Good riddance. Most of the early 80s and much of the mid 80s was abysmal but this year takes the cake and may go down as the worst year ever in music.
Anyway whats the LEAST amount of albums you can vote for? I love 1982s the Dreaming and I definitely want to rank it but I can’t even wrap my head around what 2 to 4 albums to rank below it. Lots of coin flipping I suppose.

Re: Albums and Songs of 1981 Poll

Post by Live in Phoenix »

Last time around, a few songs got in because of two votes, with each of those votes at #1.

[12] Au Pairs - Headache for Michelle: (100)
[12] Ramones - The KKK Took My Baby Away: (100)
[12] The Gun Club - She's Like Heroin to Me: (100)

This time these songs placed at #49, #308, and #43; and a song with two #1 votes would have finished at #39. I don't know the number of voters from the two 1981 polls, but I noticed a couple strong votes won't get you far anymore.

[12] The Gun Club - She's Like Heroin to Me: (100)

This time these songs placed at #49, #308, and #43; and a song with two #1 votes would have finished at #39. I don't know the number of voters from the two 1981 polls, but I noticed a couple strong votes won't get you far anymore.
It probably is a consequence of the new point system. There were 50 voters for this 1981 poll, which is amazing! I only see 29 votes for the 2013 version of this poll, so that partially explains it. I guess an equivalent number of points based on only number 1 votes this time would be 50/29*200 = 344.83, which would land a song in 23rd place this time around.

I was noticing that as well. The new point system may be skewed against songs that are beloved by just a few voters. Something to keep in mind for future polls.

I have always been a fan of steep point scales, to get some surprising results and not just a list of the most wellknown songs. But the scale could hardly be steeper than it is now.

[89] Dynamic Hepnotics - "Hepno Beat": 1 vote, 100 points
[89] Maanam - "Boskie Buenos": 1 vote, 100 points
[89] Serge Bulot - "Euryale": 1 vote, 100 points
107] Brian Eno - David Byrne - "Regiment": 10 votes, 86.62 points

I had Regiment as my #8 (30 points). Although there were nine other voters for this song it got beaten by songs with a sole #1 placement.

Here's a link for Urban Tribal:

Low Noise - Urban Tribal

Thomas Dolby was in Low Noise & it looks like the song got included as a bonus track on this remastered edition of his first album. This sounds the same as the original 1981 single with maybe a tweak in the mix and some backing vocals added.

Really looking forward to listening to everyone's picks in the playlist - thanks for putting it together!

There aren't a lot of meaningful changes, IMO. Only one change in the automatic qualifiers, and the one that enters the top 10 is already likely for a wildcard spot having placed 11th under the new point system. I suppose "Youth of America" might get screwed here, and "Libertango (I've Seen That Face Before)" and "Charlotte Sometimes" would have slim chances of making the final as wildcards, but by and large the lists look pretty similar. And given that 1981 is rather notorious as not having any huge heavy-hitters, this is the year where some plucky upstarts with a few votes of huge support would get through normally, but there doesn't seem to be a big change. The correlation between points from the old system to the new system is 0.968, and if we look at just the top 30 songs according to the new poll, that correlation jumps to 0.99.

I suspect the main things that might be different this time around are that we have a bigger pool of participants (meaning there is less chance of a surprise entry) and some of our members with more esoteric taste aren't posting lists anymore such that our new collective tastes are more closely aligned with AM.

I like, at least somewhat, 62 of the forum's Top 100 songs for 1981 vs. only 24 when it comes to albums. (Although a lot of that is due to unfamiliarity at this point)

Thanks :D Though that was tiresome, and I'm not doing this again any time soon. I precisely thought of Mindrocker too already when my album list reached the 100 something range - sheesh, guys like him knew how to send us back to the chalkboard.

Sorry, missed your being back completely. I just checked and I never went to that thread where you announced your comeback, 'twas one I didn't even open. And yet, on a completely unrelated note, I got aware for some reason of the Shaq Fu sequel. Sheesh. I would feel silly if I cared about feeling silly. A late welcome back!

Don't know if Hailee has the requisite mania yet for Sioux, but here's hoping! I would also totally juju that!

I checked this one out, but too late to vote for it. Since I, too, enjoy the 'esoteric,' I looked up jade's & mindrocker's past picks for the all-time albums polls and started looting them for future reference. You haven't lived 'til you've heard Billy Nicholls & Royal Trux. :music-guitarred:

I was one of the number one voters for She's Like Heroin to Me last time, and I didn't vote this time (it would have still been my #1). My vote would have only bumped it from 43 to 32.
