Ok, here's the first round of the new forum poll. I've tried to reflect the fact that we're aiming for a Top 10 (as that's what sparked the debate) so except for the final round (which will be the ordering of the 10) there will be at least 2 entries going through, and you'll have as many votes as entries going through. I would urge people to at least try listening to all the tracks, although having listened to basically all of them myself, I'm not going to make an insistence on it being all the way through or anything  Round 1 is going to be 10 tracks, and the Top 4 will go through, so 4 votes each. Tracks are as follows: Pavement - Shady LaneBread - Guitar ManGreen Day - Basket CaseMetallica - For Whom The Bell TollsMuse - Thoughts Of A Dying EndRolf Harris - Stairway To HeavenLinkin Park - Hands Held HighPixies - DebaserLindisfarne - Run For HomeTina Turner - The BestEach round will run for the usual 7 days, and I'll try and start them first thing Tuesday morning each week (reminders are allowed!). No changing once you've voted, it'll just get too complicated so think first!!

Too many that I haven't heard so I'll hold off on my vote until later when I've heard them all.

In order of greatness... Pixies Green Day Muse Rolf.
In the unlikely event that Rocket From The Crypt aren't awarded the prize, I'm happy for the Pixies to get it.

Firstl time I've voted for for something I haven't been familiar with before the poll.

Yes. But out of the ones I've voted for, I mentioned them as their song stands out in this heat.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.
