Championship Round: Acclaimed Music best of the best - ILM's number one Songs picks from the 80's polls

i hope everyone enjoyed this series, i made it up as i went along. it was fun even though it was a pain in the ass.

There is absolutely no question who the winner of this collossally important poll should be. It is not a close race. It is not a race at all. It is a slaughter. A winding of the wire round the throat. A garotting of the goats. A grand levelling of all the houses by one of the most flabbergastingly grand songs of all time. A beat up. A mis-match. An overgrown pissing patch: Shannon - Let the Music Play.

Talking Heads vs. Kate Bush vs. Madonna for me.

For second place you mean?

Bring The Noise.

Second place to When Doves Cry, maybe.

Took a minute of consideration, but yeah, Shannon is what I'd go nutty for in the club above even Prince (so hard to admit to myself).

Bring the Noise forever but I voted Little Red Corvette

Let the Music Play and Ceremony follow

Little Red Corvette

for me this is between Prince or New Order. think i'm going for "Bizarre Love Triangle."

Prince + Kate Bush + Neneh Cherry would be a bizarre love triangle.

Personally, I think the Shannon song 'Let The Music Play' is the best. I used to think dancing was some kind of unnatural satan ritual but actually I was just pretending. Now I realise a dance is actually just a dance.

I guess i am definitely not the kind of person who believes in making out once (love them and leave them fast) although I have to admit to occasionally having a pocket full of horses.

what i'd really like to hear is ilx user Hinklepicker's thoughts on the song "Let the Music Play" by Shannon

I will be the only person who votes for "Bring The Noize" because I liked it before Scott Ian told me to.

all these songs are classics, some more than others:

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

1986 (tie) Prince and The Revolution - Kiss 0

whut

That's a shame - if not a travesty of epic proportionality. Shannon was the best one here by streets and bounds - better even than When Doves Cry by Prince.

nope

Nope to you.
