This is a game that I trialed on another forum and it did quite well - managed to go on for nearly a year before getting stale.

The idea is that, every 3 days I give you a new artist, band, group, whatever - and you write down your top 10 songs by them. (I appreciate this may be difficult, but it's only game, so try not to get too upset :P)

I then, at the end of the 3 days, add up all of your votes. Every #1 placing earns the track 10 points, every #2 earns 9 points, and so on. I then compile a Top 10 chart of this artist - based on what has the most overall points. (I'll list every single song that's voted, though)

So yeah - just wondered if you'd be interested in this, and what bands you'd like to see covered?

- Radiohead: 1) Paranoid Android / Pyramid Song. 3) The National Anthem
- The Who: 1) My Generation. 2) Baba O'Riley. 3) Behind Blue Eyes.
- U2: 1) With Or Without You. 2) Pride (In The Name of Love). 3) Where The Streets Have No Name
- The Rolling Stones: 1) Gimme Shelter. 2) Paint It, Black. 3) Sympathy for the Devil.
- Blur: 1) Coffee & TV. 2) Beetlebum. 3) Tender.

- The Cure:

I'd start with a huge artist/band.. one that spans a few decades.
