Posted July 1, 201312 yr http://i.imgur.com/8ZCHl5K.png (our fabulous banner comes courtesy of Rob of the robot variety) It's time for this summer's pop forum extravaganza and for the first time ever, we want to find out what is Buzzjack's Ultimate Pop Album! This competition has never been run before in the pop forum, but we're making a change after intense discussions with the Lounge mods resulted in us letting them have the artist rate :) We are also introducing a brand new format for this Ultimate Competition. It will seem familiar for the first couple of stages, but you will find out more about this format change when we reach the final stage of the competition towards the end of the month! For now, we would like everyone to nominate up to 30 albums each that can have been released at any time but they must have received a proper release. By a proper release, we mean that the album must have been able to have been purchased in some way. Those of you who are big fans of artists that do not release in the UK do not need to worry though as the proper release doesn't have to have been in the UK, just as long as it has been properly released anywhere in the world. This also means that you can nominate albums that may have just been released last week! Finally, even though this competition is Ultimate Pop Album, don't think that this limits you to just nominating albums by pop artists. While we expect this as we are running the competition in the pop forum, theoretically a pop album stands for a popular album and a popular album can come from any genre so feel free to nominate any album that you love! This means you, M.I.A fans :D Please ensure that you have posted your nominations in this thread by Monday 8th July at 8pm BST. Your nominations do not need to be in any ranked order as they are all worth one nomination. The top 100 albums, or the closest number we can get to that depending on the amount of albums with the same number of nominations, will be revealed shortly after the closing date as mentioned above. Thank you for taking part and happy voting ^_^ (p.s if you nominate a Greatest Hits album I will personally set you on fire)

July 1, 201312 yr A Rox fan :o I had no idea anyone remembered her but thanks for the blast from the past, 'My Baby Left Me' was absolutely wonderful :wub: Indeed it was! Absolutely ADORE the album, not sure if you've heard it but there are SO many standouts. Criminally overlooked by the public. :(
July 1, 201312 yr I don't think it's covered in the rules but are we allowed to put forward Greatest Hits/Singles Collection etc.? I ask because I'd nominate ABBA's "Gold" but I don't really know any of their individual albums well enough to put any of them forward, same with a couple more artists. If not I might use this as a chance to check out some of these albums that I'm not familiar with.
