Acclaimed Music Top 40 Songs from 2006 poll

one more before a break.

back to black

seeing as the knife are going to win this by a zilion miles, probably in a 1-2 finish, and probably deservedly,

i'm going to vote for (the first) muse

xox

1. Scissor Sisters - I Don't Feel Like Dancing'
2. Gnarls Barkley - Crazy
3. Justin Timberlake - SexyBack

fuckin hope Crazy doesn't win

That camera obscura song is so so so good

totally missed "Kick Push". I know we get clowned for liking Lupe on this board but always loved that song.

ti over camera obscura

Bros

don't you know i got key by the three

Roscoe

"We Share Our Mother's Health", followed closely by Camera Obscura. They seem almost garishly quaint now but I still have soft spots for "Pull Shapes" and "Young Folks".

This list is pretty great. Camera Obscura, probably. or junior boys or pipettes.

Maneater, of course.

strong list!

12 963 T.I. - What You Know
20 1657 The Knife - Silent Shout
36 2507 Beyoncé - Irreplaceable
^^all great

I just love that darn whistling melody in "Young Folks" so much.

criminal how cassie's "me & u" didn't place in the top 40

I don't have any cred so I have nothing to lose: Knights of Cydonia

^5

knights of cydonia is easily the best muse song/maybe only good thing they've done

can't go past we share our mother's health though

10 928 Panda Bear - Bro's
17 1427 Junior Boys - In the Morning
20 1657 The Knife - Silent Shout
22 1915 Beirut - Postcards from Italy
25 2047 Midlake - Roscoe

^^ all great. Feel like it has to be Silent Shout, but Roscoe is fantastic. Will flip a coin.

1 66 Gnarls Barkley - Crazy
2 195 Amy Winehouse - Rehab
8 670 Justin Timberlake - My Love
12 963 T.I. - What You Know
14 1070 Amy Winehouse - Back to Black
18 1534 Justin Timberlake - SexyBack
20 1657 The Knife - Silent Shout
27 2174 Nelly Furtado - Promiscuous
28 2213 Nelly Furtado - Maneater
30 2268 Scissor Sisters - I Don't Feel Like Dancin'
31 2293 Lupe Fiasco - Kick Push
37 2534 Christina Aguilera - Ain't No Other Man
39 2645 The Knife - We Share Our Mother's Health

all of these are good to great

this is prob Crazy vs Promiscuous vs We Share Our Mother's Health for me

Anyone of these could get my vote.

Hot Chip - And I Was a Boy from School
The Pipettes - Pull Shapes
Camera Obscura - Lloyd, I'm Ready to Be Heartbroken
Nelly Furtado - Maneater
The Knife - We Share Our Mother's Health
Midlake - Roscoe

This list is better than I was expecting. I always think of 2006 being not a brilliant year for music. Maybe it just wasn't for albums?

Ooh there are some doozies here.

I Don't Feel Like Dancin'

WTF is 'We Share Our Mother's Health' doing all the way at the bottom of that list? Super weird.

It was never as popular as "Silent Shout" IIRC

Kind of saddened by no "Marble House" or "Like A Pen"

Bros is one of the most passive aggressive songs ever, amazing how much venom is in Person Pitch.

Wow, voting for literally anything on this list would be a heavy compromise for me.

There's a lot of horseshit on this list.

KNIGHTS OF CYDONIA

was really hoping "Dick Around" by Sparks would make an appearance here

T.I. - What You Know

threw a vote in for ti ti

Fucking hell, Crazy is over ten years old.

I will probably vote for it, maybe Wolf Like Me or Back to Black. Not a stellar list.

Good list, weird order.

Pipettes, Camera Obscura and Scissor Sisters are the only songs that really jump out for me. Lots of stuff I haven't heard in years or never heard at all (UK centric?). I like the Junior Boys but not in single-song chunks. Voted Pipettes.

Acclaimed Top Songs 2006

^Spotify

this playlist made my day today.

The Funeral

I am confused about how two songs from Black Holes and Revelations made this list and neither of them is "Starlight".

Well, 'Knights of Cydonia' made it because it's the best thing Muse have ever done. I do prefer 'Starlight' to 'Supermassive Black Hole', though, probably because it reminds me of Midge Ure-era Ultravox.

so far, no-one has admitted to voting for "Crazy." it's a brilliant song, easily in my Top 3 but won't get my vote here.

i wonder how the three Knife songs will turn out in overall placement. all three songs are great and i'm almost positive i voted for the album in Acclaimed Album poll. all three won't get my vote here.

i think the Muse order is correct: Knights of Cydonia > Supermassive Black Hole >> 69 5353 Muse - Starlight.

Starlight is the best thing Muse ever did. Only worthwhile thing. A slightly better Keane, that is kinda what they could pull off.

Crazy is a brilliantly composed track but I wouldn't be sad if I never heard it again.

you might be happy to hear it again, though
