40 is a nice number, but it's not necessarily going to mean I will close the voting. The voting will at least be open until the end of this month.

A special message to German users: a similar thread was opened on the German fan forum. Can someone please encourage these users to enter their votes in this topic as well? Thank you.

Like I said in another thread, I don't really like guitars on pop records. That's why I don't really like the 'Release' album!

Obviously I meant to point out that Being Boring has guitars on it!

I do know that 'Being Boring' has guitars on it (I like the sound of those guitars!). I just hate the sound of normal guitars a la the 'Release' album. It does nothing for me!

Miracles
Heart
Opportunities (Let's Make Lots Of Money)
Domino Dancing
Flamboyant
West End Girls
Being Boring
I get along
Home and Dry
What have I done to deserve this?

Thats my top 10 in Singles, I am more of a album person to be honest but I would also say that in my opinion the worst they ever did is:

SOMEWHERE

StatsFreak is going to analyze the figures and put up a combined chart - or so I'm led to believe. 25 users have voted. 15 to go!
That's indeed correct. And (also for my personal reference) I can announce that I've processed ALL votes in this thread so far: That's 36 lists of 38 songs... - I'm not posting any results yet, but the outcome so far has quite a few suprises!

Sorry, I didn't notice your question before. The best song is indeed rewarded 38 points, the second best song gets 37... and so on. The worst song gets 1 point.

Hi Stew, due to statistic reasons I cannot process incomplete lists. Please consider to turn your Top 10 into a Top 38.
