............
hehe, I won't tell, and anyway you all know!
A hint: it's not from "IT'S A LOVE CULT"!
Oh, ok, of course the winner is, again, THE GOLDEN CORE, as it was ten years ago, and it completes the Timothy's Monster triumph, which wins as best album and as best song.
No surprises for the winner, the big surprise is TAIFUN on 3rd position, more than the Wheel and more than some masterpieces which were actually underestimated here. Un Chien, STG, Giftland, Demon Box, Psychonaut...
Another proof of the scarce loce for the Baard times is that no songs from that trilogy got more than 3 votes (25th position!), while the Kenneth era is more considered (The Alchemyst with 6 votes, in top10). Lobotomizer is more or less lobotomized, with the exception of Hogwash; No songs from AADAP made it to the top 10! Blissard and Demon Box have one each (SWB and Plan # 1) while there are 3 songs from Timothy's Monster and Trust Us, reflecting quite exactly the albums poll. The best song from EPs is Mad Sun, in a great 4th position, though ex-aequo.
OK, that's it... quite late here, I suppose the second Trondheim concert is going to an end, and want to see some comments.
Please, fill this thread with your comments!
Good night!
