Okay, because I am a man of the people
, and many seem to want to do this one, let's take a crack it, shall we?
I will count down the top 50 Metallica songs in order, and they will be taken from lists of anyone who wants to send me theirs via PM. Do not post them on the forum here. Send them to me via PM. I will take all of the lists and come up with a top 50 based off all lists cumulatively and count the songs down from 50 to 1.
The rules:
-Songs must be listed from 50 to 1 in order and NUMBERED, with no ties. No having three songs at number 1 or anything like that. 50 songs, listed from 50 to 1 or 1 to 50. DO NOT list your songs with the points total. List them in your order (I will figure out the points on my end). Any list submitted with the songs not numbered will be ignored.
-Anyone wanting to submit a list must do so by the end of day, Saturday, February 18th. I will then begin the countdown the following Monday. This should give anyone and everyone time to listen to the band's songs. That gives everyone almost three weeks to compile and submit a list, and even do some last minute listens if need be.
-The list will be tallied numerically in a simple way. On each list, whatever song is at number 1 gets 50 points, number 2 gets 49 points, number 3 gets 48 points, etc.
-Like before, no more Mr. Nice Guy on my part. PROOFREAD YOUR LISTS BEFORE SENDING THEM. Any list with the same song listed twice will be not be counted.
Feel free to post in this thread as well that you have PM'd me, if for no other reason than to bump this back up for others who may want to participate who may not have seen the thread yet.
This ranking engine link below works great. You can input all of the songs, and then you pick your favorite of every 1 on 1 matchup and then it spits out your list. If you feel I am missing a song (like some obscure demo or live cut), feel free to PM me and I will add it to the list before, although I cannot imagine anything not listed below having a realistic shot at the top 50. No covers included, unless they were on an official studio album (which is none, I think, but you get my point).
