TSE bungeejumping all over the scoreboard.

:o crestfallen

15 places for me :lol:

10 points seperating the top 10. that's tight,

quite happy to quit now, if that's alright with everyone.

18 amazing :w00t:

woe...I wasn't expecting a 12 from wholune..thanks

can someone tell me where the 9 points came from for the Spods, I'm blind......

oh dear

The premise is simple. We just discuss what we were listening to in 1998. What disappointed us. What surprised us. What we loved back then. What grew on us since. I've cobbled together a vague list of albums to start as talking points. Here goes Air -Moon Safari Autechre - LP5 Beck - Mutations Bell and Sebastian - The Boy With the Arab Strap Beta Band - 3 Eps Boards of Canada - Music Has the Right to Children Elliot Smith - XO Embrace - The Good Will Out Fatboy Slim - You've Come A Long Way Baby Garbage - Version 2.0 Hole - Celebrity Skin Lauren Hill - The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill Madonna - Ray of Light Manic Street Preachers - This is My Truth Tell Me Yours Massive Attack - Mezzanine Mercury Rev - Deserter’s Songs Neutral Mik Hotel - In the Aeroplane Over the Sea Outkast - Aquemini PJ Harvey - Is This Desire? Placebo - Without You I'm Nothing Pulp - This Is Hardcore REM - Up Royal Trux - Accelerator Smashing Pumpkins - Adore Sparklehorse - Good Morning Spider Tori Amos - From the Choirgirl Hotel Tortoise - TNT

This is certainly the most excited I have been about a final this year - not because of my own (doomed) entry, but because there's so many great songs competing.

I'd be happy with top 35.

Me either.

Cool. Thanks.

I love that second Shed Seven album.

Dreamer hitting number 1 always stood out in my memory as the point when the shops, the distributors and the record companies all started co-operating to maximise sales in week 1. Was it also at that point when discounts were applied to week 1 stock to encourage buyers to buy in week 1?

Great sales for Oasis considering fans didn't have to buy multiple formats to get all the b-sides, just 1 CD.

Hmmmm. I'll join later.

today

:lol:

Wow. Got through with my risk entry. Thanks for the votes. Bribes are in the post, as we speak.

Can I give -10 to Galway Girl?

Mine will arrive later today!

does anyone know what the record number of weeks for a static top 3 is?
