Songs of the Year 2012 - Results Thread

[para-para-parrotdies]

Does it make sense to post this so far into 2013? No.

 

But I was curious to see what people voted as the best songs of 2012. Would have done it sooner but a) I thought an angel would eventually get to it; and b) I didn't have the time.

 

You can read through the voting thread here:

 

Countdown begins now!

Honorable Mentions:

So no one voted for the following songs but they deserve mention. Why? Because they were HUGE songs in 2012 (and it feels weird making a list without them).

 

If you don't like it, tough; you can create your own "Songs of the Year" countdown thread.

 

Without further ado (listed in alphabetical order):

did we decide on 50 or 25 in the end? im sure if it was 50 i would have had those!!

I was the only one who listed 50 :(

in the previous thread where the lists were placed there was this agreement upon 25 songs. I had 50 as well, but shortened my list to 25 songs. :(

How did you make the countdown? Did you use Space Cadet's rating system?

 

I am sorry, I don't understand the part of the songs that no one voted for but you post before the countdown. They were HUGE where? On the internet/radio? If no one voted for them - including yourself - do they matter then in a countdown of our choice? Or are you planning on comparing our list later on with the metascore list (if something like that also exist for 2012 songs) and see how much we differ?

 

Why do some songs in the list have the youtube or soundcloud thing attached to it and some not? Is it your personal favorites or just songs you liked to highlight for another reason? (because I Gamda Style in it and don't really believe that would be a favorite of yours, hahaha!)

 

btw, yaj for countdown! :dance: :thumbsup:

Yeah I used Space Cadet's rating system. It's an imperfect system - and that's why you see so many ties. If I do this again, I'll probably use a different scoring system.

 

I am sorry, I don't understand the part of the songs that no one voted for but you post before the countdown. They were HUGE where? On the internet/radio? If no one voted for them - including yourself - do they matter then in a countdown of our choice?

 

These songs were HUGE everywhere - in clubs/bars, in DJ sets, in the internet blogosphere, etc. I couldn't go anywhere without hearing these songs! Not to mention they all earned mentions in many publications' End-of-the-Year lists.

 

I personally didn't vote for them because they're not my favorite songs... but they're no denying they all had huge impacts in 2012 (Baauer's Harlem Shake is really taking off in 2013 :lol:). Thus, I mentioned the songs before I started the countdown. If anything, their omission from the actual countdown highlights the number of quality songs in 2012.

 

Why do some songs in the list have the youtube or soundcloud thing attached to it and some not? Is it your personal favorites or just songs you liked to highlight for another reason? (because I Gamda Style in it and don't really believe that would be a favorite of yours, hahaha!)

 

When I first started this, I wanted to link every song to a Youtube or Soundcloud link but a) it took too long; and b) it really slowed down the site. Thus, I'm choosing to highlight some noteworthy songs... songs you should definitely hear (Kind of like how Resident Advisor formats its End-of-the-Year countdown).

Yeah I used Space Cadet's rating system. It's an imperfect system - and that's why you see so many ties. If I do this again, I'll probably use a different scoring system.

I noticed last time as well. Last year we used both Space Cadet's and a more regular one by giving each rank one number more. The one of Space Cadet had less ties, but still has them. Maybe last year I think of another way. A friend of mine once tried to make one without ties. He managed by making a very complicating rating system. Like sometimes people vote for a song because they like the album so much but can't really choose the favorite song. To account for that he let multiple songs that were from the same album or same artist in the list get additional points (though very few compared to a higher rank). But a tiny difference like that already made the list have way less ties. I don't know if that's an idea for a next year.

 

When I first started this, I wanted to link every song to a Youtube or Soundcloud link but a) it took too long; and b) it really slowed down the site. Thus, I'm choosing to highlight some noteworthy songs... songs you should definitely hear (Kind of like how Resident Advisor formats its End-of-the-Year countdown).

Sure thing. btw, thanks for making the list/count down!
