Manics Top 50s - 30th May 2015

It was Ladies Day on the top 50s yesterday with three of our New Chart Riot regulars coming up with the goods.  We managed to find ourselves a new number one selection and also pick up a few more of those no-vote tracks along the way.  And while the numbers weren't particularly massive there seemed to be a fair bit of love for the latest two albums in these charts, a late bid by them to force their way into the 50?

We already have a few more charts waiting in the wings on this chart deadline day and I think we're now only one off beating the total of 62 charts last time.  So make sure you get yours in and we can blow that total out of the water!

Manics Top 50s - 29th May 2015

It was a busy day yesterday with 8 charts announced as people battled the impending deadline!  It was a mixture of returning participants from last time and chart newcomers with the more popular songs mostly coming out in the number 1 slot, although we did have one that bucked the trend.

For our first participant there is a link below the title for a more in-depth look at the chart with facts and figures and videos galore.  You also may have seen on Twitter recently a Manics-related puzzle and our third participant is responsible for that very wordsearch, an inspired idea!

Some of the other charts managed to tick off a few more of our no-vote songs meaning our current count is only 47 out of 307 and just one of those is an album track.  Let's see how many more of those can get at least one point in the final two days.  If you haven't voted yet there's still time, get your charts to me by close of play Sunday!

Manics Top 50s - 28th May 2015

The other chart from yesterday is going up as today's chart, but I was just hanging on for the written piece you can see below and as you'll see it was worth waiting for, some cracking anecdotes! (note: click on the picture to open it larger if it's too small to read)  Over to you.....

Manics Top 50s - 27th May 2015

The charts are coming thick and fast as the deadline looms, and the 27th was a four chart day!  Three of those are featured here and The Holy Bible and Generation Terrorists did pretty well for themselves among the three charts while Postcards From a Young Man in particular struggled for votes.

As with last time I'm deliberately not totalling up the votes as we go so that the results are as much of a surprise to me as they are to all of you (although I will find out a week before you lot!).  Initial plans are to announce the final 50 on Saturday 6th and Sunday 7th June on the evenings but I'm conscious this is just after the Cardiff Castle gig so people may not be around, any thoughts?  Over to the charts....

Manics Top 50s - 26th May 2015

Today's chart is from a contributor who was with us last time out for the fantasy setlist but it's a first in terms of the top 50.  And surprisingly for such a high profile song I think I'm right in saying that for both of the times we've done these charts it's a first number one slot for Tolerate.  This Is My Truth also takes the honours in the By Era chart and we can cross off one of our no vote tracks as another one creeps in to get its first selection.

Only 5 days left now to register your vote and I'm still hoping that you're all leaving it until the last minute as we're still some way short of the 62 charts we got last time!  Happy ordering!

Manics Top 50s - 25th May 2015

A returning friend of New Chart Riot today and a not unexpected old school feel to it as the By Era chart leans very heavily towards the first three albums, with a Holy Bible top four.  There was even time to throw in a first vote for one song buried in the 50, make up your own mind as to which one that might be.....

I was expecting a busier bank holiday weekend to be honest as the deadline looms, I guess you're all leaving it until the last minute right?  Right?! :)  Next Sunday night (May 31st) is the deadline remember, so make sure you get yours in in time, I make this chart number 40 so far so we need another 23 in just 6 days to break last time's tally!!!

Manics Top 50s - 22nd May 2015

Today's chart comes from an absolutely invaluable resource for Manics fans, MSPPedia, which you can find by clicking here.  I was recently able to view the setlist of my first ever Manics gig in 1994 on the site (thanks to Monkey Marl for pointing out it was now listed!) which I was really pleased about, what a setlist it was!  It's a treasure trove of Manics-related information, which will keep the obsessives among us (all of us?) happy for hours.

But back to the charts and Lifeblood manages to get itself a top share of songs this time alongside This is My Truth in terms of overall entries, while our big hitters continue to take the top spots.  Whether it's enough to change the order of last time still remains to be seen.

The bank holiday weekend starts here and with just over a week to go I imagine a few of you will be putting the finishing touches to your own charts, so I look forward to seeing them and adding your votes to the total!

Manics Top 50s - 21st May 2015

Today's chart leans heavily on the first five albums, taking a decent chunk from each, but with an almost equal representation from the remaining seven albums when looked at together.  The big hitters again take the big places in terms of points too but there are still a lot of points up for grabs as we close in on the 31st May deadline.

It's possible we may end up with multiple blogs on some days as the deadline looms, I'm expecting to be busy!  So if you've been thinking about yours but not got round to it yet, what are you waiting for?!

Manics Top 50s - 19th May 2015

Today's chart is another one that's pretty even, no one album pulling away from the rest in the number of picks and representation from every one.  A familiar number one again staking its claim for its own push into the top 2 of the big chart after last time.

As of today there are only 12 more days to get your chart in.  This is chart number 37 and I know there are a lot of you out there that are planning on submitting a chart so hopefully we can beat last time's total of 62.  Feel free to recruit anyone you can to help us get as many contributors as possible, the more people we have the more accurate and representative the final chart will be!

Manics Top 50s - 13th May 2015

It's another two returning contributors from last time today and while in the first chart the number one manages to retain its place, the rest of the chart is quite different.  A healthy dose of songs from the latest two albums and a big reshuffle elsewhere, but let's face it, it would be boring if we kept it the same, right?!  I'm sure most of us would change them around if we were asked again the following day!

The second chart also manages to retain its number one and is probably the biggest chart of the underdog so far, ticking off a number of our no-vote songs in the process.  It's also significant for being weighted more towards the second half of the band's career, yet still, every era manages to see at least one vote.

Manics Top 50s - 11th May 2015

Today's entry sees a familiar number one, staking its claim this time to rise from the number 3 spot in the overall chart and break into the top two.  This Is My Truth puts up a valiant fight against The Holy Bible in the By Era chart with 7 entries as every album is represented and we manage to tick off another no-vote song, although a B-side this time (not telling which though!).  Keep them coming!
