Many thanks to everybody who voted for Korean album and song of 2009 for Indieful ROK’s first own top list!
Albums and songs were awarded points – Eurovision style with 12 points to no.1, 10 points to no.2, 8 points to no.3, 7 points to no.4 and so on – in the order they were listed by submitters. Many different albums were picked so for a while I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to make anything worthwhile of it after all, but in the end I did manage to compile a short list of albums that all received at least three votes:
The Best Korean Indie Releases of 2009
1. Jang Kiha & The Faces – 별일 없이 산다 (32)
2. Donawhale – Dive To Blue (28)
3. Mate – Be Mate (26)
4. Han Hee Jung – 끈 (24)
5. Apollo 18 – The Blue Album (24)
Regarding songs, not a single valid vote contained the name of the same song as any other so no list there. I must say I love how varied your music tastes all are! However, Jang Kiha & The Faces deserves a mention here too being the only act with three songs nominated.
I demand a recount.
=)
I object to a recount. That’s a really good top 5. Too bad everyone’s song choices were all over the place. :p
agree with janet, I think it’s a really good top 5. I’m curious what the nominated songs were though. you can make a poll, listing all the songs that were named and people can decide which they liked best out of those? or is it too many songs?
To be honest I had thought the chart would look a little more like how placidian voted :)
As for songs, maybe they’re too many to vote amongst but I could definitely list them. Maybe try to find samples for everybody to hear. Already got a whole bunch of writing of various kinds planned for this weekend though, so that might have to wait till next week ^^
I know it’s more work for you, but I’m always interested in what people like, especially within the indie universe. =)
Maybe break the “songs” into top 5 singles (released as singles, whether digitally or with physical media) and top 5 album tracks?
