Can I say how much I'm enjoying the playlist!
Great playlist, nice to see Sebastien Tellier on there 🙂
Idiots guide needed though...found my track, how do I add it to the playlist?!
Edit: Forget it, worked it out 🙂 Click and drag the track to the playlist in the sidebar.
Cor, who did the Enduser/Bjork track. Loving that. Was it chewkw ?

T'was me. Fairly confident it will not get me a prize tho 😉

ta 🙂
This weeks top ten is coming shortly 🙂
Not many claimed their prizes last week. Once I publish this weeks you will be too late for last weeks prizes.
Not quite so sure what most played song we are supposed to be posting here each week, if it's all time plays then you're going to keep getting Ike's Rap a lot from me as it seems to be in quite a clear lead with Supervielle and next in line would be Chaka Khan. My last.fm charts give a more fluctuating choice over more recent periods, this weeks song is Dennis Wilson's Holy Man as sung by Taylor Hawkins... given the amount of play information in music libraries you could choose other ways to discover listening habits , selecting the song last played closest to a random time set every week by yourselves might add a wierd spin to music choice
It's not meant to be a form of analysis.. It's just some silly fun way to dole out some prizes and get a new playlist each week. 🙂
Here's my top ten for this week...
Death In Vegas - Aisha
The Cat Empire - Two Shoes
Fun Lovin' Criminals - Scooby Snacks
Foo Fighters - All My Life
Skunk Anansie - Brazen (Weep)
Jenny Lewis - The Next Messiah
Cake - The Distance
Ocean Colour Scene - The Riverboat Song
Jimmy Eat World - The Middle
Labi Siffre - I Got The...
The playlist is up now and if you are responsible for any of this weeks top ten then email claire@singletrackworld.com along with your twitter ID so we can verify you entered correctly 🙂
Got some extra prizes this week including some grips..
Unless you guys are angling for it to be whittled down to a best-of-the-best list, can I suggest that you stop adding songs from previous weeks.
The Labi Siffre, Ocean Colour Scene and Ice Cube songs have all appeared twice now and apparently you only win prizes on the first time your tune's picked.
Not that I'm complaining too much, I'll get more use out of my USB drive than I would from a new set of grips. There doesn't appear to be any actual RULES to this competition?!
You are right. It's as vague a competition rules wise as it can be - no apologies there.
What you get each week is a staffer's choice from the big list. If you've had a prize from a previous week we'd prefer to give a prize to someone else. One song - One prize.
It's simply an excuse to dole out some freebies. If it's offending anyone we can stop if you like 🙂
Right, i am officially giving up, as all the staffers evidently have shite/MOR taste in music. Might as well go and buy a friggin' USB stick 😉
You've only had three staffers top 10's so far.. there's 6 more to go and we can only pick from what you guys put in there 🙂
Well, I won't be claiming this week. Cos I didn't win! Well done Mark on avoiding my many entries 😉
Don't give up Jamie, there'll be a staffer with taste along soon! 🙂
It's Sarah's turn for Monday's top 10.
This weeks winners have until that chart goes live to claim prizes.
cheers for clearing that up Mark, so as long as I have a song and I've played it more than a few times and euphoria was the outcome of the experience, you will welcome it. 'Yat Kha - Love will tear us apart' coming up very soon
What happens if you added to the playlist but don't have a Twitter account... and then your song was picked... ?
Woo, just came back from holiday to find that i was in the top ten for last week! have sent an email off to claire but is it too late for claiming a prize?
'foo fighters- one by one' was mine if it helps?
Well if Magnum PI makes it, thats mine
Sarah's a bit slow deciding then?
Sarah's Top 10 🙂
James Brown - Get Up Offa That Thing
The La's - There She Goes
Blind Melon - No Rain
Smoking Popes - Need You Around
Bad Religion - 21st Century
Nine Inch Nails - Closer
Nirvana - Heart Shaped Box
Portishead - Glory Box
The Breeders - Cannonball
The Stranglers - Peaches
If you are responsible for any of those then email claire@singletrackworld.com with your song and twitter username 🙂
2 for me there (JB & Nirvana from the "Dead" series. Maybe 3, can't remember if the Breeders was me), I won't claim though 🙂
Oh so close. I had Portishead - The Rip.
Pretty sure these were mine
The La's - There She Goes
Blind Melon - No Rain
but never did the Twitter thing
I see Tom's top 10 has gone up. I've got just the one in there... What's the prize this week?
Chipps next week folks...
Think long hair, sweat bands and 15 minute guitar solos..
oh lordy!
🙂
Glory Box.. Don't I get a sticker or something for "Ike's Rap" without it there would be no Glory Box or Hell is just around the Corner 🙂
Has Chipps released his top 10, or is this comp going to die a slow death?

Mike Doughty - Sunken-Eyed Girl
The Robert Cray Band - Poor Johnny
The Wombats - Moving To New York
Ben Folds - Still Fighting It
Blackfield - Christenings

If you are responsible for any of those then email claire@singletrackworld.com with your claim (include your twitter username too)
And there are surprisingly few 15 minute guitar solos in there... Nor guys with long hair...
Well, I was surprised too.
I'm pleased to say that none of those were mine. Narrow taste? 2 from Robert Cray? C'mon Chipps open your mind, there's more to music than guitars 🙂
ooh yeah!
I only came on here to comment on what a fantastic tune "Life's What You Make It" is...
My pleasure Eck
