Voting - Talossan Music Top Special Edition! 2025 [Unusual Time Signatures]

[Glüc]

The deadline has passed but we've only got 2 votes so far, so the vote remains open and will close when have a third vote (on both groups).

This is again the case

[Gjermund Higraff]

Just a suggestion, and it's a long hill to climb, but maybe we should consider revoking the citizenship of anyone who doesn't vote in the TMT? 😁 Or speed up the process of prospectives who are willing to vote. It's been a while (say, 25 years or something) since I was involved with the IM business, and I'm not up on current laws.

Oh, never mind. Just something that encourages voting. I'm obviously out of clues for things that are legal 😂

[Ràed Al-Hasàn]

I'm new here

Prospective citizens are more than welcome to vote in TMT as far as I'm concerned.

2025 Talossan Music Top 20 Special Edition: Songs that include unusual time signatures

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

Give your top three songs 3, 2, and 1 points, respectively. You must give points to exactly three songs.

Voting will last 96 hours (4 days) or until there are at least three voters. The top two songs from each group advance to the Final.

GROUP 1
Genesis - Turn It On Again
Muse - Animals
Radiohead - 15 Step
Soundgarden - Spoonman
Thom Yorke - Dawn Chorus


GROUP 2
Genesis - The Battle of Epping Forest
Mahavishnu Orchestra - Celestial Terrestrial Commuters
Steven Wilson ft. Ninet Tayeb - Routine
System of a Down - Question!
The Allman Brothers Band - Whipping Post




Tiebreakers:
- Number of voters giving 3 points
- Number of voters giving 2 points
- 24-hour tiebreaker round
- Random chance

Tactical voting refers to either giving more points than you normally would to a song because it would make the difference between it going through or getting eliminated, or giving fewer points than you normally would 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 to 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.

I did my best with all the links but there is always a chance some are broken or have 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. Officially, we are not voting on the YouTube link, but on the listed Artist + Title.

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