Welcome to 2007! If you want to participate, please post a list of your favorite songs and/or albums from that year in this thread. Only the top 20 will be given points, but larger lists are always welcomed and encouraged. On the other end of the spectrum, you need to list at least 5 songs/albums in order for your list to count towards the tabulation. Additionally, it’s no problem if wish to edit your list until the end of the month, but you MUST do so in a new post, otherwise I will not notice and your update will not be counted.
The top 10 albums and songs from each year will automatically qualify for the final decade poll. Additionally, there will be TBD wild card spots available to the songs and albums that miss the top 10. Wild cards will be determined using the points received in the yearly polls, with the point totals normalized by the number of lists that are submitted in that year. Wild cards also allow songs and albums with unclear release years to receive votes in both years.
Not waiting until the last minute this time!

We're just about at a 17-year gap again between Guns N' Roses studio albums, not counting their covers album.
In retrospect, it seems ominous that I was underwhelmed by Dear Science (with one exception) and Merriweather Post Pavilion the following year. Now it strikes me as the bottom falling out of my interest in alternative rock, besides an occasional exception.
