Best Song of 2005: Heat #6

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

The Arctic Monkeys trump the Futureheads to win the heat #4 run-off; Missy, Ashlee, Miranda and Sebastien are through as well. There's a three-way tie for last place (of course there is).

Now for Heat #6, which seems to be a reasonably fair representation of the year 2005. I've been waiting to use this icon for A LONG TIME.

• You get SIX TICKS over the three bits of the poll, unless you told us all your new favourite (and why) from the last heat. Put your new favourite in the box below and get an extra tick for the next heat - do it for five or more heats and get an extra nomination for 2006 (unless I think of something else to do in 2006).



• The top five in each heat will go through to the next stage. Make sure you rep for your faves in the comments!



• If you want to fill in the 'best song I only heard today' box later, change your vote (or tick too many by mistake), you can edit your votes by clicking on 'Poll #12345' then 'Fill Out Poll'.



• You have until Tuesday lunchtime to vote.

[Poll #1534151]


Extra ticks this heat go to justfanoe and meserach.

In what is surely a HYUGE SHOCKA, I just totally fell for this piece of beautiful, atmospheric dance:



May have to give up one of my safer ticks for the cause, there. GORGEOUS.

(Google provides the tidbit that the (stunning) string loop is sampled from the score of Road to Perdition. Have sudden compulsion to rewatch it just to sample-spot...)

Seriously dudes HOW IS NO ONE ELSE TICKING THIS? It's STUNNING, desperately, heartbreakingly sad, and I can't listen to it more than a couple of times in a row without it leaving me a total wreck. :(
