While we vote on which tracks we're going to poll one final time, I thought I'd do a lookback thread over the history of the People's Pop Poll, which is also a way of spotlighting the songs already in RAGNAPOP....

Here it is - THE RAGNAPOP DRAFT BALLOT To fill the 64 remaining final poll slots forms.gle/3rAPXCNWHcXchJ… It's a form with 8 groups of tracks, you pick a certain number of tracks from each group. You can go back and edit answers, so you don't have to do it all at once!

Here it is - THE RAGNAPOP DRAFT BALLOT To fill the 64 remaining final poll slots forms.gle/3rAPXCNWHcXchJ… It's a form with 8 groups of tracks, you pick a certain number of tracks from each group. You can go back and edit answers, so you don't have to do it all at once!
@tomewing @peoples_pop Is Shep in Ragnapop already yet? Even the strength of New Order aside, the 80s’ greatest pop remixer deserves a slot in his own right
@tomewing @peoples_pop I genuinely have buyer's remorse about my rationale, and will do so until [REDACTED] and several others get picked or voted in : )
@peoples_pop It's funny how Bruce is the prototype for so much music I don't like but I absolutely love all his 70s albums. Guess it was the pinnacle of hopeful blue collar music before Reagan and Thatcher crushed all that. (Still prefer the live version of BTR though).
@tomewing Maybe the time has come for me to… youtu.be/izRsFWDnsDg?si…
@tomewing @peoples_pop There’s a case for US to be made: it is seen as a relatively fresh-faced, modern classic, while WGO is considered an overpraised part of a stultifying canon. However, besides being a showcase for Marvin’s vocal, it’s also gloriously produced. Voted Marvin.
@tomewing @peoples_pop Personal taste is a strange and wonderful thing. I'd say the exact opposite - The Church track is an all-time classic, Fascinated horribly dated 80s tosh.
@tomewing @peoples_pop Pretty sure Gordon was seeing into the future and referencing The Ring.
@tomewing Phew! So pleased it made it. Astonishing piece of music.
@tomewing Oooh I am glad I saw this.....I had missed this one and thought I had more time and I *may* have been a deciding vote!
@tomewing @peoples_pop It's nice and nostalgic for a certain demo and I've proudly voted for it in previous rounds, but if Fascinated gets crowded out now WE RIOT.
@tomewing @peoples_pop With a lot of Bjork I can see your stance but I find it hard to imagine that someone as pop savvy as you doesn’t get the appeal of Hyperballad.
@peoples_pop @tomewing I thought my vote for LCD was not just the better song but a strategic vote to knock the Boss out. I was way off! Otherwise I like the Foxbase Alpha album but am too big a Neil fan to find this cover superior in any way. Carry on.
@bobbker @peoples_pop @tomewing lcd soundsystem over springsteen!?
@alshipley @peoples_pop @tomewing Well not overall but this song versus that song yes.
@Use0fWeap0ns @peoples_pop @tomewing As someone who doesn’t especially like rock music that’s one of the reasons I like it! It’s a classic teenage pop rock anthem, just like its fellow northern Irish predecessor ‘teenage kicks’
@tomewing @peoples_pop in the 90s British pop-punk mostly existed in indie pop; Helen Love, Boyracer, Pink Kross, etc. Ash was the only commercial act to embrace it post-Elastica. They're like the British Weezer, but I like them a lot better. Not that they belong this high up, I voted Chaka Khan.
@SirMacintalk @peoples_pop @tomewing There was also Feeder for a while there, but Ash had a lot more staying power.
