The Ultimate Women's Album - Side 2 Track 2 Vote - (The Real) Round 3

(Just a note that I mistitled the last round of voting. It was actually Round 2. I was being blackmailed, but it's all good now. Interpol has assured me that Vince won't be bothering anyone again. If Inder wants to change the title of the previous round to Round 2, that'll make sure that Big Brother is still loved.)

So, we have retro pop from the 80s versus edgy pop from the 90s. The Decade of Heston vs. the Decade of Hoy. I have confidence that after this vote, we will never argue about decades of music again.

It was a quasi-alliterative thing, plus there's not another super 80s fans here that I could partner Heston with.

This whole experiment has been weird to me.

I think it speaks to how there aren’t nearly as many agreed upon all-time classic women vocalists in the board’s personal areas of expertise, late 70s/early 80s UK punk and new wave, which leads to wider ranging personal faves that aren’t as coherently united.

Yeah because I'll flat out say it there were better songs. Some that Id never heard by artists Id never heard. Right now it is shaping up to be another disc in the .99 cut out bin like the last one.

Thank you for that. That's exactly how I feel. Considering some of the strong songs nominated, I was surprised to see the wishy-washy ones won.

It usually comes down to 101's teenage sexcapade soundtrack.

This is why voting doesn't work.

We should just draw names from a hat or something.

If there's one thing I learned from these polls it's that Heston has got a silent army behind him.
