Welcome to the thread for the Talossan Music Top 20 - 2020 edition.

In this event we start with 109 songs, add 41 new nominations, and then vote in multiple rounds until we have a list of the 20 songs most enjoyed by Talossans.
The results will maybe be broadcasted, or published in a newspaper, or likely just published on witt.

TMT 2019 Nomination Rules

Nominations are now open. Everyone (including guests and prospective citizens) is invited to nominate songs to form the 2020 edition of the Talossan Music Top 20.

The same rounds format and tiebreakers as last year will be used. (See above post for link)

41 new songs will be nominated. For now we will start with 3 nominations per person. If we don't have 41 songs in the next 5 days/120 hours everyone will be free to nominate a new songs every X (tbd) hours. In the next post I will post a list of all songs that have already been nominated and therefore cannot be nominated again.

We are voting on the written combination artist (or composer) + title, rather than the specific version that is being linked to, in case people do not like that version.

If you can, please include a link to youtube or some other video or audio file of the song. Otherwise I will find a link myself but I might not always find the best version. In addition I will maybe try to make a spotify list of all the songs. If there are multiple versions of the song on spotify and you prefer a certain version let me know.

All genres of music are welcome. I am not going to ban entire symphonies, so if you want to submit that, it is allowed, but I will advise people to consider that participants are probably not going to listen to two hours of classical music per round for this game, so it might be preferable to nominate a shorter part of a long classical piece, preferably something that has its own title rather than Op 43, 3rd movement or something like that, because that does not really look nice in this format. (That is not a rule though, just some advice.)

One last thing: do not worry about nominating songs because they are not popular enough (or the opposite: too mainstream). You do not get a prize if your song gets the first spot. If you get someone to listen to a song or genre he did not know or like before, that is nice too. We all seem to love our 70s rock classics, and if your all time favorite song happens to fall in that category, go for it! But if it does not, adding some diversity to the list is just as good. Just nominate whatever song you think deserves to be in the list for whatever reason.

tldr:
-nominations open
-3 pp
-include video/audio link

Shamelessly tagging some people who may or may not be interested (others are equally welcome to nominate songs of course):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=god7hAPv8f0

The recent death of Carlos Ruiz Zafon (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlos_Ruiz_Zaf%C3%B3n) reminded me that I didn't get to sneak in a tribute to Andrea Camilleri (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrea_Camilleri) in any TMT20 yet. Both were among my favourite living/contemporary writers.

Franco Piersanti - Main Theme from Inspector Montalbano (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvo_Montalbano)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kX25149WRzI

Lastly, I know that Ennio Morricone just resoundingly won the special TMT20 for movie themes and already has two nominations included by default, but a further tribute to his work is definitely in order, perhaps with something that is not as famous as his Western soundtracks outside Italy:

Ennio Morricone - Main Theme from Cinema Paradiso

Five day deadline is up and it looks like we're not full yet.

Therefore everyone will now get 2 extra songs per 48 hours.

People who haven't nominated any songs yet can still nominate their original 3, but can then only nominate 2 extra after 48 hours.

This goes on until we're full.

There is room left for 16 songs.

Post by: Glüc on August 02, 2020, 12:27:24 PM

Round 1 of the Talossan Music Top 20 - 2020!

Many thanks to everyone who nominated songs. Of course people who did not so are still very welcome to participate

Still haven't figured out what the ideal time for voting is. Unless anyone has any convincing arguments for why it should be longer/shorter, let's do 3 days per 2 groups.

Before we start, a quick note on tactical voting
Tactical voting in this case refers to either giving more points than you would normally have to a song because it would make the difference between going through or getting eliminated OR giving fewer points than you would normally have to a song because it might kick a song you like even more out of the competition. This is hard to prevent, but my very strong request would be: do not do it. Give points to the songs you believe deserve to go through, regardless of how others are voting. Doing otherwise reduces the value of votes that came before you, which is unfair to them. Remember that it's not a competition between voters, but a collective effort to make a nice list of songs we like. Thanks.

So now to the fun part:

ROUND 1: Ten groups total. Two groups simultaneously. 10 songs per group*. Best 5 go through to the next round.

GIVE 3,2,1 points!
Voting will take 72 hours (3 days). Votes cast after that will not be accepted, with the exception that we will always keep going until we have at least three votes per group.
You must give points to no more/less than 3 songs per group.
You may vote on one or both groups.

GROUP 1
Aerosmith - Dream On (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=54BCLYNkFKg%20class="link")
Amenra - A Solitary Reign (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CD7bxyzFbC4%20class="link")

Tiebreakers:
- nr of voters giving 3 points
- nr of voters giving 2 points
- Last year's result (round 2 > other)
- random chance

COMMENTARY ON THE PROGRESS OF THE GAME, THE RULES, WHAT SONGS YOU LIKE, ETC, IS VERY WELCOME.

I will soon include the excel file containing all the groups, Anyone is allowed to post the new groups when the deadline for the previous groups has lapsed. Just copy paste two groups from the column with the pre-made witt links.

I do my best with all the links but there's always a chance some are broken or a wrong version or bad audio quality. If a link is broken or you have a suggestion for a better link, please contact me or post the link in the thread.

People who didn't get around to nominating are also very much encouraged to participate during the voting rounds.

If someone wants to make a spotify list of all round 1 songs, they'd be very welcome to.

* Groups are drawn randomly in such a way that each group contains one 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th place each from last year's second round in addition to 4 or 5 new nominations and 0 or 1 special tmt songs or songs eliminated by random chance in round last year
* Officially we are NOT voting on the youtube/spotify link, but on the listed Artist + Title.

Group 1

Controlling Crowds - 3
A Solitary Reign - 2
Dream On - 1

I will admit that I can imagine sitting through 9 minutes of Amenra followed by 10 minutes of Archive (though obviously different genres) might be a rough start to the tmt for people with a different musical taste than me.

Group 2

Paranoid Android - 3
Power Out - 2
Gangsta's Paradise - 1

Strong group. Lots of songs I wanted to give points to, but couldn't, including Holiday in Cambodia

Well, groups are meant to be balanced as far as last year's results in addition to new nominations that tend to be favoured by those who nominated them. It would be weird if everyone considered a group to be strong or weak.

As far as musical taste goes, I won't deny that on average (with several exceptions of course) we seem to have different preferences, probably to a greater degree than say me and Lüc or Sir Cresti, (though of course there are also some of my more niche picks that strangely enough nobody seems to enjoy, oh well). Still, I enjoy listening to the stuff you come up with that I've never heard of before.

9.
Knights of Cydonia - 3
Smokers Outside the Hospital Doors - 2 (would have gotten 3 points in most groups)
Office Work - 1 (Based on the sample. Just preordered the album download.)
HM: Horizon (among several others that I wanted to give points to).

10.
Spieluhr - 3
My Silver Lining - 2
Sweet Dreams - 1
HM: Move On Up
Also, Requiem might have gotten points if it was just the Lacrimosa bit. Still feel the whole piece is probably too long for this format. Also, Eiric gets bonus points for nominating Eurovision songs.

Both not quite stack alerts but I agree they are the strongest groups yet.

GROUP 9
3 - Marty Robbins - Big Iron
2 - Earth, Wind & Fire - Boogie Wonderland
1 - Muse - Knights of Cydonia
(and at least 2 honorary mentions)

GROUP 10
3 - Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)
2 - Pietro Mascagni - Intermezzo (Cavalleria Rusticana)
1 - Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - Requiem Mass in D minor

I agree the Requiem is too long for TMT20 - not sure I'd restrict it to Lacrimosa though, there's plenty of other stuff that would be in the running. (Also, I kind of wish I had nominated something by Verdi now.)

Editors getting only 2 points and being kicked out after 5 years is somewhat sad. Definitely one my of my all time favourite songs.

In other news though, all six songs coming from the special edition went through, most of them quite comfortably. (And for two categories these weren't even the winners.) I think it's nice that we managed to pick songs that hold up even outside their category.

Round 2 of the Talossan Music Top 20 - 2020!

Before we start, a quick note on tactical voting
Tactical voting in this case refers to either giving more points than you would normally have to a song because it would make the difference between going through or getting eliminated OR giving fewer points than you would normally have to a song because it might kick a song you like even more out of the competition. This is hard to prevent, but my very strong request would be: do not do it. Give points to the songs you believe deserve to go through, regardless of how others are voting. Doing otherwise reduces the value of votes that came before you, which is unfair to them. Remember that it's not a competition between voters, but a collective effort to make a nice list of songs we like. Thanks.

So now to the fun part:

ROUND 2: Ten groups total. Two groups simultaneously. 10 songs per group*. Best 5 go through to the next round.

