Re: Forum Poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 1987

sorry stephan!

(thanks honorio!)

Re: Forum Poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 1987

Thanks, Stephan, and welcome back from not being away

Prince wins, no real surprises in the top 10's.

Then 2 further corrections for the albums, that don't really make a difference to the end result, but anyway:
- The Lonesome Jubilee from John (Cougar) Mellencamp has 3entries in the list, all together good for 37+7+1=45 points.
- Sting has two entries, good for 10+18=28 points

Re: Forum Poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 1987

No big surprises, a lot of 'last good album from big 80's bands that is not as critically acclaimed as their earlier stuff' for me to consider whether or not to get.

I already have Warehouse, based on Tim I probably wouldn't like Pleased To Meet Me, so that only leaves Strangeways.

Also Tunnel of Love, which I am ambivalent about because I love Nebraska but am not as big on his arena sounding stuff.

Great work, Stephan!

Re: Forum Poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 1987

So, Alex Chilton made the top 10?

Re: Forum Poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 1987

instead of a lame "No, but Paul Westerberg did" joke:

yeah, John, in case you haven't noticed yourself by now, according to Stephan's updated spreadsheet "he" is. hoo. ray.

I'm in love with that song!
