|
|
|
It’s that time of the year folks. No, I’m not talking about the start of the NFL season, I’m talking about the time to decide FF’s favorite artist!
Here’s what I need from you:
• PM me a list of your top artist of all time (lists can be between 15-25, any list under 15 will not be counted, any artist after 25 will not be counted). Try to add as many artists as you deem worthy.
• Number your list from 1 to 25 (#1 should be your favorite)
• Try to add a song to the list as well, the song can be your favorite or a song that you think will best introduce new listeners to this artist. Again, try to do this for as many artist on your list as possible. No links needed.
Example:
Code: | 1. Justin Beiber - Boyfriend
2. Carly Rae Jepsen - Call Me Maybe |
Scoring System:
25 points for your #1 artist, 24 points for the 2nd artist, and so on.
Notes:
*Voting will end Friday the 21st at 5 pm est, so you have a whole week to get your votes in.
*Don't post your list in the thread, feel free to discuss who's on your list but I would like the results to be as much of a surprise as possible
*This is a top 100 list but I will be posting the HM's next Friday.
Let's keep the discussion going for this week before the lists gets started. What are some artist on your list that no one else will have? Who's #25 on your list? Biggest risers from the last list? Who drops the the furthest from last list?
Here's are the results from last time:
Quote: | 1. Eminem
2. The Beatles
3. Kanye West
4. Tupac
5. Queen
6. Pink Floyd
7. Jay-Z
8. Atmosphere
9. Red Hot Chili Peppers
10. The Killers |
I would also like to have a small write-up for about 30 or so of the artist but I'm going to need your help. If you are interested PM me and let me know what specific artists you would like to do. Title the PM 'Write-ups' so I know it's not a list.
With all that said, time to get your votes in! _________________

50 is too many. Two 25th place votes cancel out one 1st place vote. Probably going to skew the results. _________________

I'll reserve a spot now, probably won't do my list until tonight, as it will take some thought. _________________

It's hard to come up with a true overall top 10 list...I mean look at some of these names...Atmosphere, Killers, Kanye West??? How does this happen?
I remember a bracket style thread from a few years back (rock only). The Beatles went down in the 2nd round to STP I believe and almost lost to Collective Soul in the 1st. I believe the final four was Guns N Roses, Metallica, Pearl Jam and Led Zeppelin. Queen, Pink Floyd, and RHCP were in it as well. If people do lists up to a certain number, the Beatles are more likely to be on a list....but the high majority who don't include the Beatles on their list enjoy STP more.
I also gotta wonder where The Who and Pearl Jam ranked on last year's results. They tied in a thread a few years ago for most posters voting them as their favorite artist. |

I don't think there was one of these threads last year, those rankings are from 2010.
Also if you want to see your favorite artist higher on the list, send in your votes! _________________

Mine will be in later today. This is tougher than I thought it was going to be. |
