Reaching a full poll house is quite the achievement and landmark. It would be too early to vote in this poll, anyway. Welcome to the site Dark Ness. You need 40 points before you can vote in polls and for that you just need to post more. If you get into conversations here that will take little time. This was done due to some abuse of the voting feature, but I like it because it encourages discussion and we can get to know new people more and they can get to know various of us better. Interactivity is the name of the game. ;) One we all have nominated one particular track (those songs will get listed in the poll) and have listened to all the nominations (that's 25 songs), it's only then that we should vote for three and list those in a post (often with comments on the song choices but that is not a requirement). That should give you some time to up your post count. Edited by Logan - June 02 2021 at 06:38 |

Amos Goldberg (professor of Genocide Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem): Yes, it's genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion.

If you want, you can choose an Annie Lennox's song, even if it wasn't included in your previous selection.

Yes, really great listening and selections. This ones an amazing poll but also very difficult. However, I can hardly wait to see final nominations.
I wish I had now put up Annie Lennox as one of my choices, another time...

I'm sorry, if you were right, I'd agree with you. Robin Williams.

After reading people's comments and listening to both songs again I think I'll nominate Lush's "Monochrome" because it feels more grand and yet also mystical, and I like the production on it better. Both songs are bonafide goosebump-inducers for me though.

If you get the chance to see her live, grab it, she's utterly spellbinding. She's normally accompanied by her husband, Sam Lakeman, on guitar & piano and during school holidays, their twins and younger daughter come on for a cameo at the end. p.s. I picked live versions because there's nowhere to hide!! Edited by Ronstein - June 01 2021 at 04:22 |

I've decided I won't be posting any more tracks, so Helium Horse Fly - Adrift it is.

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

I see that Sandy Denny gets a couple of her songs mentioned here - 'One More Chance' and 'Who Knows Where The Time Goes', but my absolute favourite of hers has to be 'All Our Days'. The music itself is hauntingly beautiful to begin with, and when you add in her gorgeous voice as well...
A simply stunning song imho. |

Welcome to the polls. Janis Ian “Tea
and Sympathy” A stellar artist, I do
know of her and actually have spoken with her several times, as for a time I
worked for a Whole Foods in Nashville and she and her partner shopped
there. She was also my first customer to
greet in the store on early opening day, nice lady. Quite the storied career, she was also the
first musical guest on Saturday Night Live, along with Billy Preston.
I do know this song, so can’t vote for it, but it is a perfect choice
for here and many others may not be aware of it, or her. Brings me to tears every time.

One of the most emotional songs ever written (and sung) by a female artist:

good to know, I gotta make up my mind between Dida and Inga (Atlantis). Funny coincidence - all singers I chose here have a 4 letter name - Toni - Doro - Dida - Inga |
