February 10, 201213 yr Interesting, it seems like everyone has their own ways to compiling their personal chart :o I base mine on roughly how many plays I had that week using Last.Fm, if a song came out and is really hyped and overplayed to bits I still chart it the position it's supposed to get. I sort of think of it as "front-loaded plays" way, like how some downloads are front-loaded in the UK charts at their week of release and so even if it fades a bit as the week goes on, it still deserved the position.. Anyways back on topic (:P) my votes have been finalized, just need to edit my presentation. Some countries have never been voted for by us and some countries that got points before are receiving none this time round :o
February 10, 201213 yr No, as I have discussed at great length elsewhere before, it is up to the individual - there are no real rules or supposed tos which is why it is a PERSONAL chart. Which can be bad in cases where a 'personal' chart is just a rehash of UK Singles chart :kink: I can hate some of your entries because they're completely different to what you usually send and they're just NOT PAVEL. Whereas Moa isn't far off from my usual style. :heehee: Would you have voted for 'A Throne Without a King pt 2'? It's SO VERY PAVEL. And Moa IS off from your usual style. The style being 'AMAZING'. And Moa isn't.
February 10, 201213 yr Would you have voted for 'A Throne Without a King pt 2'? It's SO VERY PAVEL. And Moa IS off from your usual style. The style being 'AMAZING'. And Moa isn't. It would've scored high pointage from me. :( It's a bit hard on the ears but vocal part is lovely. <3
February 10, 201213 yr Which can be bad in cases where a 'personal' chart is just a rehash of UK Singles chart :kink: Are you implying mine is? It doesn't matter if anyone's is, it is a reflection of them. No need to be a music snob.
February 10, 201213 yr Are you implying mine is? It doesn't matter if anyone's is, it is a reflection of them. No need to be a music snob. No, not yours. I just think it's silly to only include official singles when in fact you might like album non-singles much more :o Just mi opinión. Edited February 10, 201213 yr by Ljósið
February 10, 201213 yr I used to only include official singles because I had a top 40, and because I listen to so much music it would be FAR too busy. But now I have a top 75 I chart anything I hear and like. In the odd case, that will include an old song (for example Zombie by The Cranberries entered my top 20 after Christina Parrie sang it on Aussie X-Factor), but I try not to make a habit of that.
February 10, 201213 yr Daehun has officially voted :D I wonder who has yet to vote.. :unsure: Edited February 10, 201213 yr by Oricon
February 10, 201213 yr I will be voting before midnight :D No, not yours. I just think it's silly to only include official singles when in fact you might like album non-singles much more :o Just mi opinión. Funny thing is with mine, I rarely listen obsessively to new albums, more likely it will be the single or at least a featured track that I got obsessed with. And although I follow the UK chart to some extent, I also chart songs from international charts, that I find at random on blogs and on Youtube. What I have been thinking of doing is starting a retro chart. I had an album chart for a few weeks but it didn't make a lot of sense and wasn't very accurate, but a chart of the 80s and 90s songs I'm listening to a lot at the moment would work a lot better, I'm actually really oldschool. The current #1 would be First, Last, For Everything by Endgames :D
February 10, 201213 yr I listen to as much old stuff as I do new. When I say I listen to up to 800 unique tracks a week, half of these are 'classics' that I'm reliving, and the rest is made up of new albums, fresh leaks and everything in my current chart/playlist. Right now I'm listening to Energy 52's Cafe Del Mar for example, before that Pet Shop Boys' It's A Sin and before that Flo Rida's Wild Ones :lol:
February 10, 201213 yr That's a nice playlist :D What I have dilemmas about are tracks that are two or three years old but I never charted (as I didn't have a chart between c. 2001-2009) that I get really into. Like if I based my chart on plays like Oricon does, Rolf Junior & Violina's Maagiline Paev would easily be top 5 right now :lol:
February 10, 201213 yr The only time I get to listen to music is usually in the mornings before I leave for work - and even then it'll be flicking through the music channels. I have my mp3 player which I take to work but it's not like I'm able to just have it playing all day long - especially if I'm going to be making a large amount of calls in the office. Then finally when I'm home in the evenings I can properly relax and listen to music be it on my computer/YouTube videos/music channels.

Like if I based my chart on plays like Oricon does, Rolf Junior & Violina's Maagiline Paev would easily be top 5 right now :lol: I belatedly charted One More Time's Den Vilda for a few weeks at #13 two years ago. No idea why as it was already 14 years old and had I been doing my chart in 1996 it would have been a #1/#2 for sure (might have got stuck behind Gina G!), but I was listening to it SO much that I felt I just had to chart it. In the early days of my chart, which started in 1999, I'd belatedly chart early-mid 90s dance songs which I'd never got the chance to before :lol: Alex Party, Berri, Strike, Fun Factory, Awesome 3, OT Quartet and Robert Miles all spring to mid as acts who had top fives for me in 1999-2001!

The current #1 would be First, Last, For Everything by Endgames :D How odd... I was thinking of something strangely similar 30 minutes ago! :o (Great minds think alike and all that jazz...) I heard Mis-Teeq's Scandalous and thought maybe I could incorporate a 'classic of the week' or something to make it more interesting!
February 11, 201213 yr I did a 'retro of the week' briefly, because with my chart only having started recently, there are a lot of songs that I never got the chance to chart. Unfortunately, there was always either more than one or there weren't any that I had a pressing need to chart, so I gave up on that. Now if I have a few retro entries, I'll enter them, but they are always massively disadvantaged compared to how much I've been listening to them, due to their age. Mainly so I can say I charted them. Right now, I have two entries from Nightwish's 2007 album (incidentally, the two times they've been entered into BJSC in the past) and an old Eurovision winner in the lower reaches of my chart, plus a 6 month old album track that isn't a single in my top 10. It really isn't necessarily what's currently hot in the outside world. And my chart gets crazy some weeks and really quiet on others. So I can enter loads of things, but sometimes it gets a bit much. All I can say is I try to use it to represent which tracks I'm currently liking, no matter what they are. With the old tracks then, the chart position hardly matters, for others, more so...
February 11, 201213 yr I do see what you're saying though. For me it would have to be a seperate chart though, I just can't judge Giorgio Moroder on the same level as David Guetta, you know :lol: Just voted anyway. I meant midnight CET obviously :kink:
February 11, 201213 yr All 12 editions of my chart have featured two things: 1] About You Now 2] Three I only ever charted what I was loving, regardless of how old it was. Three pre-dates my earliest chart by 4 years and the last by 6.
February 11, 201213 yr Unless you don't have a personal chart, it can be easy to predict who gets what points by just checking on what they charted and the position. Unless no BJSC entries chart of course :P Edited February 11, 201213 yr by Oricon
