Hi again:

Condorcet Album Poll: 20ten.

This is the next installment in a series of polls ranking the songs on each album officially released by Prince or O+>. The goal of this project is to determine which tracks should be included in a final poll to determine the overall top 25 Prince songs in the opinion of his fans.

For those of you who haven’t been following the polls, these are different than the usual “best song” threads in that they combine the preferences of all the voters into an overall list.

I am going through these in the same order that they were ranked in the earlier poll of the best Prince albums. Now that rumours regarding a new album are starting to spread, let's go on with his, until now, last effort: 20ten.

Please don’t discuss the preliminary results or campaign for your favorite song(s) until the poll is closed. I plan to close the poll on Friday, but I may close it early if the preliminary results are discussed on this site. This is to make sure the poll is as accurate as possible.

Another orger told me about it, electricberet; he conceived this project, actually.

Did anybody else make Future Soul Song 10, Sticky Like Glue 9, Laydown 8, and the rest 1?

Voted these votes always remind me how different my taste is than the majority....

I made it this time!

just voted..this system is awesome and with immediate results

The poll is now closed. For the first time, two songs have ended tied: Sticky Like Glue and Laydown. No winner here!

75 votes! Thanks for taking part!

Laydown's ood but it's not Future Soul Song good.

Not much love for "Everybody Loves Me."

Compassion should have been up there with Future Soul Song and Beginning Endlessly.

yuck... well, these polls do help me understand why nobody else on this site agrees with my tastes and opinions on Prince's music. I consider 'Laydown' to be one of the very worst songs he's ever done - bottom 5, actually; I was shocked to see my least favorite Parade song be voted #1 (Anotherlover..); and I can't believe great albums like Chaos and Disorder and The Rainbow Children ranked so low on the album poll.. I'm not criticizing anyone's opinions or tastes, but I just find it interesting how none of these poll results have shown any similarities to the way I voted.

Yiu have to take into account that the denizens if this era of Prince.org are also crazy too though so.....

Major kudos to Javi for keeping this going, by the way. Only 7 albums left to go!

How did Laydown, Beginning Endlessly and Sticky Like Glue beat Future Soul Song? Wacky.

Because they had the most votes?

The next poll will be The Truth. Stay tuned!

How on earth did Laydown get up there?

And why on earth was 'Act of God' not number 1?!?!
