other spreadsheet I talked to you about. Gotcha.

I kinda hope these are eligible, because a lot of these songs are fantastic. Look carefully to find Tribute by Tenacious D.

StevieFan13

Posted about this in the other thread and got nothing, so whatever. Here are the lists, and unless madzong or someone like that can prove me wrong, I don't believe either of these were selected by votes. First, the '90s. http://www.hauraki.co.nz/music/the-top-300-songs-of-the-90s/ 300 LEO SONG SHIHA...

StevieFan13

Some of these do appear tantalizing, but the last thing I want to do is make this update take any longer, so I'm gonna post my last two lists, hope they check out, and not dig any deeper. But after the update? Yeah, some of these are worth exploring.

StevieFan13

Here's the thing about the radio lists I post: they're ones I've verified weren't selected by listeners, which are ineligible (and even then I've slipped up a few times). There's not much of a way to determine that with all these lists.

StevieFan13

Is it OK if I just post them?

StevieFan13

I have two more lists I'm thinking of posting (possibly three - does Treble classify itself as an alternative magazine?), but I'm not sure on their eligibility. They're from Radio Hauraki, a New Zealand radio station, listing the top 300 songs of the '90s and '00s. http://www.hauraki.co.nz/music/the...

http://www.sportsalcohol.com/the-90-best-songs-of-the-90s/ There are two other radio lists I might post from New Zealand's Radio Hauraki if a native New Zealander can confirm they weren't votes (I checked Hauraki's Facebook as well and they don't appear to be, but a guy can't be too sure, especially...

SiriusXM's Lithium station, which is all about grunge and alt-rock in the '90s, did a list of the best grunge/alternative songs of the decade. Their selection process was as follows: Narrowing down a decade’s worth of music to a list of 100 was a great deal easier than one would think. It only requi...

StevieFan13

That's so romantic...
Some of those second-tier songs might also make good choices for the main selections (Sex Machine, Nightswimming, Music Sounds Better with You, and Moondance are all great mood-setters). But it's not my wedding, so whatever.

StevieFan13

Have these already been added to the spreadsheets? I'm guessing yes, but I just want to be sure.

Artist lists with -50 songs have been declared eligible a lot of times (Nina Simone, Nirvana, Depeche Mode, etc.)

StevieFan13

bootsy wrote:Swimming Pools at the bottom of the list is a little disappointing.

Will this list count. I know Henrik said for a single artist list it had to be 50 songs I think. I don't know maybe it was 30. Can't remember.

No, 30 is the minimum.

Mazel tov! I don't know if I can, but congratulations!
