July 14, 2024Jul 14 Hearing the intro to Orbital's Satan for the first time was a slightly terrifying childhood memory That's a sample from Butthole Surfers btw
July 14, 2024Jul 14 And of course what we're all here for Voters chart! 53 Severin 174 Well done to ...Ready for it, Spiceboy, and Jay who have yet to lose an act! You see, I prefer to look at it from the other angle, in that it's goid to have a more individual taste :D
July 14, 2024Jul 14 Good shout for Killing Joke, 'Love Like Blood' is one of my 80s favourites, though I haven't delved much further into their discography. Not surprised that I'm towards the bottom of the voters chart with my self-imposed voting restrictions. I'm thinking The Clash won't appear now without my vote and it's looking like The Verve will be left pointless again, but we'll see.
July 14, 2024Jul 14 You see, I prefer to look at it from the other angle, in that it's goid to have a more individual taste :D I was going to say exactly the same! No disrespect intended to anyone else but I’m proud to be in the middle of the table - best of both worlds. 6 unique acts (of which 5 are New Entries) - and more exciting: 2 more of my New Entries (from the 90s and 00s) left to come.
July 14, 2024Jul 14 Still only 1 of mine out and shocked that it was Evanescene Completely forgot about both AC/DC and Disturbed which has annoyed me as they would both 100% be in my top 30 above some that I’ve voted for if I’d remembered 🙈
July 14, 2024Jul 14 I had forgotten Lukas Graham are one-hit-wonder :o A solo voter here as well. Top 15 for moi in the voters chart. I guess this is not bad. :P I'm really surprised there are 3 voters that didn't lose anything yet. :o If I'm not mistaken I've already lost only S Club Juniors, The KLF and Rudimental. Surprised my 9 pointer wasn't already revealed and I think there's only 1 voter here that could vote for them and this person starts with J ;) Edited July 14, 2024Jul 14 by Jason

July 15, 2024Jul 15 A lot there I like some songs by. B*witched, Boney M and even a few Boyzone songs too. At least it's just my one pointer out today in Veronicas who I came round to more so from 2014 but '4eva' is a bop too.
July 15, 2024Jul 15 Oh no - I really should have given points to Vampire Weekend, absolutely love them :/
July 15, 2024Jul 15 B*witches was the biggest one for me that I completely forgot. Should’ve given them points. Oh well.
July 15, 2024Jul 15 'A-Punk' will likely forever be my favourite Vampire Weekend song, but from this year 'Capricorn' is stunning and may have made it past 'Holiday' as my next favourite. I charted The Veronicas - Perfect last year, but wasn't quite as keen on their earlier hits.
July 16, 2024Jul 16 Skunk Anansie is a great shout, their first couple of albums were brilliant. The singles from MGMT's first album were iconic but the quality dropped off after that. Never heard of The Cramps or Mobb Deep :unsure: Just catching up after having been away. The Cramps invented what we now call Psychobilly - a blend of Punk and Rockabilly styles. If you watched the series Wednesday, it's their version of Goo Goo Muck that Jenna does her famous dance to.

July 16, 2024Jul 16 Not the Doors and the Police falling out already. :( Faves from each have to be Riders On The Storm and Roxanne. :heart:
