AMF WC Classics Edition 104

Post by spiritualized »

Hello everyone,
It's time for instalment n°104 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 one of the first top 1000 AM songs can be nominated each week.
- A maximum of six of the top AM 1001-10000 songs can be nominated each week.
- that leaves a minimum of 3 places each week reserved for un-acclaimed songs (if you want more than 3, the fourth + unranked song will take the spot of a second tier one)

The top 10 songs by votes (then by most recent nominations) will move on to the next week. In case of equal votes and starting weeks, more songs can advance to the next week. The 10 (or less) new nominations will be added to the pool for the next contest. In case there are less than 20 songs to compete, a randomised song from the 10000 AM songs will be added.

After 8 weeks in the top 10, the song will move to the Hall of Fame.

:scared-shocked: 103 votes last week (-13)
:scared-shocked: On the top step of the podium, again : Sam Cooke's A Change Is Gonna Come
:scared-shocked: New Entries : Stereolab / Prince / The Human League / Bobbie Gentry
:text-bump: Kicked out this week : Abba / Todd Rundgren / Deep Purple / Johann Pachelbel
:text-bump: Nirvana reach the Hall of Fame this week !

Listen to all 20 songs and enjoy voting for your favorite 10 songs... You can change your mind until the end of the 7 day period.

I think Brye/Cavetown's great song should be also nominated to the "regular" Chart. Excellent pick !

Unless we are now consciously making exceptions for 2020 releases, this is ineligible.

Oops! I'm sorry. Thanks, Mileswide. I didn't realize this before. May Spiritualized held a new rule that songs from current year are ineligible. So my previous nomination replaced by:
Brenda Lee - Sweet Nothin's (#4859)

Because her holiday song currently reaching the Top 3 of Billboard's Hot 100, which was make other acts who make any ordinary songs pretty shock because older songs (including holiday songs) finally eligibled by Billboard to enter the Hot 100 for the second time because of highly favourable by their listeners and every December holiday songs always reaching the highest position of the Hot 100. So, it is also make other acts think twice how their songs reaching the highest position of the Hot 100 although it was December.
