Title: TEF Awards of the Decade Voting Thread Post by: Nemo on Tuesday, December 15, 2009, 00:16:57 Okay, so I’ve got my arse in order and finalized the categories for the general TEF Awards. Voting will open after posting, and will remain open until Boxing Day, when I’ll start writing this up. In each of the categories, you vote for one song/program/whatever and one only, anyone who tries to vote for two will have neither count. For categories where I’ve had to make nominations to have this work, there will be no negotiation on the nominations: that time has passed. Votes can be posted in thread or PMed to me, I’d prefer a few more PMs than last time to keep things slightly interesting but understand that debate in the thread is just as good. I’ll tally things up as it goes along, so if you change your votes, please do so in a new post- not by editing your original.
That said, on with the categories. Music Best Album was already covered in considerable depth, so we have: Best Song In order to avoid the entirely forseeable "50 singles with one vote each" result, I've made a Shortlist of 10, based not off my own preferences (sadly) but on the general opinion of many similar lists from a variety of sources. I've tried to include a wide variety of genres, but with a bias towards Indie-Rock as that seemed to come out on top in the Album poll. I must stress that with this category, I am not going to be making changes to the nominees, and no amount of bitching will get your song included. With that done, the nominees are: No One Knows- Queens of the Stone Age Paper Planes- MIA Dry Your Eyes- The Streets Crazy in Love- Beyonce Seven Nation Army- The White Stripes Hey Ya!- Outkast I Bet That You Look Good on the Dancefloor- Arctic Monkeys Hurt- Johnny Cash Stan- Eminem Mr Brightside- The Killers Best Band Simple one, and this is more open as there are no nominees. Quite simply, your favourite band during the voting period (2000-2009) based on their work within that period, and not before. Base it on live performances, albums, attitudes, whatever, just pick one. Best Solo Artist As above, but with the added proviso that if your Solo Artist has been in a band (e.g Gwen Stefani) for some part of the decade, you should base your choice on their solo career only. Worst Artist(s) The Band or Solo Artist which make you turn off the radio/leave the room at the earliest opportunity. They must have released a song, I'm not opening this out to any Music personality or Simon Cowell would walk it. Film and Television Best Film Simple enough. No sub-genres here, so comedies go up against dramas and documentaries, anything with a cinematic first release during the 2000s is eligible. You're voting for individual films, not trilogies, series or whatever here. Best Actor/Tress Based on a single role or body of work in TV or film, your choice, during the decade, the male or female whose acting skills have impressed you the most Best TV Show- Drama Any TV Show whose main role is not comedic is open for voting here. Can anything beat The Wire? Certainly nothing has in other polls of this kind Best TV Show- Comedy Animated or Live Action combined, which show made you laugh the most during the decade? Best Character Open to film or TV, but I'm expecting more votes for TV Characters as they tend to have more time to develop, but the one character who has made a show worth watching for their own personal brilliance. Sport[/u] Sportsperson The man or woman with the biggest effect on Sport in the 21st century so far- a wide open category which I considered nomating, but I'll leave without it. Based on body of work, as opposed to... Sporting Moment The single greatest (non-STFC, that comes later) moment of your Sporting Decade- what had you dancing around the room- Bolt in Beijing? England 5-1 Germany? Nadal vs Federer at Wimbledon 2008? Make your own choice. STFC Best Player Not a great many horses in this race, but it'll be interesting all the same. Who had the biggest impact on the club on the field in this decade? STFC Best Moment Because Worst Moment is too obvious, what was the highlight of the decade on the field for you? Nothing is head and shoulders above the rest, as I'm keeping off the field matters out of this. STFC Worst Player A lot more competition than the best player award, it must be said! Time to compare your Heiselberg's and Ruddock's to your Lloyd Opara's as you declare the person least fit to wear the shirt this decade. ...and I'll leave it there, don't want to overdo things. 14 categories, ONE vote on each please. Voting Form: Best Song: Best Band: Best Solo Artist: Worst Artist(s): Best Film: Best Actor/Tress: Best of Serious TV: Best of Comedic TV: Best Character: Sportsperson: Sporting Moment: STFC Best Player: STFC Best Moment: STFC Worst Player: Get voting folks, but don't rush as you have up until the end of Christmas Day. Thanks in advance for participating. Title: Re: TEF Awards of the Decade Voting Thread Post by: Doore on Tuesday, December 15, 2009, 00:44:34 Good work Nemo. Thanks for setting this up. I'll chuck my thoughts in.
Best Song: Mr Brightside Best Band: The Killers Best Solo Artist: Ryan Adams (but a special shout goes to Pete Yorn) Worst Artist(s): Difficult, but surely Feeder (close second: Placebo). Both just terrible, and worse than any bland Simon Cowell related non-entities. Best Film: Gladiator Best Actor/Tress: Viggo Mortensen Best of Serious TV: Tribe (Bruce Parry) Best of Comedicy TV: Peep Show Best Character: Vanessa Shanessa Jenkins (Gavin and Stacey) Sportsperson: Roger Federer Sporting Moment: The Ashes 2005 - final test STFC Best Player: Sam Parkin STFC Best Moment: Invincibile v Peterboro. STFC Worst Player: Chris McPhee Title: Re: TEF Awards of the Decade Voting Thread Post by: DMR on Tuesday, December 15, 2009, 03:03:06 You deserve to be shot for that songs list.

