Albums and Songs of the 2000s Poll: Results! After more than a month of submissions, the time has arrived to present the results of the Albums and Songs of the 2000s Poll! It has become a common complaint that the quality of music has declined sharply, and that there is little (if any) merit in the music of the past decade. However, the interest in this poll and the sheer volume of responses seems to indicate that there still was a lot of great music to celebrate in the 2000s.
I will first present the results of the song poll over the course of a few days. The results of the album poll will follow. The song ballots consisted of 20 posters participating, with 1,561 unique songs receiving recognition! A special thank you to all who participated in the song list. It was a privilege to compile this, and I look forward to delving into a lot of music I didn't know! Participants include the following: Alej AlexdeParis Anxiety damosuzuki encirp84 HamsterHuey Huggiebear Imago lilgish Moonbeam NoVideo Pricelessho purplehippieonthe1 purplesweat ReddishBrownOne RKJCNE Sextonseven spacedolphin thekidsgirl violetblues [Edited 1/5/10 4:40am] Feel free to join in the Prince Album Poll 2018!
