Farin Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 Well, to be honest, I'm not so sure about those 'no artists who have previously made the top ten' tens. I don't mind too many well-known nominations, but if I have to look up 90% of the nominated songs I really get sick of it. well, but if there's a halfway known Stones/Beatles/CCR song nominated I already know what our #1 will be :sleepy: :sleepy: so how about "no artists that have been a #1"?

The Seeker Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 No artists that have been a #1 is fine. I see what you mean, but I still don't like having to decide between 40 songs I've never heard before. The songs are getting obscurer as it is anyway, and I think that'd make matters worse, so to speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farin Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 but I still don't like having to decide between 40 songs I've never heard before. you don't need to tell me - I already do that almost every time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLizard Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 I just checked my copy of "Everybody Knows This is Nowhere" and "Down By The River" is on it. Which means that "Down By The River" is a Neil Young and Crazy Horse song, not CSNY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steel2Velvet Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 Then who are those guys singing on that video for my nomination? I could've sworn ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farin Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 CSN&Y undoubtly performed it live, but as far as I found they never released it on one of their records (except the 1992 extended edition of "Four Way Street") but ultimatly it's your nomination / choice, I can change it back if you want to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted April 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 Steel, Farin is correct. It was released in 1969 on "Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere". I inadvertantly, while double checking to make sure it wasn't released on "Deja Vu" in 1970, included it as being on that album also. It was not. It should have read.... Down By The River - Neil Young & Crazy Horse (1969) Sorry!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted April 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 I think the top ten list is great! I can hoonestly say I like every single song on the list, whether it actually got my vote or not. Now to check out how the video thread is going. I always thought that was a good idea!

Steel2Velvet Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 No, don't change anything. It's cool. As long as Neil got his due. Frankly, I much prefer the Buddy Miles & Electric Flag version of "Down By The River", but I thought that might be too obscure to nominate.

bazooka Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 It should have read.... Down By The River - Neil Young & Crazy Horse (1969) Sorry!! 9. Steppin' Out - Joe Jackson .. I had Down By The River - Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young here, but since it's basically Neil Young's show in this case, and since Neil Young's version with Crazy Horse has already made the Top Ten, I changed my mind. FYI, the "with Crazy Horse" version won the number six position in Top Ten #37 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted April 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 Well dang it, master bazooka. Ron, since the song has actually made the top ten previously, some corrections will undoubtedly be made. We'll wait for Darryl or Farin to come on, and probably award you an extra nomination for Top Ten #61. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OLD 55 Posted April 28, 2007 Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 And let us give a big THANK YOU to Tim and bazooka With 600 Songs now in our Top ten database, the occasional glitch is sure to occur. We appreciate any assistance very much. Yes, Radhi will be pleased. ONE point It was the puppy eyes that did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted April 28, 2007 Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 so how about "no artists that have been a #1"? Farin, how about doing that for #62, and make #61 WIDE OPEN. I'm sick of tiptoeing around not nominating songs by BIG Artists. I haven't nominated a Beatles' or Stones' song since Adam was a boy. (OK, I had one unexpected (to me) #1 with a CCR song, 'I Heard It Through The Grapevine' - not a single). LET'S GO FOR IT THIS TIME I have a Beatles' song which I'm finally going to nominate + one yet to be determined, but it'll be another big name.
