I like this idea but having a 5 track EP against a 16 track album might be too unbalanced, unless if we add like Annie's A&R EP or something too? Or you could add Neneh Cherry's Blank Project as well.
Something similar could be if we took singles from all these Scandinavian popstars and rated them in comparison to each other. Not necessarily a full one, but rather just limit it to 2014/2015 singles and call it "The Rise of Scandinavia".

I'm not here for another 6 month break  the fact that your bjork rate was unfinished was one of the reasons I registered.

That was all part of my plan, and it clearly worked. Athens should thank me for the free promo, tbh.

By the way, you sir are on the genetic fail Workout Plan - you're not hosting a rate for a very long time.

'Twas somewhat expected. In my defence, a 110+ song rate was a bit more than I was really ready for.
However, someone does need to do these, make it happen.

Stevie DEFINITELY hosted a rate very similar to that called Sweden Rocks!, so I'd lean to the side of no on that. But I like the idea of adding Annie's EP! And throw in Vanbot's newest while we're at it. (Plus her 2013 When My Heart Breaks, which should WIN.)
Two things:
- can we get a Norah/AvrilAshanti/Vanessa rate happening? Call it Debuted in '02 or summat.
- Wiki tells me that with all the promo/featured singles, Ms. Flo Welch has 22. I would not be opposed to a Florence singles rate!

Worst comes to worst, I'll happily volunteer to host J.Lo/P!nk/Nelly/the other one after the PJ rate if there isn't anyone else.

Of course. The more songs, the better. A rate without you is like a year without rain for me, Connie.

Ugh, some of the best songs on TTAL and TSI are bonus tracks. Come through, queens.

I don't like when bonus tracks aren't included anyway but in this case they really are essential.
