I agree that Not Gonna Get Us by Tatu is a better song than All The Things She Said and Never Tear Us Apart is also my favourite by INXS of the songs I know by them.

 

 

Oh how did I forget t.A.T.u., they definitely should've been in my top 30. But then they'd have had more points than the Rolling Stones which would seem weird :lol: Glad to see them here without my help!

There would be nothing weird about that, this is Buzzjack after all :lol:

I suspected Cremey would've been the other YYYs voter. They're an incredible singles band, only really love It's Blitz! of their albums which is why I didn't rank them higher.

 

Good to see System of a Down getting a vote, they wouldn't have been far away from getting points from me, a really good couple of albums which I still listen to occasionally.

Dircadirca said "Workmanlike music programmed to be liked by me. One excellent album followed by a decade of killer tracks"

 

Some great bands in that reveal - esp Skunk Anansie but Biffy so low!!! If I had submitted my votes they would've got 19 more points. #Justice4Biffy
oh 2 of big fav ones, Skunk Anansie and Travis
Did not know skunk anasie didn’t have a top 10 !!

yes, Skunk Anansie came very close to the top 10 a bunch of times, they had 7 top 20 hits I believe

the highest was Brazen at #11 and Hedonism at #13

Can't believe I forgot Cocteau Twins!

 

Also can't believe RFC didn't vote for Interpol!!!

Awww Travis didn't deserve to finish so low, nor did Biffy or Skunk Anansie actually, some great bands in that selection. Skunk Anansie's 'Stoosh' is an outstanding album!

 

The Mamas and The Papas have some great songs too, obvs 'California Dreamin' is an absolute classic :wub:

This was a mistake and of the three I forgot that I'd likely have given points to would have had the highest, about 17 probably.