Hun 1-5 England STFC Best Player: Simon Cox STFC Best Moment: Barry Corrs goal away at Bournmouth STFC Worst Player: Too many to narrow down to one. Title: Re: TEF Awards of the Decade Voting Thread Post by: Spy on Tuesday, December 15, 2009, 09:15:57 Was Stan this decade? Yeah the Marshall Marthers LP was this decade. It was right at the start of the decade. Title: Re: TEF Awards of the Decade Voting Thread Post by: Ardiles on Tuesday, December 15, 2009, 09:47:52 This time 10 and 20 years ago we were indundated with End of the Decade type quizzes/lists/compilations etc. Surprisingly little in 2009...which I put down to the failure of the English language to coin a name for the 2000-09 decade that has entered the mainstream. I don't think it's really registered with a lot of people that the current decade is drawing to a close...much more obvious in 1979, 1989 etc.
I don't listen to as much music or watch as much TV as I used to, so will skip straight to Best Sporting Moment which has to be England winning the Rugby World Cup in 2003. For me, that even topped the Ashes wins in 2005 & 2009. Title: Re: TEF Awards of the Decade Voting Thread Post by: Ginginho on Tuesday, December 15, 2009, 09:50:14 Best Song: Seven Nation Army- The White Stripes
Best Band: Coldplay Best Solo Artist: Newton Faulkner Worst Artist(s): Sean Paul Best Film: The Bourne Identity Best Actor/Tress: Kiefer Sutherland Best of Serious TV: Bones Best of Comedic TV: Extras Best Character: Jack Bauer Sportsperson: Zinedine Zidane Sporting Moment: Germany 1 - England 5 STFC Best Player: Simon Cox STFC Best Moment: Promotion 2006-07 STFC Worst Player: Mark McCammon Title: Re: TEF Awards of the Decade Voting Thread Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, December 15, 2009, 10:08:31 Best Song: I Bet That You Look Good on the Dancefloor
Best Band: Kings of Leon Best Solo Artist: Paul Weller Worst Artist(s): A toss up between The Hoosiers and Scouting For Girls. Best Film: Dog Soldiers Best Actor/Tress: Will Ferrell Best of Serious TV: Lost Best of Comedic TV: Peter Kay's Phoenix Nights Best Character: Jeremy from Peep Show Sportsperson: Valentino Rossi Sporting Moment: 2005 Ashes STFC Best Player: Sam Parkin STFC Best Moment: Nothing on the pitch because it's all been much of a muchness. Best moment has to be Kinky Tom at Wrexham as Paul Ince is subbed on: "Go on son, make a name for yourself!" STFC Worst Player: Chris McPhee Title: Re: TEF Awards of the Decade Voting Thread Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, December 15, 2009, 10:09:38 Best Song: Can't Stand Me Now - The Libertines You didn't read the rules, did you? Title: Re: TEF Awards of the Decade Voting Thread Post by: Ginginho on Tuesday, December 15, 2009, 10:13:38 You didn't read the rules, did you? Nope. If I HAD to pick one from that list, then I would have to say Seven Nation Army - The White Stripes Title: Re: TEF Awards of the Decade Voting Thread Post by: Gelbfüßler on Tuesday, December 15, 2009, 10:39:35 Best Song: No One Knows (how Paper Planes is in that list)
Best Band: Rammstein Best Solo Artist: Eminem Worst Artist(s): So Solid Crew Best Film: Lives of Others Best Actor/Tress: Scarlett Johansson for her acting, honest guv. Best of Serious TV: No idea Best of Comedic TV: The Office Best Character: Bryn from Gavin and Stacey Sportsperson: Michael Schumacher Sporting Moment: Usain Bolt Beijing STFC Best Player: Ian Woan STFC Best Moment: Invincible vs Posh STFC Worst Player: Jamie Slabber Title: Re: TEF Awards of the Decade Voting Thread Post by: Nemo on Tuesday, December 15, 2009, 10:43:50 You deserve to be shot for that songs list. I actually like very few of those songs, it's just a compilation of various high charters in polls of this kind, as you'd have known if you'd read the post. Some of these Worst Players are amusing, I'd forgotten we ever had Mark McCammon, and who the hell is Steve Evans? A note that if you don't want to vote in all categories, you don't have to, your votes will still be counted on the overall tally. Title: Re: TEF Awards of the Decade Voting Thread Post by: Ardiles on Tuesday, December 15, 2009, 10:46:17 Another contender for Best Sporting Moment has to be this, surely.

I'd rate them out of 10:
No one knows 8/10, paper planes 8.6/10, dry your eyes 6/10, crazy in love 5/10, seven nation army 8.4/10, hey ya 8/10, bet that.... 8.8/10, hurt 8/10, stan 8/10 (loses 1 point for introducing dido who turned out to be shit), mr brightside 8.8/10. I'll go for bet that you look good on the dance floor alhough it wouldn't be in my top 10. Best Band: Muse Best Solo Artist: High Contrast Worst Artist: Take that with Robbie Williams a close second only due to giving people a much needed break from his endless shite for a couple of years. Best film: Comedy - Borat. Best non comedy - City of God. Horror - Final Destination 2. Amélie was very good too. Best Actor: Stephanie Mcintosh. Best Drama: Neighbours Best Tv Show - Comedy: Peep show by far Best Character: Super Hans. Sportsperson: Peter Crouch. Sporting Moment: Crouch's goal v hungary and robot dance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b90gpqFp5Bw STFC Best Player: Sam Parkin. STFC Best moment: Rory Fallon's overhead kick v Bristol City. STFC Worst Player: Neil Ruddock. There should be a worst film category too. That would be a tough one. Watchmen, The day after tomorrow, the latest terminator film and G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra were all pretty horrendous.

Title: Re: TEF Awards of the Decade Voting Thread Post by: Nemo on Tuesday, December 15, 2009, 12:41:34 I've decided I'm wasting my breath (well, finger strokes) and I'll just take the first answer of anyone who can't bring themselves to pick one.

Ian Robertson's radio commentary on that is the stuff of legend
"It's coming back for Johnny Wilkinson, he drops for World Cup glory! It's up! It's over" YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES! Johnny Wilkinson is Englands hero yet again!" The huge cry of yes from Rob Andrew (I think) summarizing is ace. I'll do my votes later.

Just do a few categories or something, i'm easy like that.
Title: Re: TEF Awards of the Decade Voting Thread Post by: Boeta on Thursday, December 24, 2009, 15:32:36 Best Song: Whatever People...
Best Band: Artic Monks Best Solo Artist: Eminem Worst Artist(s): Brokencyde Best Film: Borat Best Actor/Tress: Morgan Freeman Best of Serious TV: Lost Best of Comedic TV: The Office Best Character: Dr. Cox from Scrubs Sportsperson: Usain Bolt Sporting Moment: Nadal v Federer 08 STFC Best Player: Jonathan Douglas STFC Best Moment: Oh Danny Danny v PBoro STFC Worst Player: Bobby Howe Title: Re: TEF Awards of the Decade Voting Thread Post by: Spy on Thursday, December 24, 2009, 15:44:31 Best Song: Eminem - Stan - has the edge over Johnny Cash because it isn't a cover, infact should a cover even be allowed? Nemo you did realise the Cash version was a cover didn't you?
Best Band: Yeah Yeah Yeahs Best Solo Artist: Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails) - if there was seperate male and female I'd have said Lily Allen for female Worst Artist(s): Craig David - such an annoying singing style Best Film: The Hole - possibly not the best film of the decade but it's my favourite so I'll say that. there have been LOADS of great ones Best Actor/Tress: Joaquin Phoenix - I'm not that up with whos good at acting but he was outstanding in Gladiator. the bloke in Dead Mans Shoes was also great as was the gril in Fish Tank Best of Comedic TV: Peep Show - the Office was cleverer and more influential but Peep Show is just so fucking funny Best Character: David Brent - just narrowly beating Mark Corrigan Sportsperson: Martin Johnson - captained The Lions, England and Leicester to victory. basically won everything going. Sporting Moment: England winning the rugby world cup STFC Best Player: Simon Cox STFC Best Moment: beating Oxford 2-0 in their last season at the Manor Ground Title: Re: TEF Awards of the Decade Voting Thread Post by: Nemo on Thursday, December 24, 2009, 16:00:46 Yes, I know Hurt is a Nine Inch Nails cover, lets not try and act superior, pretty much all of American IV is covers and it's still a phenomonal album. Some covers can be incredibly good, even if the majority are pants.
Title: Re: TEF Awards of the Decade Voting Thread Post by: Spy on Thursday, December 24, 2009, 16:10:35 Yes it is one of the best covers I have ever heard. Being as the original came out in 1995 it might seem perhaps a bit weird to call it song of the decade.
But Cash did totally make it his own and I'll leave it there. I'm not going to go on about it. It is a great song and it's not wrong for a cover version to get some recognition.

Best Band: Primal Scream Best Solo Artist: Ray Davies of the Kinks (has to be seen live) Worst Artist(s): Kings of Leon (bubble gum rock by numbers) Best Film: Pan's Labyrinth Best Actor/Tress: Benicio Del Toro Best of Serious TV: Lost Best of Comedic TV: Royal Family Best Character: Jim Royal Sportsperson: Mark Cavendish Sporting Moment: Germany 1 - England 5 STFC Best Player: Super Sam Parkin STFC Best Moment: Playoffs STFC Worst Player: Has to be Jamie Cureton, out of all them we've had in the past decade and there we’re some real no hopers fit for the glue factory. The shite was largely out of their depth but Cureton and Thorpe should have set this league alight that season. Thorpe gets off the hook as he was blatantly fucked from injury and slipped down the leagues afterwards but Cureton went onto have a stormer at Norwich. His attitude was woeful at a time we needed him as an experienced pro to pull the rest of the donkeys through that dark patch.. If his head dropped any further he’d have been self felating.
