Aren't there too many rates for this tho?

Yes Horses in My Dreams is her best song, but B0PTRL would never let it win.

That one isn't even better than "We Float".

This has been in talks already.

lovesong composed a list a few pages back and it would be split into two parts.

Horses In My Dreams, To Being You My Love and England are the trinity. Let us not.

Can we have a successor to Battle of the Bubblegum B-Listers? A UK version, perhaps? It was super fun to watch as a lurker, and it was probably one of my favorite rates I've seen.

This is a great idea. Who would be included, though? I'm not entirely familiar with the UK pop scene from that time.

Oh wow, I wasn't aware.

Is the good sis gonna host it?

Now that the server is decent, the Björk Discography Rate concludes in 10 minutes. See you there!

minho

Rather than split up the winners rate by something like "first 50 rates" and "next 50 rates" maybe it would be better to split it up like "Winners of Misc. Rates" in one, and "Winners of Discography/Singles Rates" in another?

jpow

I wouldn't mind just splitting it in half. I want to organize it alphabetically by artist name so the same artist doesn't dominate both rates.

I also had a cute idea while I was making the graphics for my rate.

2012 Madness
The xx - Coexist
Beach House - Bloom
Grizzly Bear - Shields
Animal Collective - Centipede Hz
Tennis - Young & Old
Bat For Lashes - The Haunted Man

I'd love to see this rate happen and maybe even reserve it for later in the year!

Also this was the post with the winners etc. if you were interested:

Tbh I want the Winners rate first. I was looking forward to that for a while but it didn't seem to materialize.

WINNERS

Well, because I'm a super nerd and had an hour to kill...

Songs that have placed more than once in the top 5 of a rate, but haven't won:

ONE

I excluded the videography rates.

Surprisingly it didn't take too long, thanks to excel tricks! I have it all in an excel file too. I'd love a rate of all the WINNERS and maybe even a rate of all #2s. I can easily get that info from my excel file if you need.

I suppose I still have to update the winners since a lot of rates have happened since. I'm not updating the second criteria though.

Diarrhoea

The winner of the Björk Discography Rate is ........Jóga !

jpow

What did the asterisks next to some of the winners mean?

It would also have to be updated with some of the recent winners, but it's a wonderful list and I really think we should try to rate them.

Maybe Ace can do it after the current UOG rate?

It won UOG #2 and now the Bjork discography rate, what a stellar song

minho

So to the winners we can add:

VV Brown - Apple
PJ Harvey - Rid of Me
Prince - The Beautiful Ones
Lady Gaga - Bloody Mary
Kylie Minogue - All The Lovers
CeCe Peniston - Finally
Mariah Carey - Vision of Love
TLC - Creep
Celine Dion - It's All Coming Back To Me Now
Tracy Chapman - Fast Car
Maroon 5 - She Will Be Loved
Aaliyah - Are You That Somebody?
Drake - Take Care
Tinashe - 2 On
Fleetwood Mac - Dreams
Katy Perry - Teenage Dream
Bjork - Jóga

and "Creep" and "Jóga" joins the multiple winners list, plus Since U Been Gone/Fantasy (

) won more rates.

I was thinking 2012 Pop Madness could be Born to Die, Kiss, Halcyon & another album

I... don't remember

They might be songs that won multiple rates in case we wanted to do another rate in the future of the multiple winners but it looks like I gave up on that halfway through so I think we can ignore them.

The fact that we haven't done BTD yet

either way I agree, but that one I suggested was albums that wouldn't be acclaimed enough to be in the This Was... but still represent that year in some way. Like an indie version of Pop Madness.

Yeah, I like your idea. The albums that I've heard are great, except Coexist which I will be dragging.
