I wonder where this falls in the ranking of Sufjan's albums. I liked this and didn't really like Illinois, so for me this is his best, but "objectively" maybe second best? And I'm sorry Setherex that I'm talking about rankings and numbers, but I just can't resist :D Haha, no problem at al...

I can't even begin to describe to you all the immense satisfaction that I get when all 20 songs of the poll are on Spotify. It's like fitting together the pieces of a perfect puzzle, haha.

It's weird how everyone I know in person who really likes GKMC doesn't seem to care as much for TPAB. Really? That's interesting to me, I don't really have any friends who've disliked one or the other. It's shocking to me how many people I've run into that have listened to TPAB. I get the whole Spo...

Well at least there is a voice of reason on this board. I agree with everything you said. Thanks bootsy. I'd like to think there are a few reasonable voices, though.

Angry side note - the newest Spotify desktop update is absolutely dreadful, and makes my job (as well as Henrik's and all of yours, I'm sure) extremely difficult.

The jury has reached a verdict in the “Blurred Lines” case against Robin Thicke and Pharrell Williams, ordering them to pay $7.3 million to the family of Marvin Gaye for copyright infringement.

Kanye West - All Day Seconded. Yes. I'd like to nominate "I Really Like You" by Carly Rae Jepsen. She's done it again, gentlemen. A million times, yes. Reminder to get your votes, nominations, and seconding of nominations in before the new poll tomorrow. In a week of so many favorites it'...

Setherex

For the record, the whistle at the end of "All Day" has been confirmed as McCartney's. It's a sample of an unreleased song (circa 1970) that uses only two-fingered chords. The tune also provides the melody for the song's chorus. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFBKXQILeqI https://www.youtu...

Setherex

The outro was good, but the song itself was largely unimaginative. Found the "All Day" repetitions annoying and the riff straight out of Kanye's own Monster. In my opinion, this has been the least exciting string of releases of his career. I have to wholesomely disagree with you there, fr...

Also, apologies to Rdwdbob - it appears that Kopecky's "Are You Listening" dates back to around 2013. Not that I check nomination dates very often, but I was curious in this case. Sorry! Please always supply us with more noms, though. You, as well as everyone else, are particularly good at...

Also I second this nomination. I tried to say last week that maybe there is a better song on "I Love You, Honeybear" than "Holy Shit" which I did nominate, but maybe I inadvertently nominated the title song too, I have no idea. But whatever the case, I think the two songs right ...
