Well Nassim, in the old system, 'Relationship of Command' would have been eliminated. With the wildcard system, it has a chance. I think a decent chance but only time will tell. I for one will not be voting for 'Viva La Vida'. Maybe we should start a not-recommended thread. :music-rockon: I'll star...

Looking at mine from the 2015 poll, I don't think I'd make much changes. There'd be a lot of new entries in my top 500 but I'd get only one different song in the top 100 I think : I'm surprised I put Black Sabbath - Snowblind in my top 100 (though it definitely belongs in the top 200) so that one wo...

Eligibility question: Gary Jules cover of Tears for Fears' Mad World appeared in Donnie Darko released in 2001, but the soundtrack has been available on Cd only in 2002. So it should be considered 2002 I guess ?

Nassim

If you can make a best songs/albums from the whole world list, I don't see why you wouldn't be able to narrow it to the USA.

Nassim

I am willing to help on listing the eligible choices !
I guess waiting for the update would make more sense (especially to know which songs from the newer albums are eligible) though it's been one of my favorite game so I don't really want to wait...

Looking at the brackets, I'd be surprised if the Beatles passed round 2 (I have bet on Loud City Song to win the competition so...), even more round 3 (facing either Dig Me Out or Have On Me).

I'm more worried about Ennio Morricone and Lana del Rey running over the early competition to be honest.

Ministry - Psalm 69: The Way to Succeed & the Way to Suck Eggs vs. Nick Cave - Henry's Dream Nick Cave's albums are hit and miss, that one is on the good half and I really enjoyed it. Tough call, but I'd rather listen to Ministry given the choice. The Pharcyde - Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde vs....

Animal Collective's Feels is now my 20th favorite album of all time or so, but I hated it the first time I heard it. Somehow, somewhen later (probably with the benefit of enjoying Strawberry Jam and MPP), I listened to "The Purple Bottle" separately and really fell in love with it so I gav...

I guess it kinda moved to hip-hop, Killer Mike has always been in that vein but there are many others, a pack lead by M.I.A, if you consider her hip hop. It also moved to metal, thought they are angry whatever the topic at hand. Rock protest isn't dead though, it isn't necessarily as angry, musicall...

Kyuss - Welcome to Sky Valley Always nice to see a bunch of personal favorite I didn't nominate. Surprised to see The Game too, I feel Queen's albums are a bit overlooked on AM ; I'm more of a Jazz person myself (that's the only occasion I would utter that sentence) or an Innuendo person (yeah... t...

Less nice to see what I thought was one of my few 0 star albums, but no, it's their other one and I gave it the way better grade of 1 star ! What album is that? Lolita Nation. Not as tedious and dull as The Big Shot Chronicles but close enough. It's really rare I don't find any redeeming quality fo...

I only have seen 5 of the movies nominated for best movie, but the 5 of them are very good and I honestly wouldn't complain if any won.

Speaking of Johnny Cash..surprised he isn't getting more love. I personally think Solitary Man is the best album in his American series, and "I See a Darkness" is a very powerful song. Both will be prominently placed in my eventual lists. Don't think it adds much to the original, though t...

Nassim

Hahaha, yes. Unfortunately not everyone shares my deep deep love for Enema of the State. I share it! I used my 10th nomination on a Blink-182 album, so it looks like it won't make it. My strong dislike for this album is heightened by the fact I think Dude Ranch is one of the best pop punk albums ev...

I could not rank all of them as between 40 or 50 would be pretty much tied as "great but doesn't touch any of my heart strings". Still, what I can do is rank my very favorite and the not so much ones : top 10 : 1. Arcade Fire - Funeral 2. Sufjan Stevens - Illinois 3. Beastie Boys - Paul's ...

I guess some AMers won't be happy with Giorgio by Moroder's ranking. I was mostly curious about the ranking of Robot Rock which for me is a hard song to rank because in one hand it's pretty damn cool, on the other hand it's damn lazy and the song they got the sample from, Breakwater - Release the Be...

Nassim

Also interesting to see that due to the difference in mechanics, the albums from the moderately acclaimed poll are ranked very differently in here. Foreverland due to its very polarizing reception only ended up 10th on the moderately acclaimed poll, but here pretty much ties with the winner, Mystère...

Wonderful presentation, if we keep raising the bar like that for every poll, within 3 or 4 years we will have to post results as 90 minutes movies with CGI and choreographed musical sections.

Artists in my top 100 that are eligible but not in: 6. Radiohead 41. Tool 55. Blur 56. Pixies 66. Soundgarden So if next year's class were up to me, that would be it.

Futurerocklegends tried something like that, sorting the Hall of Fame inductees by tiers http://www.futurerocklegends.com/Images/RockHallPyramid.jpg It's not too bad.

1997 saw the release of my 2 favorite of all time, another in my top 10, 3 more in my top 50. That's easily my favorite year ever, my only grudge is that it's pretty light on hip-hop.

Nassim

I didn't expect Kaytranada to do too great, partly because I disliked it but mostly because it isn't the most AM appealing genre (see also how all electronic music without vocals is out already).
My bet would go to Emma Pollock as the album is very good and most likely within most people's alley.

Well if you click on the album on AM you have the full list of lists it appeared on, the total figure is not written but I guess if you go through the top 5 of each year it's a manageable work and the albums with the most appearances should be in there.

3 albums to listen to and one to relisten to. Don't know yet if I'll need an extension, but I'll vote !

Nassim

I should stay this is 95% purely ranked on music, as a non native speaker, even one who has no trouble conversing fluently in the language, I still have tough time focusing on lyrics, safe for albums I have listened again and again (which means that I actually know the lyrics of the top 2 songs here...

I think the album I like the most is not necessarily the one I think should be #1. For instance I don't take much pleasure at listening to To Pimp a Butterfly, so it is very low in my personal list and among the 3 I enjoy the least in the bunch, but I still don't see any albums of its year more dese...

I voted Ziggy, but OK Computer, Ziggy and Abbey Road are all in my 15-25 of all time range with no clear winner among the 3 (and Are You Experienced isn't that far behind).

I take it AM has never included multiple versions of the same song by the same artist, but I think this should count as two separate entries because critics are clearly citing different versions of the song.
