It's time for instalment n°99 of the Classics Chart, where YOU get to nominate and vote for the best songs ever in a tournament to the death ! Only the cream of the crop will go through the grueling EIGHT weeks of charting.
Nominations will follow the rules below
- only the first top 1000 AM song nominated each week is eligible.
- only the first six top AM 1001-10000 songs nominated each week is eligible.
- that would leave 3 places each week reserved for un-acclaimed songs (if more than 3, the fourth unranked song will take the spot of a second tier one)
140 votes last week (+5 votes) On the top step of the podium : Sam Cooke's A Change Is Gonna Come New Entries : R.E.M. / The Smiths
Kicked out this week : The Church / The Walker Brothers A Tribe Called Quest & Regina Spektor (by a hair's breadth) reach the hall of fame for the first time !
Listen to all 20 songs and enjoy voting for your favorite 10 songs...
