Tools    






No point in making a long post everyone knows the deal by now, here's the tv show and movie stars countdowns i did in case you want to brush up. Thanks a bunch again to @Sexy Celebrity for making the picture. Very sorry in advance if i made any mistakes, i don't think i did but it's certainly possible. If you notice a mistake and you bring it up i probably won't see your post until the end of the Countdown as i usually don't stop and read posts much, i'll sort it out at the end. We got 44 lists, 53 made the Countdown and 293 in total were voted for, thanks to all of the members that sent lists:

Cosmic - Ninja Sex Party



Fleetwood Mac only got one point? That was one of the few of mine I thought had a chance at making it.


This one is kind of a cheat. I couldn't decide who to put at number ten. I thought maybe Walter Egan or Billy Burnette or even Bekka Bramlett. But ultimately I decided that Fleetwood Mac would be the better choice because Fleetwood Mac isn't one band. It's many bands from many decades, featuring a variety of artists.

So it's not really Fleetwood Mac I'm voting for. It's Billy Burnette, it's Bekka Bramlett, it's Bob Welch, it's Danny Kirwan and Peter Green, it's many of the better works of Stevie Nicks and Christine McVie, and while Walter Egan was never part of the band, his close association to them sort of lumps him in with the rest in my mind. And, of course, it's also a way to give further representation to a certain guitarist I admire.

A few favorites:
The Green Manalishi
Dust
Sentimental Lady
Oh Daddy
Beautiful Child
That's All For Everyone
In the Back of My Mind
Dreamin' the Dream



I know about The Pixies cause they did the song that was used at the end of Fight Club. Didn't know you liked them Camo

Ms. M - Ubu Krol



NSP were obviously my #10. I do have another comedy musical group on my ballot as well, and I assume they'll be on the 2-pointers list haha.

Edit: I was right! Tenacious D was my #9. Tribute is my favourite song of theirs.



Nice to see a little love for Kyuss in the 1-pointers.
BJS was mine.



My one-pointer was Krzysztof Penderecki, and Idk why the f it is cause I FORGOT PIG DESTROYER. NOOOO



Nevermind, I'm blind. Didn't see my number 9 at first.


I was in junior high when I first became aware of Ed Kowalcyk and company. I don't remember which of their songs I heard first but I remember being obsessed with Lightning Crashes. I just loved the words and Kowlcyk's voice. I begged for their CD and once I got it I listened to Throwing Copper ad nauseum. It's still one of my favorite albums and their songs remain in heavy rotation on my iPod.

Looking at my ballot now, I'm not sure why the hell I had them at 9. They probably should have been 6 or 7.

A few favorites:
Overcome
Lightning Crashes
Lakini's Juice
The Dolphin's Cry
Run to the Water



Wow Coldplay didn't make the list. I thought they were reasonably well liked and I probably would've expected them to appear on the list