GIVE 4,3,2,1 points!
Voting will take 72 hours (3 days). Votes cast after that will not be accepted, with the exception that we will always keep going until we have at least three votes per group.
You must give points to no more/less than 4 songs per group.
You may vote on one or both groups.

COMMENTARY ON THE PROGRESS OF THE GAME, THE RULES, WHAT SONGS YOU LIKE, ETC, IS VERY WELCOME.

This time I will definitely include the excel file containing all the groups, Anyone is allowed to post the new groups when the deadline for the previous groups has lapsed. Just copy paste two groups from the column with the pre-made witt links. This will need to happen because I will be away for a week without my laptop

I do my best with all the links but there's always a chance some are broken or a wrong version or bad audio quality. If a link is broken or you have a suggestion for a better link, please contact me or post the link in the thread.

People who didn't get around to nominating are also very much encouraged to participate during the voting rounds.

If someone wants to make a spotify list of all round 1 songs, they'd be very welcome to.

* Groups are drawn randomly in such a way that each group contains one 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th place each from last year's third round in addition to one 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th place each from this year's first round.

* Officially we are NOT voting on the youtube/spotify link, but on the listed Artist + Title.

The results of the first four groups:

[...]

In group 2

Starman (12),
Haifisch (11),
Roam (10),
Innuendo (9), and
The Chain (8 )
have qualified for the next round.

[...]

Thanks for posting these!

Small correction though. In group 2 Starman only got 10 points. Wheels Won't Turn got 9 though, putting it in 5th place, which sadly means the Chain has been eliminated.

Post by: Glüc on September 02, 2020, 12:40:22 PM

Round 3 of the Talossan Music Top 20 - 2020!

Before we start, a quick note on tactical voting
Tactical voting in this case refers to either giving more points than you would normally have to a song because it would make the difference between going through or getting eliminated OR giving fewer points than you would normally have to a song because it might kick a song you like even more out of the competition. This is hard to prevent, but my very strong request would be: do not do it. Give points to the songs you believe deserve to go through, regardless of how others are voting. Doing otherwise reduces the value of votes that came before you, which is unfair to them. Remember that it's not a competition between voters, but a collective effort to make a nice list of songs we like. Thanks.

So now to the fun part:

ROUND 3: Five groups total. Three and then two groups simultaneously. 10 songs per group*. Best 2 go straight to the final, 3rd place goes to round 5 (and also qualify for the top 20), 4th/5th places go to round 4 (and may still qualify for the top 20).

GIVE 4,3,2,1 points!
Voting will take 72 hours (3 days). Votes cast after that will not be accepted, with the exception that we will always keep going until we have at least three votes per group.
You must give points to no more/less than 4 songs per group.
You may vote on one,two or alll groups.

COMMENTARY ON THE PROGRESS OF THE GAME, THE RULES, WHAT SONGS YOU LIKE, ETC, IS VERY WELCOME.

I do my best with all the links but there's always a chance some are broken or a wrong version or bad audio quality. If a link is broken or you have a suggestion for a better link, please contact me or post the link in the thread.

People who didn't get around to nominating are also very much encouraged to participate during the voting rounds.

If someone wants to make a spotify list of all round 3 songs, they'd be very welcome to.

* Groups are drawn randomly in such a way that each group contains two 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th , and 5th places each from this year's second round.

* Officially we are NOT voting on the youtube/spotify link, but on the listed Artist + Title.

Sadly imho this group is a lot weaker than the previous one. I still like most songs, but there are just a lot fewer options that are truly exciting.

(Also, there is only one top 20 song from this century this time.)

I had decided to try and be the last person to vote, but I had already written down my vote somewhere earlier. Then just before the end confusion happened and I forgot to actually post my vote here before closing. Oh well...

As a result only 4 voters this time.

Africa (7),
High Hopes (7),
You Give Love a Bad Name (5), and based on the first tiebreaker
Gimme Shelter (4), and
The Devil Went Down to Georgia (4)

have qualified for the final, which means that Kashmir, which also got 4 points, has been eliminated.

I will set up the final tomorrow probably...

Before I post the final, a reminder: do NOT post your vote in this thread. Send your vote to me, by pm, email, facebook, whatever. The results are supposed to be a secret until I reveal them. Of course, do feel free to post your predictions.

Title: Re: TMT202020 [Final Voting]
Post by: Glüc on September 18, 2020, 08:27:55 AM

Final of the Talossan Music Top 20 - 2020!

