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 Lane
Bread - Guitar Man
Green Day - Basket Case
Metallica - For Whom The Bell Tolls
Muse - Thoughts Of A Dying End
Rolf Harris - Stairway To Heaven
Linkin Park - Hands Held High
Pixies - Debaser
Lindisfarne - Run For Home
Tina Turner - The Best

Each 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.

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.
