**Rules** : - **NEW** : You may now submit **6** entries – 5 nominations plus 1 ( **and ONLY 1** ) alternate. The alternate will only be used if one of your entries is a duplicate. The 6th title listed will be considered your alternate. - If you edit your already-posted entry to make a change, I may not see it. Please do not edit your posted list or re-post your entire list – this gets confusing - just add a new post with changes or additions only. **EXAMPLE** : _Remove “Won’t Get Fooled Again” and add “Watching Scotty Grow.”_ - You are allowed to make changes to your entries up until the time that the first polls are posted. - Please do not post title suggestions or comments on alternative titles. This takes a little of the fun out of the process. It is ok, after the polls are posted, to name titles that have been overlooked. - Submissions are limited to 6 per person, the last of which is your alternate. - Exclude articles such as “a”, “an”, “the”, etc. that begin the title. Example: “The Hokey Pokey” belongs in the H poll, not the T poll. - Exclude titles that begin with punctuation, such as an apostrophe, parenthesis, etc. - You must include the artist (not the composer, unless they are the same person) or your submission will not be counted. - Polls will appear in this thread once submissions begin to wind down. - Classical releases are excluded. - Final poll, also in this thread, will narrow the field to 10. - Thanks for playing! ---
