Re: Forum Poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 2001

Wow Stephen is ranking pretty high, so far in both songs and albums lists. So far is also pretty high on mine, but i need to listen to other records first. He might get in this poll what he didn't got in 2001. 2001 looks like a more diverse year in terms of album picks than 2000.

Re: Forum Poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 2001

Not one vote yet for The Cold Vein by Cannibal Ox?!?! I implore everyone to check this album out. I first discovered it after looking at nj's all-time list (a treasure trove of great albums) and since then it's grown to be one of my favorite albums. It really is a spectacular piece of work: a hip-hop album that's singular both in its production and word play. I'm not sure what the rest of my list will look like, but I know The Cold Vein will top it.

I like this album a lot too, even though it's long to the point of being a tad overwhelming. "Iron Galaxy" is a lock for my top ten songs.

On the same lines (and coincidentally another nj favorite, though I didn't discover it through his list), I hope Super Furry Animals' Rings Around the World gets more consideration. What a great mix between noise and melody.

Re: Forum Poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 2001

I've found a lot of great albums off nj's list, but Cold Vein didn't grab me as much as some. It's good, but not top 10 of 2001 for me.

Ah yes - I was thinking that when I saw your list. It will most likely be my #1...

Fantastic song, but I'm just wondering if you're sure it's 2001. I think the album it's on is from 2002 and the single was released 2003.

Edit: I just wanted to reiterate that it's really fucking awesome, if it's 2001 I'd like to change my list.

Edit #2: RYM does say 2001, so I guess it is 2001. Could you put it at #8 on my list Petri?

Re: Forum Poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 2001

1 : FC/Kahuna : Hayling
Fantastic song, but I'm just wondering if you're sure it's 2001. I think the album it's on is from 2002 and the single was released 2003.

Edit: I just wanted to reiterate that it's really fucking awesome, if it's 2001 I'd like to change my list.

Edit #2: RYM does say 2001, so I guess it is 2001. Could you put it at #8 on my list Petri?


I think it's debatable in which year Hayling came out. Most of the sources rate it as a 2002 release, and RYM is contradicting itself here. On their site the song is filed under 2001, but when you go to RYM's own discography of Skint Records, the label which issued Hayling, you will only find it under 2002. In any case, great track.

BTW: good lists, Charlie D. and Slick!

Re: Forum Poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 2001

Well,there might be a lot of debate about what the best song of 2001 was,but for sure this was the best music video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8md51JnCNFQ

Albums (and reflection) of 2001

2001, the year I started elementary. It was also the first year of the 21st Century and the new millenium (not 2000). And of course, not even a week into school, a great tragedy struck this nation not even 100 miles from my home.
We also beckoned in a new president here in the states, Geroge W. Bush. 2001 was also the year we lost music legends George Harrison and Joey Ramone.
As for the music, of the year, I've always seen 2001 as that year in between the two great years. Nonetheless, here's my albums list:
1- The Strokes, The Strokes
2- Love and Theft, Bob Dylan
3- White Blood Cells, The White Stripes
4- Discovery, Daft Punk
5- Bleed American, Jimmy Eat World

Re: Forum Poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 2001

What's wrong with Fallin? The only reason to be embarrassed about that is if you just don't want to be seen together with a successful radio single. If I made a singles list I'd list that one.

Re: Forum Poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 2001

Like Brad (see the 2000 thread) I always post my lists in the end. Most of all I'm listening to evry month is based on the decade polls.
2001 is one of the years I know the less.

However, this is my temporary album list for 2001

only 10 albums but it will grow and change significantly in the next 3 weeks.

The same could be said about my song list, here's a spotify link

Re: Forum Poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 2001

Hi Nicolas, a 2001 recommendation for you might be Otis Taylor's White African. IMO one of the best Blues albums of the '00s.
It won't be easy to lay your hands on it though, because it's out of print for quite a while now. Maybe you'll find White African on spotify. If not, here's a link for downloading it: Otis Taylor-White African.

Re: Forum Poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 2001

Re: Forum Poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 2001

Re: Forum Poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 2001

I need a judgement call... apparently the version of N.E.R.D.'s "In Search Of..." was released in the U.S. in 2002 and was re-recorded with more rock-oriented backing tracks.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Search_of..._%28N.E.R.D_album%29

Do I wait until 2002 to include it on my list? I actually like the fuller sound and I'm not sure I'd be a fan of the original stripped down version. In my college rock days, this was probably the first R&B album that convinced me that other genres could be a little off-kilter and interesting, while including a dance beat that made it more fun for parties.

