AMF WC Classics Edition 112
Hello everyone,
It's time for instalment n°112 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.
124 votes last week (-5)
On the top step of the podium, for the sixth week running : The Velvet Underground - Sunday Morning
4 new entries : Led Zeppelin / Dick Dale / The Beta Band / Elvis Costello
Kicked out this week : Sonic Youth
The Hollies reach the Hof for the First Time
Side note : 3 songs with the same number of votes and age at the bottom of the top 10 means less nominations allowed this week. Sorry to the nominators !
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.
The AMF WC Classics Hall of Fame playlist :
Top Chart (number of weeks as n°1)
Nirvana - The Man Who Sold The World (1)
Sam Cooke - A Change Is Gonna Come (6)
Portishead - Wandering Star (1)
The Velvet Underground & Nico - Sunday Morning (5)

Re: AMF WC Classics Edition 112
I fear we do have a problem !
The top 10-12 is stacked with classic songs (no surprises here, there are no unranked songs.
I wouldn't be surprised if there were no new entries this week !

I'll just copy my entry from last edition:

It was originally released in 1976, but a few months ago a "remix" of sorts was released and that version is what I would like to nominate:
Léo Ferré | "Muss es sein? Es muss sein!" (Unranked)
Please tell me if it doesn't fit in here.
