pretty cool, surprised Kendrick hasn't gotten more votes in your counts yet but I'm happy that 7/10 have a good chance of getting in for me

thewitness how are Royal Blood doing as a whole? like Figure It Out, Little Monster and Come on Over are they getting votes too? and have you seen any votes for Violent Soho despite them not being short listed?
 
Numbers for Luca Brasi - Borders & Statelines, Modern Baseball - Your Graduation, George Maple - Talk Talk, The Orwells - The Righteous Ones ?

Thanks thewitness, you're a star!

Only one vote for Violent Soho.
For Royal Blood, they all seem to be getting votes:
Little Monster #70, Ten Tonne Skeleton #82, Figure It Out #88, Come On Over #177


Thanks! Also, Jack White - Lazaretto? I completely forgot about that song. Wonder if voters have.
Some people seem to have remembered.
Would You Fight For My Love #75, Lazaretto #77
 
lol you have wayyy too much time on your hands...what's the appeal? fun? betting?
A lot of it is automated so it doesn't actually take that long. Appeal a bit of both, I have taken the betting agencies to the cleaners in past years, but I would never encourage anyone to make bets based on my data, but also I enjoy knowing what people are voting for outside of the 200.

Good to see Luka Brasi in with a chance... How are The Bennies tracks doing thewitness?
 
Thanks for your work thewitness!

Might as well ask about a few songs I voted for, I assume Maybe will be top 40 or so, otherwise looking grim for these!

Carmada - Maybe
Röyksopp feat. Robyn – Monument
Vince Staples - Blue Suede
Coucheron – Deep End

Cheers!
 
The Bennies - Knights Forever #111
The bennies - Heavy Disco #138
Aphex Twin - Minipops 67 #259
Thom Yorke - Guess Again #258
Carmada - Maybe #18
Röyksopp feat. Robyn – Monument #86
Vince Staples - Blue Suede #291
Coucheron – Deep End (only 1 vote)
 
Good to see you're onto this again thewitness can't wait to see your list. Are you going to share percentages of votes as well again this year?

A few other queries, who has the most songs in the top 100 this year? I would have thought Chet Faker would be a certainty with this. While I'm at it what positions are his songs in?

And about the bias in the past, how has your system traditionally gone with the hilltop hoods? I thought cosby sweater would be way up there (massive national tour, final song at live shows, crossover radio play, triple j favourites) but it doesn't seem so.

Cheers Lavers.

I'll stick the %'s on with the last list I post before voting closes.
I think Chet Faker has 5 in at the moment. Talk Is Cheap #2, 1998 #4, Gold #13, (Lover) You Don't #35, Cigarettes & Loneliness #77, To Me #226.
Sticky Fingers & Ball Park Music are both a chance at getting 4.
Hilltop Hoods, always turn up much lower then they actually finish with these count things, by quite a lot. So even though I have them at #5, I wouldn't rule them out of taking #1. Of the 11 times in the past i have data for Hilltop Hoods, 9 times they have finished much better then the count suggested. In the 20 years poll, Nosebleed section came up 11th in my count but finished 4th. IMO i would think Cosby Sweater would currently finish at #3 on Australia Day.
 
This is the positions for now in my count. I'll be back in the new year.
