August 10, 20222 yr Easier (Less joint pain LOL), like how some people say Arctic Monkeys and not "The Arctic Monkeys" Not really though, just ‘Arctic Monkeys’ is the correct band name!
August 10, 20222 yr Done the rest now too, stop me forgetting doing it weekly. 14: Caribou - Can't Do Without You Royksopp & Robyn - Do It Again Wolf Alice - Moaning Lisa Smile 15: Alice Glass - Stillbirth Tame Impala - The Less I Know the Better Wolf Alice - Giant Peach 16: Bastille - Good Grief blink-182 - Bored To Death 17: Bicep - Glue The XX - I Dare You 18: alt-J - 3WW Idles - Danny Nedelko Metric - Dressed To Suppress Sigrid - Sucker Punch 19: Blossoms - Your Girlfriend Dave - Black Fontaines DC - Boys In The Better Land 20: Bicep feat.

August 10, 20222 yr Learning from previous RotDs, I'm frontloading my nominations for 2012 and will compensate with fewer in later years: 2012 Jake Bugg - Lightning Bolt (The) Killers - Runaways Lumineers - Ho Hey Public Enemy - Harder Than You Think Sub Focus (feat. Alpines) - Tidal Wave Someone else please nominate: Bruno Mars - Locked Out Of Heaven Nicki Minaj - Starships Skrillex (feat. Sirah) - Bangarang 2013 Bruno Mars - When I Was Your Man HAIM - Don't Save Me Neighbourhood - Sweater Weather The latter was nominated last year for 2012, but I'm fairly sure it wasn't released until 2013 - similarly I'm pleased to see the nomination for HAIM - Forever, but I think that belongs in 2013 instead of 2012 as well. Just to ensure these aren't killed off before their time!
August 10, 20222 yr I put Forever as 2012 as it was originally released in June of that year, but it charted in the UK in 2013, looks like it was in the latter in here last year which makes sense. Edited August 10, 20222 yr by RabbitFurCoat
August 11, 20222 yr Bros is a great shout. Actually, is Bros 2013? I've nominated Silk for 2015 and they're on the same album - was Bros released as a single way before the album?
August 11, 20222 yr Author The latter was nominated last year for 2012, but I'm fairly sure it wasn't released until 2013 - similarly I'm pleased to see the nomination for HAIM - Forever, but I think that belongs in 2013 instead of 2012 as well. Just to ensure these aren't killed off before their time! Forever is in the 2013 noms. We go through the noms and see where they are in previous years ROTD and try to see if the year is right. So there has been some movement in terms of years for some of the nominations. However Forever is (as per the second post in with the 2013 noms - as with last year (and I believe other ROTDs) Edited August 11, 20222 yr by ElectroBoy
August 11, 20222 yr Author Taylor Swift - All Too Well (Taylor's Version) If ATW doesn't count as the original is in for 2012, please add Caribou - Never Come Back to 2020. Yeah after talking about the Taylor Versions, we've decided not to include them as otherwise those songs will end up getting another 10 years on this. So i'll include your alternative :)
August 11, 20222 yr Actually, is Bros 2013? I've nominated Silk for 2015 and they're on the same album - was Bros released as a single way before the album? Bros was their first ever single, released before the Blush EP in 2013. They re-recorded it for the album (turning it from a 10/10 to a 8/10 imo) and the original hasn't been available officially since. UeQvZx1Ymts
August 11, 20222 yr 2012: Demi Lovato - Give Your Heart A Break Little Mix - DNA Pink! - Blow Me (One Last Kiss) someone else please nominate: Little Mix - Wings Owl City & Carly Rae Jepsen - Good Time 2013: (just gonna nominate 2 here & save an extra slot for a future year) Bridgit Mendler - Ready Or Not Stooshe - Slip someone else please nominate: Katy Perry - Roar Selena Gomez - Come & Get It Yeah after talking about the Taylor Versions, we've decided not to include them as otherwise those songs will end up getting another 10 years on this. So i'll include your alternative :) I do think All Too Well (10 min version) should be included cos it is vastly different enough to the original (as well as actually charting unlike the original), though I agree with the likes of Love Story/You Belong With Me/IKYWT/WANEGBT/22 Taylor version's etc not getting included as they are basically the same as the originals.

August 11, 20222 yr as for All Too Well, it doesn't make much sense having it in both 2012 and 2021, I'd say just vote for whichever version you like the most in the 2012 round. next year we can perhaps re-evaluate whether the new version can remain eligible for 2021. (though I'm on erring to the side of no as the song was already fairly well known before)
August 11, 20222 yr 2012 Everything Everything - Cough Cough M.I.A. - Bad Girls The Weeknd - Wicked Games 2013 Arctic Monkeys - Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High? Daft Punk feat. Julian Casablancas - Instant Crush Two Door Cinema Club - Changing Of The Seasons
August 11, 20222 yr Bros was their first ever single, released before the Blush EP in 2013. They re-recorded it for the album (turning it from a 10/10 to a 8/10 imo) and the original hasn't been available officially since. UeQvZx1Ymts Ooh interesting, thanks. I'll check out the 2013 version
