I didn’t include the album from which the track came from. I’ll try to post the whole spreadsheet up on doteasy.com and link it sometime in the future.
Third: The Poll & How it Works
It’s simple enough, post your 6 favorite songs by the artist. Personal observations, opinions, liner notes, comments and the like are always welcome but are in no means required. If you specify Live version, it will be noted, but tallied together with the studio version of the same title. My only request of you is to please try to be as accurate as possible when naming your favorite tracks.
Lastly: The Supplemental Poll Artist of the Week
I know what you’re thinking, ‘Shut the hell up and get on with the poll already damnit!’ So, without further ado: gex gex’s Chemical Brothers poll.
I actually wondered if it had to do with Mario Kart.