Re: Forum Poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 2001

Albums

1. White Stripes - White Blood Cells (because it's also the best album of the decade)
2. Bob Dylan - Love and Theft (because he was back and sounding like Father Time)
3. Strokes - Is This It (because their narcissistic, non-challant coolness was also catchy as hell)
4. In Search of …, - N.E.R.D. (because they obviously saved their best stuff for themselves)
5. Bjork - Vespertine (because she's consistently unique)
6. Coup - Party Music (because they're the funkiest hip-hop this side of OutKast)
7. Weezer - Weezer (because green is a cool color, and "Hash Pipe" is this year's "Song 2")
8. Jay-Z - The Blueprint (because blue is a cool color, and Jay-Z is the smoothest)
9. Basement Jaxx - Rooty (because it's inspired mayhem and I love the cover)
10. Guided by Voices - Isolation Drills (because it was always the hooks and melodies with these guys)
11. Lucinda Williams - Essence (because even slowing it down, she's awesome)
12. Tenacious D, Tenacious D (because they're funny and still manage to rock)
13. Gorillaz - Gorillaz (because this is the best album by cartoon characters ever)
14. New Order - Get Ready (because they hadn't sounded this good in a long time)
15. Ryan Adams - Gold (because it starts out amazingly, but can't quite sustain it)
16. Jimmy Eat World - Bleed American (because it's my favorite generic alt-rock of the era)
17. Missy Elliott - Miss E ... So Addictive (because she's horny)
18. Manu Chao - Proximas Estacion: Esperanza (because we all need a little hope)
19. Shins - Oh, Inverted World (because they'll change your life)
20. Cannibal Ox - The Cold Vein (because I love my children)

Re: Albums (and reflection) of 2001

Listyguy
2001, the year I started elementary. It was also the first year of the 21st Century and the new millenium (not 2000). And of course, not even a week into school, a great tragedy struck this nation not even 100 miles from my home.
We also beckoned in a new president here in the states, Geroge W. Bush. 2001 was also the year we lost music legends George Harrison and Joey Ramone.
As for the music, of the year, I've always seen 2001 as that year in between the two great years. Nonetheless, here's my albums list:
1- The Strokes, The Strokes
2- Love and Theft, Bob Dylan
3- White Blood Cells, The White Stripes
4- Discovery, Daft Punk
5- Bleed American, Jimmy Eat World


Hey listyguy, did you start 1st grade in 2001? I did too! Wow, I didn't think there was anyone else as young as me on this forum

Re: Forum Poll: The Best Albums and Songs of 2001

Thanks to the voters who recommended Aesop Rock's Labor Days. After two listens it's already one of my favorite hip-hop albums of the 00s, and I will join several others in voting for the song "Daylight" in addition to the album.

My favourite Spanish song of 2001: La Buena Vida's "Qué nos va a pasar"

Donosti (Basque name) or San Sebastián (Spanish name) is a lovely city by the sea (see) on the north coast of Spain. Amidst the politically convoluted Basque Country, Donosti managed to maintain a serene, distinguished and noble bearing. The blue seas and the grey skies of Donosti gave also name to a style, the "Donosti Sound", a subtle and fragile pop sound that tried to capture the beauty of the simplicity. A bunch of bands with "coincidence of adjectives: naïve, polite, lazy, delicate" in words of Guillermo Z del Águila for Rockdelux. The pioneers of the style were Aventuras de Kirlian on the late 80s but the Donosti Sound blossomed in the mid 90s with bands like Family, Le Mans, Daily Planet, El Joven Bryan and, of course, La Buena Vida ("The Good Life"). The influences of these bands included pop sounds from the 60s (Love, Beach Boys) to the 80s (Smiths, Orange Juice), with echoes of easy listening (Burt Bacharach), French pop (Serge Gainsbourg) and bossa (Astrud Gilberto). These bands shared also record labels (Siesta and Elefant) and the same cover art designer (the awesome Javier Aramburu, see here).
La Buena Vida was the band of that scene with a longer and most succesful career. Their fifth album Hallelujah! (2001) included my favourite song from them, Qué nos va a pasar (What's Gonna Happen With Us). A bittersweet song about the end of a relationship. About that point "when the conversation decline". About the uncertainity, about not knowing "what’s gonna happen with us". About the desolation (I will hide, now that you leave, I won’t go out anymore; what’s the use if I can’t see you). About the resignation that came with the last refrain (when time passes by, you will find someone else and you will forget me, that’s the usual thing, even if it maddens us, it’s always like that, and we try hard to conceal). About the disenchantment, necessary in singer Irantzu Valencia's own words: "It's the disenchantment necessary to become enchanted with something or someone again, you need to go through this disenchantment before".


