AMF Chart Week 33 2014

Post by Setherex »

Welcome to Week 33 of the AMF Chart! The chart where Sun Kil Moon still stands seven months later, in a heated competition that includes both Leonard Cohen and Robert Plant.

Here are your rankings for Week 32 (number of weeks on the chart so far in parentheses):
1. Leonard Cohen - "Almost Like the Blues" (2)
2. alt-J - "Every Other Freckle" (3)
3. Interpol - "All the Rage Back Home" (8)
4. Sharon Van Etten - "Our Love" (2)
4. TV on the Radio - "Happy Idiot" (2)
6. Röyksopp & Robyn - "Every Little Thing" (6)
7. Sun Kil Moon - "Micheline" (5)
8. Robert Plant - "Rainbow" (1)
9. La Roux - "Uptight Downtown" (7)
10. The Bad Plus - "Adopted Highway" (1)
10. La Roux - "Let Me Down Gently" (1)
12. Jessie Ware - "Want Your Feeling" (2)

14. Mazes - "Salford" (1)
14. Perfume Genius - "Grid" (1)
20. Vince Staples - "Hands Up" (1)

Due to a tie for 10th, the top 11 songs from last week went on to this week. Not a lot of new songs this week compared to recent ones, but hey, I won't complain. The chart's variance every week remains a delightful highlight of making these topics.

6. St. Vincent - "Digital Witness" / Warpaint - "Love Is to Die" (3)
7. Sun Kil Moon - "Richard Ramirez Died Today of Natural Causes" / Warpaint - "Love Is to Die" (4)

Thank you all for voting and nominating continuously every week! Please don't be afraid to supply us with nominations - all songs six months old and younger (or who have received promotion via album/video/single in the last six months) are accepted! And seconding nominations by others' gives those songs a better chance at making the next poll!

As per usual, the next poll will be created as close to Sunday at 19:00 GMT as I can make it. Best of voting! :D

I nominate "Aisatsana" by Aphex Twin. The only song on his new album to match the sheer beauty of the strongest works on Selected Ambient Works Vol. II
