THE 2011 ILM SUPER-MEGA YEAR-END ALBUMS 'N' TRACKS POLL™ is open for nominations!

Is there a unanimous favorite Turquoise Jeep track this year? I'm leaning towards "Did I Mention I Like to Dance," but "Why I Gotta Wait???" is pretty good too.

TRACK:
Class Actress - Keep You

(11/25)

"Why I Gotta Wait?"!!! xp

Not a single, but I don't intend on nominating, or voting for, the album.

Miranda Lambert - Mama's Broken Heart

8/25

I have to admit I don't like that Don Omar track all that much, but felt like nominating something. Same goes for the Boris, though I've probably listened to it more than "Taboo." Anyway, could care less even more than usual if nobody votes for those. Also, I was excited to hear "Intentalo" when I atypically was looking up and down the radio dial yesterday. So it is getting commercial airplay.

miketd, I missed Amira, thanks, though I think maybe curmudgeon said something about her in the past year. Listening to this right now (though this is not the sort of thing I like to hear in the morning, so I may come back to it later). Bachar Khalife (or Bachar Mar-Khalife) put out a pretty interesting solo album last year. Very proggy in parts. A bit too fusion-oriented at times, but there were some stand-out tracks on it.

Still waiting in hope for a bunch of things to be nominated or I'll have to scrap half my draft trax ballot...

it's kind of annoying that this whole nomination process is going by without any clarification of how many songs/albums will be allowed on our ballots.

25 per ballot

ALBUMS

Adele - 21

(17/25)

25 per ballot

― sean doily, Sunday, December 18, 2011 8:15 AM

To further clarify, 25 albums on the albums ballot and 25 tracks on the tracks ballot.

oh gosh we don't get to choose how to allocate singles and albums on our ballots too? that would be so much fun!

Can someone please add Maria Rita's Elo to the spotify album playlist? I'm not sure how to do it. I think it just had it's U.S. release, so it probably just wasn't available before.

(Or explain how to do it.)

We don't have a Spotify album playlist, do we? Just the tracks one, I think. Which I'm now finished with by the way so someone should update it.

Yeah, there is one.

If you've a week to spare...

aww, totally missed that.

Only the creator of the playlist can update that one.

Have changed it to a collaborative playlist, so if you see something I've missed...

Thanks. Thanks to whoever added it. I don't think it was me, unless I did it without knowing. I rearranged the tracks to be in the right order for the album. Hope that sticks.

(Oh right, it tells you who added the tracks. Nevermind.)

Frivolous - Red Tide

I'm slowly working my way through the Tracks spotify playlist and this is my favourite one (that I didn't nominate myself) so far