The moment we've all been waiting for. We started with 150 songs, including 41 nominations. Now there are only 15 left, but there can only be one winner.

Because this is the final, rather than ranking only 3 or 4, we will rank 10 out of 15 of them eurovision style by giving 12,10,8,7,6,5,4,3,2, and 1 points.
Voting will take a week, so you have plenty of time to listen to all the songs again. I don't know yet what the exact deadline will be, but for now lets say September 26th, 10:00 TST. Like I said votes should not be posted here, but send to me, so the results will be a surprise. You may post your votes only AFTER the results have been announced. To be fair, I will decide on my own vote within 48 hours, of course after listening to each song one last time, so I wont be tempted to base my vote on the results so far.

Give 12, 10, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 points. (Deadline = September 26th 10:00 TST )

FINAL
Bon Jovi - You Give Love a Bad Name (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrZHPOeOxQQ%20class="link")
Dave Brubeck Quartet - Take Five (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHdU5sHigYQ%20class="link")
David Bowie - Starman (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRcPA7Fzebw%20class="link")
Dire Straits - Sultans Of Swing (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIufLA7Bx2Q%20class="link")
Dire Straits - Telegraph Road (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TTAXENxbM0%20class="link")
Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qeMFqkcPYcg%20class="link")
Johnny Cash - Ring of Fire (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=It7107ELQvY%20class="link")
Panic! At The Disco - High Hopes (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPXIgEAGe4U%20class="link")
Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJ9rUzIMcZQ%20class="link")
Queen - Innuendo (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMAgetDMMLk%20class="link")
Queen & David Bowie - Under Pressure (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a01QQZyl-_I%20class="link")
Simon and Garfunkel - The Sound of Silence (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FB9GYkIT3E%20class="link")
The Charlie Daniels Band - The Devil Went Down to Georgia (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6RUg-NkjY4%20class="link")
The Rolling Stones - Gimme Shelter (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbmS3tQJ7Os%20class="link")
Toto - Africa (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTQbiNvZqaY%20class="link")

Tiebreakers:
- points/voter (unweighted average of rounds 2 and 3)
- Last year's result (1 > 2 > ... > 20 > round 3 > round 2 > other)
(First place already gives a bonus so I'm not including that in the tiebreaker)

Just to be sure, do not post your vote in this thread! What you are encouraged to post though is commentary on the progress of the game, the rules, the songs, suggestions for next year etc, and of course, your prediction for what the top 3 will be.

I don't know whether there will be any sort of broadcast or whether I will just post the results here.

Because this is the final round, I'm just gonna do another round of tagging people who may or may not be interested. @DNVercaria @Lüc @Ian Plätschisch @Txosuè Éiric Rôibeardescù @Eiric S.

My vote is sent in.

I approached all the votes as if the songs were in my favorites playlist. Most of the songs are already in my playlist. If I would have played the song when I'm shuffling I voted it higher. If I would skip the song I voted it down lower.

Title: Re: TMT202020 [Final voting]
Post by: Glüc on September 18, 2020, 05:53:36 PM

Cast my own vote. Compared to previous editions Gorillaz, Muse and Talking Heads are dearly missed.

Still a pretty decent list. Imho, the top 5 are amazing, 3 more songs are really good, 6 more are decent songs even if they are not really my thing, and there is only one song I dislike. I do think the list could use some more variety maybe.

Title: Re: TMT202020 [Final voting]
Post by: Glüc on September 18, 2020, 06:08:52 PM

Anyway, 4 votes in so far and so far the points are divided as follows:

25
24
23
20
17
16
15
15
13
13
12
12
10
9
8

So there are definitely some trends developing, but nothing is decided yet...
Only four songs got points from every voter so far, but one of those is in the bottom 3. Three of last year's top 5 are currently in the top 5 again.

Title: Re: TMT202020 [Final voting]
Post by: Glüc on September 21, 2020, 09:13:47 AM

7 votes in. Only 10 points separate the numbers 5 and 12. However at the tail ends of the score distribution the gaps are starting to widen with one song now taking a clear (though far from unassailable) lead.

Opinions clearly differ on the songs currently ranked 4th and 9th, which have high standard deviations. On the other hand, the songs currently ranked 2nd, 12th and 14th have low standard deviations.

Always interested to hear any predictions.

The reveal has started here: https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=512.15

Should have probably posted that link earlier. Sadly, it doesn't seem like there will be a broadcast this year.
