Well, I run a school forum for, unsuprisingly, people at my school, and we wanted to compile a top 100 list.

Now, we've had a couple of voting rounds for forum members, and now we would like some of the public to vote.

To get to where we are now; firstly, we voted from a list of 240 odd songs, and cut this down to 100 songs. Then we put these into 10 groups (with two songs that scored highly in the previous round, and two that scored badly), and each song was voted from 1-10 in a particular group. Being voted 1st would get a song 20 points, 2nd 16 points, 3rd 14 poinys etc.

We are now left with another ten groups, based on the points that were scored in the last round.

The question is; would any of you like to rank the songs in order of your liking in the new groups. (1 being the best, 10 being the worst)? (The short answer may well be no. :D)

N. B. Firstly, this list is mainly comprised of older music, from the 1970s, mostly. This, of course, reflecting the opinion of most of original voters had. (But not all.)

Secondly, I realise that some of these songs always end up in the top 100. This, I feel, however, is for one reason only; they're very good.

And lastly, I am not going to one of those people who come onto the forum on the behalf of another one, and then leave when the task is done. I think this forum looks good, and that's why I bothered to join:
