I thought this tune would show up..
I should have picked it myself, but I thought someone else would do it. Alas
it's like smelling a gas leak on the street. 0 -

Sure.
I plan to breakdown the songs eliminated into scored under X points, scored between X & Y.
I’ll reveal the most generous and stingiest judges. What judges have worn off the zero on their keyboards
I know what songs received most nominations. What artist had the most different songs nominated. All that stuff. Once all votes are in I’ll have the song that received the most 20s, 0s. What their average score was.0 -

Loads of stats Strawbs, love itAre ppl giving 20s as in they would like to see the song in the next round, but not a 20/20 song? Maybe a yay or nay would have been enough, though maybe not enough to create a separation
For me, 20s have been songs I really love. I think I've only dished out about 15 or so in the first 10 rounds0 -

Hmmm, I wonder who can be in the running for this?0 -
Yay done!
I don't think I'll end up as the stingiest scorer, I really enjoyed a lot of the entries but some of them I really didn't think deserved to be there - but I reckon half of my noms will probably be culled because I think there's such difference in musical taste overall - I won't take it personally :mad:0 -

Had a bout of insomnia last night and was thinking about this thread, as you do, and the wonderful female/female-fronted artists that didn't get a look in at the end.
Fiona Apple, Sharon Van Etten and Janelle Monáe have already been mentioned but a few more that came to mind that I was surprised and/or disappointed nobody picked:
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - would have thought 'Maps' was a fairly decent bet for someone to submit.
Goldfrapp - 'Strict Machine' and 'Ooh La La' are two of the finest pop songs this century. Their softer stuff, like 'A&E' and the whole 'Tales Of Us' album, is also really good.
Lykke Li - 'Sadness Is a Blessing' would have come very close to making my final 15, as would the original album version (NOT the poxy dance remix with the awful piano) of 'I Follow Rivers'
Lorde - ok so she's still very young and has only two albums to her name, but any of 'Team', 'Yellow Flicker Beat' or 'Green Light' would have been worthy of inclusion here.
Warpaint - 'Undertow' is one of my favourite songs of all time, alas it's one I generally associate with listening to when feeling depressed so that may be why it escaped my memory when doing the shortlist (I must have been in a good mood that day!)
Lauryn Hill - Fugees 'Killing Me Softly' made the list but nothing from 'The Miseducation...' album did.
En Vogue - 'Don't Let Go' is a fúcking CHOOOOOOON!
All Saints - 'Never Ever', 'War of Nerves', 'Pure Shores', 'Black Coffee', 'One Strike'.....yep, definitely the best British girl band of the modern age.
I'm sure there are loads more out there.
Strawbs, we're gonna need another 14 playlists!

Ok just onto Part 10 now. Whoever nominated Stars - Grace Potter and also Paradise - Within Temptation gets my seal of approval.
On another note. Fcuk Sinead O Connor, Nina Simone and Madonna who have about 20 entries each. They're making me lose the will to live again
On another another note.... WHY with the 8 minute songs AIN'T nobody got time for that with the amount entered. 0 -

Lykke Li was in my initial list and didn't make the final cut - mostly because I couldn't decide between I Follow Rivers and Gubshot.
I considered Yeah Yeah Yeahs briefly, would have gone for Heads Will Roll, but not a huge fan, so that's gone too.
Completely forgot about Goldfrapp - again though so many good songs, where do you start?0 -

Made it to the start of 14, so I can add to the "where are...?" lists
No britpop?! No Elastica, no Sleeper, no Echobelly, no Republica...
I can't be the only person my age, can I?
EDIT: I'm not a fan, but no Kylie?! And how was "Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman" Britney's only entry? And "Halo" Beyoncé's?0 -
