Did anyone not vote 5, can’t recall any?

There was a 1, can’t remember who from though.

Wow. Not looking for names. It’s going to be a high score. Good stuff.

I’m abstaining, as I’ve hardly listened to her music. Will give the videos in this thread a play though :slight_smile:

Right then…

4.57 It’s a huge score, but it’s not quite huge enough! Very interesting thread though.

106 votes, how does that compare to Aretha’s turn out?

  1. Much umbrage.

The electoral college fucks us again!!

Franklin has form for doing this to Simone; both times Nina was nominated for Grammy’s within her lifetime, Aretha won. Guess this is 3-0.

In truth, both such incredibly talented geniuses that splitting hairs between them isn’t necessary and we can just presumably agree they are two of the greatest of all time. It’s a bit like Messi and Ronaldo, except we do actually like both of the singers.

FUCK

I’m so disillusioned

That means that more than half of those that voted gave her 5, which is pretty incredible if you think about it. Aretha is the only other artist where we know that this is the case.

Yeah the lower number of voters for Aretha has really come into play here. I wonder if that number would be higher if we’d done her thread on the music board.

I’m probably not the only one who only started participating when you moved to the Music board (although I would have given Aretha 5 anyway).

The numbers haven’t been below 100 (I think) since we moved over so it is a bit skewed.

Lots of us are scared of the Social board

Ah it’s mainly just pictures of food and polls about whether dogs or cats are better.
