Best Song Poll - RESULTS

[Durly]

Will have a good trawl through later but some great bands/artists to nominate again. Burning Spear, Cult, Gang Of Four, Stan Getz etc. Also The Deftones who I've always thought were massively underrated (critically at least). Consistently good band and their last album 'Koi No Yokan' was an absolute belter. It's always annoyed me that they get lumped with the likes of Linkin Park etc. Will be difficult to choose just two from them but here's some food for thought.

[Durly]

Just for clarity, the Cult song that Twiggs has nominated - 'Flowers In The Forest' is a Southern Death Cult song. Apart from Ian Astbury, the other band members of SDC were very different from The Cult, although by the time they changed their name to Death Cult they had the core Astbury/Duffy/Stewart line up established. So, are we allowing SDC and Death Cult songs as well in The Cult poll?

Thanks Durly i'll ask Twiggs to change his nomination

[Durly]

Thanks Durly i'll ask Twiggs to change his nomination

Meant to say there is a Cult song called 'Flower In The Desert' so didn't know whether Twiggs was thinking of that?

[Durly]

These are the two songs.

Moved your post forward Durly as Twiggs maybe along later !

[The Subhuman]

Aja aside we appear to be getting songs from Steely Dans greatest hits which is disappointing

Not very well here mate with heavy s**t going on, but had to get WA nominations in, for one of my favourite bands ever

I would like to say that my nomination for Bodhisattva came because I have always loved Countdown to Ecstasy- not my fault it ended up on a Greatest Hits!
