5. Keeps it nice and concise and not too difficult.

I think it should be up to each person how many options he wants to choose from. Maybe have the same poll with every possible variation of choices.

Exactly 7, 12 or 21. I like mystic symbolism of numbers.

Lol. I like your 5. Keeps it all steady. 23435 huh? I still haven't determined how often to put the polls out, hell I might wait til I retire lol. Hopefully I'll get them out before we are all dead.

I could do that, but I'm afraid of the "hogger" song taking all the votes and not getting a feel for 2nd 3rd place etc. Or you may ignore the "biggie" and go for another just because. I'm starting to think 5 with parts and the top 2 or 3 move on to further rounds.

Two song polls always present a false dichotomy. I like at least four or five options. Voted for 8 - 10. Up to 15 is okay I guess, more than that is too many and invevitably include selections I am not familiar with.
