August 26, 201014 yr I'm guessing Oh No is the number 1 indie/Rock song of the year but it's neither indie nor rock
August 26, 201014 yr Author It would probably be Hollywood seeing as that was #1 for ever but I think you are quite right. I think I need to overhaul what is included in the chart TBH. There's also a lot of artists posted about in the forum that aren't really indie/alternative and one of the worst decisions was the merging of the Specialist forum with the Indie forum.
August 26, 201014 yr Marina and Ellie are not specialist either. I dont mind specialist - in fact I think I prefer them as they broaden what is listened to instead of the dullard indie like Kings of Leon. Then again specialist is open to interpretation - Joanna Newsome - yes, Katie Melua - no.
August 26, 201014 yr Author I don't mind Specialist either and of course Marina and Ellie aren't specialist but it does open up the indie forum to have crap like Rumer and Norah frigging Jones posted here
