Interactive 2024 Thus Far Poll

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   For group 1, my favourites (excluding my suggestion, Still House Plants) were Beth Gibbons and Barbara Morgenstern. I give slight precedence to Barbara; Beth's track is beautiful, but it feels like it's near the end of a road of discovery; my interest in her is due to her history, and while I like the album, it doesn't inspire me to branch out. Whereas Barbara is part of a scene I have no history with and can see myself exploring further / branching out into. 
But of course the vote should be on the musical quality, and I also tend to like Barbara's a bit more.

Honourable mention to Decemberists, Burial Ground may be the track from this list that gets stuck in my head easiest.

	Group 2, gave it to Adult Jazz with Eunuch being my second choice. Group 3, the only group where I voted for myself. Liked the other songs but not enough to vote for them. Group 4/5 will give it to Tapir.

	Well, this had already moved off the first page and a third down the second page. I want to thank those who already have voted and commented on selections, and no pressure on those who have not, and I'm hoping someone will come up with a new Interactive Poll soon. I wish there was a good way to entice many who don't normally participate in such thing into participating or making one themselves. By the way, here's a track I liked off Uboa's latest, which I will mention here.
