There's a shameful lack of Gang Gang Dance votes here! After all the hype they were receiving before the album release, they seem to have been rather overlooked in year end charts, despite Eye Contact's reception being rather good, yes?

I voted for GGD! What I'm disappointed with is that I truly believe 'Batman' by Lower Dens is a song many people here would like, but I don't reckon anyone's bothered to listen to it. At least my other choices have all had at least one more vote each.

02. Bjork - Crystalline

03. Marina and the Diamonds - Fear and Loathing

04. Kate Bush - 50 Words For Snow

09. Lana Del Rey - Video Games

10. M83 - Midnight City

11. Lykke Li - I Follow Rivers

12. Gotye & Kimbra - Somebody That I Used To Know

I was actually tempted to vote for them thinking they were the American shoegaze outfit Weekend who had a few decent tracks out this year! Then I realised the song titles didn't match up.

So, nobody gives a damn about "Mirage" by Ladytron? :blink:

 

Here's the song, just in case you missed it:

 

When I listen to Post-Break-Up Sex I end up going into Somewhere Only We Know from Keane.
He's well rubbish :puke2:

I'll pretend to not have seen the first part of this post and say that Out Getting Ribs is quite awesome indeed. It's been released early last year so I completely forgot about it.

This. 'MindKilla' is superb. I'm more bummed about the lack of WU LYF though.

I listened to all of the ones I'd never heard before (of which there was almost 50) and voted for the ones I liked most, but the ones mentioned above were no where near being amongst my favourites of previously unheard songs!

Added all up so far, found it a bit surprising.

 

2 songs are yet to receive a vote.

1 song which someone said would do really well is outside the top 100

63 songs (exactly half) have reached 100 points

A song I thought would finish in the top 3 is only just in the top 20

In terms of points the song in 3rd is closer to the song standing in 42nd than the song winning

I will vote tomorrow on this, have to listen to a few I haven't heard yet.
