Icehouse-We can get together
OMD-Enola Gay

Were left off the list?

They both got voted for but they didn't make the Top 100.

"We Can Get Together" came in at 686 (2 votes) and "Enola Gay" came in at 227 (4 votes).

So, so close. Missed it by [i]that[/i] much.

I think the reason that a number of songs were left off the top 100 is because it is a top 100, not a top 200 or top 500. I know I left a lot of songs off my list (how could I possibly have omitted The Smiths?!?!)

I was one of the two who voted for "We Can Get Together". Not many of mine made the top 100 whatsoever. But, that's jus' how it goes

Top 100 lists can only reflect who chooses to vote. So, fair is fair. I'm fine with the results.

Cool list. Heh, so much for submitting mine...Maybe I should start working on it now for next New Year's Eve.

And no a-ha? For shame!

For the love of God...What the Hell is the fascination with "Doot Doot"?????[}:)]

There's a couple of errors I found while going
through the csv file. I discovered a 6th vote for
"The Chameleons - Swamp Thing" because it was
under "Chameleons - Swamp Thing" posted by NuWaveRx.
I also came across another "B-Movie - Nowhere Girl"
posted by KYYX4ever as "B Movie - Nowhere Girl".

The corrections are as follows:

B-Movie Nowhere Girl 62 15

The Chameleons Swamp Thing 27 6

When I posted my list, I didn't use "The" (except for
"The The") because I'm not sure what the criteria is
for using "The" or not but when Mike P complied the
list, he added them. I plan to post my findings of the
entire results in chunks of 100 songs or so as to show
the complete list. My results will look like this:

1) Joy Division - Love Will Tear Us Apart (80) 8-8-8-7-7-6-6-6-5-5-4-3-3-1-1-1-1
2) B-Movie - Nowhere Girl (62) 7-7-6-6-6-6-5-4-4-3-3-2-1-1-1



...and I haven't felt so alive, in years.

Yep, there were a lot of inconsistencies in spelling that I didn't catch the first time, so below is a revised list -- now featuring the Top 287 (Score of 8 or more).

Notice that a few lucky peeps propelled their #1 choice into the Top 287 with only their one vote! It sure would be interesting to see what we'd get with 100 or more submissions ... oh well, there's always this coming November![:D] In the meantime, Blir's awesome <a href="/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=22167">cumulative list</a> will do.

Here's the updated <a href="/samples/temp/TopSongs2007.csv">CSV file</a>

Nice list Mike. Thanks for taking the time to do this. Man , that sure would be one sweet greatest hits collection.

[club80]

Thanks Mike!
Always interesting to see these lists.



We didn't sell a lot of records, but somehow we left an impression.

My take on it. Where I went out, when it was popular, it was always the last song of the night. A nice slow dance after a night of hard dancing. Of course, most times the partners needed each other to hold each other up!(not me though, I was an angel[}:)]) It was the pick up song at the end of the night. I think it's nostalgic. I still can't listen to Stairway To Heaven without thinking of the last dance of the night at a high school dance.

I always liked the song and then I looked up the video. Thought it was Twisted Sister at first. The image is seared into my brain forever. Here I expected some nice, clean cut looking guy (á la Tony Hadley),and got something a total opposite. Sometimes it's better not knowing [:(]. Truely a case of video killed the radio star for me.
