Posted April 6, 201114 yr Inspired from 90's Number Ones/Twos Rate... This is a classic rate using every song that is a modern classic. What will happen is there will be 20 rounds, the first being 1991, then 1992 etc. up to round 20 which will be 2010. After the 20 rounds, the top 5 from every year will then be put together for one final rate which will make up a top 100 of the past two decades. How you rate the songs; you rate every song that is a modern classic, you just rate your nine favourites and your least favourite. You give +10 points to your favourite song, and the rest are as follows; +10 Favourite Song +9 2nd Favourite Song +8 3rd Favourite Song +7 4th Favourite +6 5th Favourite +5 6th Favourite +4 7th Favourite +3 8th Favourite +2 9th Favourite -1 Least Favourite These are the songs you need to rate; Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit Massive Attack - Unfinished Sympathy R.E.M. - Losing My Religion U2 - One Metallica - Enter Sandman Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Under The Bridge Tribe Called Quest - Can I Kick It? Primal Scream - Loaded KLF - 3am Eternal Guns N Roses - Live And Let Die You have 2 days for every round to rate. This means the deadline is Friday afternoon and hopefully round 2 (1992) will be up on Friday evening. Edited April 6, 201114 yr by Griffo
April 6, 201114 yr how do you determine which songs are modern classics? otherwise, yeah I like the idea +10 U2 - One :heart: (the original and still the best imo) +9 Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit +8 Metallica - Enter Sandman +7 Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Under The Bridge +6 R.E.M. - Losing My Religion +5 Massive Attack - Unfinished Sympathy +4 Guns N Roses - Live And Let Die +3 KLF - 3am Eternal +2 Primal Scream - Loaded -1 Tribe Called Quest - Can I Kick It?

April 6, 201114 yr +10 Primal Scream - Loaded :heart: +9 Massive Attack - Unfinished Sympathy +8 Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit +7 U2 - One +6 Metallica - Enter Sandman +5 R.E.M. - Losing My Religion +4 Guns N Roses - Live And Let Die +3 Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Under The Bridge +2 KLF - 3am Eternal -1 Tribe Called Quest - Can I Kick It? So difficult to choose. The only one that i don't like is Can I Kick It?. Top 4 is beyond great songs which i love, and giving 7 points to U2 is ridiculous but it had big competitors.
April 6, 201114 yr Who decided if they're modern classics? Anyhoo, here's mine... 10 Massive Attack - Unfinished Sympathy 9 KLF - 3am Eternal 8 Tribe Called Quest - Can I Kick It? 7 Primal Scream - Loaded 6 Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit 5 R.E.M. - Losing My Religion 4 U2 - One 3 Metallica - Enter Sandman 2 Guns N Roses - Live And Let Die -1 Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Under The Bridge
April 6, 201114 yr At least there were some I really don't like (GNR's pretty pointless cover and I've never liked RHCP) Boo to those who don't like ATCQ though!!

April 6, 201114 yr I've never even heard that Primal Scream song... This doesn't seem to be based on anything.
April 6, 201114 yr +10 U2 - One +09 Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Under The Bridge +08 Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit +07 R.E.M. - Losing My Religion +06 Massive Attack - Unfinished Sympathy +05 Guns N Roses - Live And Let Die +04 Metallica - Enter Sandman +03 Primal Scream - Loaded +02 KLF - 3am Eternal -01 Tribe Called Quest - Can I Kick It? Nearly impossible to order the top 4 :(
April 6, 201114 yr I can't really argue with that list but One came out as a single in 1992. Achtung Baby was released in 1991 so One is probably a 1991 song
April 6, 201114 yr And Bray if you don't like this then you don't have to vote. I only take constructive criticism.
April 6, 201114 yr I've never even heard that Primal Scream song... :blink: :blink: :blink: While we're on the subject though, it was released in 1990 - even if it did appear on Screamadelica in 1991. Edited April 6, 201114 yr by richie
April 6, 201114 yr Come on, A Tribe Called Quest?, G'n'R Live And Let Die? They weren't even classics of the week they were released. The U2 track isn't one of their most widely regarded either. No vote from me on this unless there is further information on what it's based on. You could have such a better list - The La's "There She Goes" for example. "Insanity" by Oceanic from a dancey direction. "Set Adrift On Memory Bliss" by PM Dawn is another one. It may have been a better idea to get suggestions for such a list before starting the vote. -- Richard
April 6, 201114 yr "Insanity" by Oceanic from a dancey direction. "Set Adrift On Memory Bliss" by PM Dawn is another one. Better than A Tribe Called Quest?? No chance!
