We're still not sure how we're going to allocate songs to people, but to get a jump on things, if you're interested in writing for the project, sign up here.

If you don't know what the project is, we're trying to take a portion of DT's best songs based on the forum's ratings and write about each of them. Then we're going to post them on RYM.

For example: https://rateyourmusic.com/list/TheScientist/atease_top_100_r_e_m__songs

EDIT: Deadline is Sunday, December 6th

I'm in. I enjoy expressing why I like songs, and there are several songs I feel strongly for that I doubt many others here will care as much about.

*raises everything*

By the way, I merged the other thread into the main one, as we don't really need three threads about this. :lol

I'm in, and I want Eve, if nothing else (although I will gladly take something else as well, or instead, if Eve isn't highly ranked enough to make the cut).

Here's a bump.

I know some people who said they were interested but haven't signed up. Please do so ASAP!

I think you've figured out already I love writing longer posts concerning my love/hate/indifference for songs or albums, right? :D

I'm definitely in.

If you're short on people/song ratio, i can probably contribute.
Only if you guys let a DTF-noob like me join in on something like this, of course... I won't get grumpy if you think that these blurbs shall be written by more experienced members. I understand it too, if you want this to represent this forum in a proper fashion.

setrataeso

Oh didnt realize there was a separate thread for this.

I'm in for sure.

I just request The Great Debate, sir.

While we're suggesting songs... I'd deliberately injure myself if it were my only song, but I reckon I could do You Not Me justice.

I'm certainly up for it, I'll take a mid-40 song that no one wants, but I'm definitely interested.

Yeah, I'm up for one of these too.

I tend to quite like the toys that the other kids don't want (ugh, just TYPING that gave me diabetes and felt massively condescending, but it reminded me of the Raggydolls so I'm keeping it even though it makes me sound like a complete twunt), so I'd rather do one of them than hog something that the vast majority of people would be up for.

BlobVanDam

I'd be happy to take anything out of CM/TDEN/SDOIT/ANTR. I seem to appreciate these ones more than most. For anything else there are probably others who have a much better chance of doing the songs justice.

We'll only be writing blurbs for the top however many (40 maybe?), so no need to worry about YNM :lol

Whoa, whoa.............


You Not Me isn't in the top 40? ??? I'd think it was at least top 10

ariich

Oh yeah, sorry, it's number 7, right behind Prophets of War.

lol I thought this was the Top 10 Great Songs, not the Top 10 Examples of Nick

Really?
I thought we would do all of them. I mean REM had the top 100, and DT doesn't even have that many. Would it really be that hard to do all of them?

Scurvy!Dreams

The REM example only wrote for the top 50.
