I didn't and wouldn't give my Top 25 chart anymore than two artists per....too boring, plus I knew that other songs by Donna would appear...never thinking in that volume tho...

Bernie....redo....that is your only option.

Hey Bernie. I think that 2 songs per artist limit is a good idea.

Yes, Bernie, that sounds like good idea.

Another option that occurred to me is maybe ballots could be submitted only by members who have more that 25 posts (or more or less; that's just an arbitrary number).

I realize that might seem a little elitist, but at least then we'd know that member was serious about being a part of this site, and not here just to stuff the ballot box.

Oh, Zeca... are you serious???? NOT ONE OF YOUR SONGS made the list???? I have to see your list!!!

The list this time is pretty damn mainstream...almost like the...(dare I say it)... VH-l list that initially inspired our protest list!!!! Is that heresy??? Hey, it's the way people voted....the votes don't lie. Bush IS our President, right??? :lol:

Who votes for "I Will Survive" and "YMCA" and "Ring My Bell" I wonder????? :razz:
Hey Marky,

to be true, I can't tell if any of my songs are on the list, because I don't remeber my TOP 25!!! I remember that my number one song is LIVIN' FOR THE CITY by Stevie Wonder. I'm a reber or what? (LOL)

The only mainstream song (?) I remember that made my list was George McCrae's ROCK YOUR BABY - this song made the TOP 500? I'm too lazy to check this now (LOL).

Anyway, I have nothing against the list, of course, and I really like Donna Summer. Well, LOVE'S UNKIND is on the TOP 500, very good choice. I don't think it's ok to limit our choices on 2 songs per artist - if the artist have more than 2 classic songs, they deserve to be on the list.

Oh, I remember now, NIGHT FEVER by THE BEE GEES was on my list too... Probably these 2 songs are on the final countdown, I don't know...

I voted in FOR THE LOVE OF MONEY by THE MIGHTY O'JAYS too... Yep, I have to find my TOP 25 list to check if there's some winners in it.

Peace,

zeca azevedo, for the love of monKey

Hi Nano and friends,

I cant say exactly how many cause I lost my TOP 25 list (what a jerk I'm!!), but as far as I remember.....I think at least 20 are into the TOP 500.
I'm really glad to see my #1 in there!!

Let's Groove -EWF (Hey Nano!! We did it!!) :grin:


Peace
Personally my favorite EWF is Boggie Wonderland.

but lets groove would also make my top25 but somewhere further down....

2 listings per artist seems maybe too restrictive, but I understand that it may keep the "spoilers" away.
I don't like it limits the freedom
however the whole Donna Summer Occupation can be cut down by My (Much Better) :grin: Suggestion

Limit the list to members that have say posted more then 20messages on the site
or maybe we could make an alternative top100
Disco Forum List.

I think with the members voting interferance from outside parties will not be destroying our creation. (coming from the guy who couldn't even get his list together in time)

I think this thing with outside parties is important because next time it might be someone out there who is out to smudge the name of Disco.
And he will nominate Boney M greatest hits for all 25 and do it from 50 different user names and IP's.

I just one the list as genuine as possible.



Although I feel it's right, I am very open to suggestions. Let me know what you guys think about the two song per artist cap.

I think the 2 per artist cap is fine. I forced myself to choose only one song per artist when I did my list. That hurt me when it came to my choice from Jean Carn: WAS THAT ALL IT WAS vs. MY LOVE DON'T COME EASY. I picked "My Love...", knowing if anything made it it would be the other. Oh well, at least I tried.

I see Jeffey was on to the same thing as me...

Ofcourse it is Elitist but
Hey so is Society
SO is the Internet
And so is life...

I am not sure if it was the fan club that voted for Village People etc...
according to B they had all 25 Donna Summer songs listed.

This could of been one fan sitting in an office borrowing everybody's computer.
The name of our grand nemesis comes to mind FT.

So that he could further more loaf this site for not being underground enough.....

I have no problem with the 2 song per capita limit. However, I'm not sure it will disuade the spoilers... But the harder for them, the better.
It could've been worse, anyway. They could have been from Anita Ward's fan club!!! :lol:

P.S. Hey Sutnop, I checked your www link. Is that you in the picture with the chick in red?

I was pleased to see King Errisson's epic Manhattan Love Song charted so well, and the original Don't Leave Me This Way by Harold Melvin And the Blue Notes seemed to be respected as well as was Follow Me by Amanda Lear. If only Pretty Maid Company's Pretty Maid was more well known...

I have read some of these stats with interest .... looks like Jeff H is the main man with 23 out of 25 in the top 25 ... Very impressive!! Also liked Marky's choice of "Stars I Your Eyes" - a great track that I left out!!

Finally got around to looking at my own Top 25 stats...

I got 17 of them in the Top 500 which did surprise me ...

My Top 5:

1 143 Running Away – Roy Ayers
2 42 Cocomotion – El Coco
3 178 The Beat Goes On – Ripple
4 - Delirium – Francine McGhee
5 195 One Love – Celi Bee

My highest record was Shame (reached #18) which I put in at number 12

My overall stats:

0 - 20 1
21 - 50 1
51 - 100 2
101-200 6
201 - 300 2
301-400 2
401-500 3
Not in 8

Probably bores the pants of ya all! :grin: But I am an accountant!! What do you expect?? :lol: Do you want me to do a regression analysis as well?? :lol:
