I have to say, that playlist is pretty sweet! I don't think there's a single song on there that I don't love! (Apart from peter Gabriel, I've never heard that song). Winning by 83%? Shows the Floyd are still a massive force to be reckoned with, even on mainstream radio (which plays such crap nowadays if you ask me).

The Chilis should be easy to beat, don't think the Floyd playlist has much to worry about! Nevertheless I will remember to vote on Monday anyway! :lol:

We all suggested a bunch of Floyd songs and songs by others and then they were all voted for. Dunno if the threads are still there. Solsbury Hill was my suggestion, by the way ;)

That is a good song, thanks :)

How did you get such a good margin in the first round? And can we replicate or improve on that in this round?

I think sending the NPF Newsletter out to 26,000+ people did the trick! \:D/

Make sure you are all subscribed to that!

I noticed you are a member of Stadium Arcadium forum. Are you checking out the competition here?!?! :D

I search all new members email address on Google to see if it returns any trouble!! You actually posted your email address on that Stadium Arcadium forum. Email harvesting bots will take a copy of your email address from that post and use it to spam you!

Friendly competition is good. But Pink Floyd will win so there!! :lol:

Ah I see! Haven't had any spam trouble yet though, but I think I'll maybe edit that anyway :lol:

To quote the Dude himself. "That's just like... your opinion..." haha

Do I have to? That is perhaps the worst playlist I have seen in my life, not to mention the band themselves.
