Well, it's all there now: the link is towards the bottom of the page. In the meantime, I've now got to go down the shops and buy myself a hat, if only for the plain and simple reason that I have to take it off to all those that took the time to cast their vote. My target this year was to break the voting ton - 92 last year was tantalisingly close. We've positively crashed through the 100 barrier with room to spare, the total number of voters this year stands at an impressive 116 - thanks to one and all. 116 doesn't sound like a big number, but when you have 10 songs to pick each, that's 1160 individual votes for the best songs. That's a bit bigger, isn't it?
The results were sorted out as follows. Your votes were submitted into a database, containing all the songs. I then simply got the database to tot up the totals and compile the chart.

Finally, it's here for you. And at the time of writing, nearly all present (1 live version, granted). If things go missing, mail me and I'll try and ensure it's completed again.
