AMF Chart Week 34 2015

Post by Setherex »

Welcome to Week 34 of the AMF Chart! The chart where I so caught up in the new update that I forgot to make the new poll. Or, at least that's my excuse. Believable, right?

Here are your rankings for Week 33 (number of weeks on the chart so far in parentheses):
1. Joanna Newsom - "Sapokanikan" (1)
2. Julia Holter - "Feel You" (6)
3. Beach House - "Sparks" (7)
4. Florence + The Machine - "Ship to Wreck" (10)
5. Chvrches - "Leave a Trace" (5)
6. Beck - "Dreams" (9)
7. Blur - "Lonesome Street" (2)
8. Kacey Musgraves - "Biscuits" (5)
9. FKA twigs - "In Time" (1)
10. Beach House - "Beyond Love" (1)
10. Nicolas Jaar - "Swim" (1)
12. Dr. Dre feat. Kendrick Lamar, Marsha Ambrosius & Candice Pillay - "Genocide" (1)
13. Dawes - "I Can't Think About It Now" (2)
13. Kid Cudi - "Confused" (2)
15. Kurt Vile - "Pretty Pimpin" (4)
16. Buxton - "Miss Catalina 1992" (1)
17. FIDLAR - "40oz. on Repeat" (2)
17. Lianne La Havas - "Unstoppable" (2)
17. Tame Impala - "'Cause I'm a Man" (Haim Remix) (2)
20. Deradoorian - "The Eye" (1)
Total Votes: 92

Congratulations to Florence + The Machine's "Ship to Wreck" for making our Hall of Fame! An interesting week in general for the AMF Chart, with four songs tying for the top position (a feat that hasn't been matched since Week 18 2014). Beach House has now tied Alvvays and Sufjan Stevens' record for six straight weeks atop the chart - yet this song in particularly seems more destined for seven straight weeks than the others, in this poster's opinion. Also, apologies for making the poll late! My actual excuse is that I was at FYF Fest this weekend, so at least it's music-oriented :D Due to Florence + the Machine's automatic retirement from the chart, and the tie for 10th place, the top 10 songs otherwise went through to this week's poll.

2015 Chart-Toppers by Week (by vote count, not chart position; total weeks atop chart in parentheses):
1. Alvvays - "Archie, Marry Me" (2) / Kanye West feat. Paul McCartney - "Only One"
2. Alvvays - "Archie, Marry Me" (3)
3. Alvvays - "Archie, Marry Me" (4)
4. Alvvays - "Archie, Marry Me" (5) / Belle and Sebastian - "Nobody's Empire"
5. Alvvays - "Archie, Marry Me" (6)
6. Belle and Sebastian - "Nobody's Empire" (2)
7. Björk - "Black Lake"
8. Björk - "Black Lake" (2)
9. Belle and Sebastian - "Nobody's Empire" (3) / Björk - "Black Lake" (3)
10. Sufjan Stevens - "No Shade in the Shadow of the Cross"
11. Grimes - "REALiTi"
12. Grimes - "REALiTi" (2)
13. Grimes - "REALiTi" (3) / Kendrick Lamar - "King Kunta" / Sufjan Stevens - "No Shade in the Shadow of the Cross" (2)
14. Kendrick Lamar - "King Kunta" (2)

Here is your 2015 AMF Chart playlist of all songs on the chart so far this year:


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 UTC as I can make it. Best of voting! :D

Again, apologies for the late thread creation. The poll will run for about six days instead, still closing on Sunday!

And as well, if anyone has a note as to why the 2015-encompassing Spotify playlist isn't linking on the Forum, or if it's just a Spotify issue, please let me know. Gratze ;)

I nominate FKA Twigs - I'm Your Doll. Before I wasn't sure if two songs from the same artist was allowed.

and I'm seconding FKA Twigs - I'm Your Doll.

Not really a fan of having 1 artist with 3 songs on the chart, so I will keep hold of PPP by Beach House for now