QUÉ NOS VA A PASAR
Composer: Mikel Aguirre / José Luis Lanzagorta / Javier Sánchez / Pedro San Martín / Raúl Sebastián / Irantzu Valencia
Performer: LA BUENA VIDA
First release: 2001 ("Qué nos va a pasar" single)
Length: 3’44”

Cada día trato de acertar por dónde saldrás;
eso es tanto como adivinar qué nos va a pasar.
Has estado, hace tiempo, algo raro por momentos.
Me pregunto algo inquieta qué nos va a pasar.

No recuerdo cuándo decayó la conversación
ni el punto en que dices tú que algo cambió.
Sin embargo, mientras tanto, yo me guardo la esperanza
y las cosas que en la plaza nos dijimos hoy.

Ahora que te vas pediré perdón y dirás que no
y estará muy bien, ya sabes por qué.
Yo me esconderé, ahora que te vas,
ya no saldré más; dime para qué, si no te voy a ver.

Sin embargo, mientras tanto, yo me guardo la esperanza
y las cosas que en la plaza nos dijimos hoy.

Ahora que te vas pediré perdón y dirás que no
y estará muy bien, ya sabes por qué.
Yo me esconderé, ahora que te vas
ya no saldré más; dime para qué, si no te voy a ver.

Cuando pase el tiempo conocerás a alguien más
y me olvidarás, y es que es lo normal,
aunque nos dé rabia siempre ocurre igual,
y nos esforzarnos en disimular.


WHAT’S GONNA HAPPEN WITH US

Every day I try to guess how you’ll turn out,
but that’s as much as guessing what’s gonna happen with us.
You’ve been lately quite strange, sometimes,
I wonder slightly restless what’s gonna happen with us.

I don’t remember when the conversation declined,
neither the point in which you say that something changed.
Meanwhile I still keep the hope
and the things we said today at the square

Now that you leave I will say sorry, and you will say no,
and it will be alright, you know why.
I will hide, now that you leave,
I won’t go out anymore; what’s the use if I can’t see you.

Meanwhile I still keep the hope
and the things we said today at the square.

Now that you leave I will say sorry, and you will say no,
and it will be alright, you know why.
I will hide, now that you leave,
I won’t go out anymore; what’s the use if I can’t see you.

When time passes by, you will find someone else
and you will forget me, that’s the usual thing,
even if it maddens us, it’s always like that,
and we try hard to conceal.

Nice lists, antonius, but I think some of your songs aren't from 2001.

If I Ever Feel Better - 2000
What Else Is There - 2005
Danger! High Voltage - 2002
One More Time = 2000

Just mentioning in case you want to substitute them.

Hey listyguy, did you start 1st grade in 2001? I did too! Wow, I didn't think there was anyone else as young as me on this forum

Actually, where I live, kindergarden starts elementary.

here's hoping that crushedy isn't another elusive AMF fad... his/her lists are way too jawsome to draw juvenile ephermality into faux milkpaper


nice wordplay


that would be "Georgedie" (nah, hardly, but what evs)... both of them keep supplying AMF polls with randomly implanted yet suprisingly consistent and terrific mumblefield tantrums... and none of them has ever reacted to any positive reply so far... it's like telling your creepy uncle that his weenah actually smells and tastes as skittily as the clothes he's invented for his very own personal version of the Rainbow Brite: that he might be next AMF.PeeWee.Lurky somehow.. and STILL these guys always appear to react their way by the total fortress of .them:shelves. and proceed their state of over.processed hence heartily denied jadesummnuss..

Bleed American was one of the first albums I ever purchased with my own money. It's definitely the only one of these albums I actually had heard and enjoyed in the year 2001! My placement here isn't just a nostalgia trip either; these songs hold up pretty well.

I'm surprised almost no one else has placed Leaves Turn Inside You. Also Hot Shots II is almost as good as The Three EPs and deserves more acclaim. As for the most overrated of the year? The Blueprint. And Toxicity; I can't stand System of a Down.

This was a great year for music. Though I haven't explored the rest of the 2000s nearly as thoroughly as this year (that's what this poll is for), I expect this will end up as one of my favorites.
