Against Me! (please let this win so I don't have to keep nominating every song off this LP) and The B-52s.

I didn't even realize Cannonball was nominated! Immense song. Definitely voting that and one other of some sort.

The Breeders currently above ABBA? Is this some kind of sick joke?

I nominated the Go-Go's, but The Breeders and The B-52's are just too good .

It's a great record, although I have cleared the dance floor of a very happening party by convincing the dj to play Cannonball.
ABBA all day long for me.

A vote for anything other than DQ is literally insane. It is one of those perfect moments in music where all the stars align and utter magic happens. That drum groove, that bass, that piano, those wonderful vocals. Simply the greatest pop record of all time in my eyes.Toppers Boppers wrote: ↑08 Jul 2020, 5:58amIt's a great record, although I have cleared the dance floor of a very happening party by convincing the dj to play Cannonball.

Yes, the hi-hat is brilliant. The way it opens and closes on certain accents. What a wonderfully constructed record.Toppers Boppers wrote: ↑08 Jul 2020, 9:15amYep, DQ all the way, would vote for the hi-hat alone.Heston wrote: ↑08 Jul 2020, 7:16amA vote for anything other than DQ is literally insane.
