Yesterday I posted this link:
http://www.nme.com/list/the-greatest-ly ... 79#article
There it says "Meanwhile, you can vote for the best lyricists ever here."
Click on 'here' and you get to a voting page.
Would like to know what that 'meanwhile' means (1 day, 1 week, 1 month or until September 21?)!
From a special issue (April 14):
So keep voting!

With 2 computers and a volunteer (e.g. softly pushed husband) even more fun!
I am supporting Leonard, he is executing Matt ....
To make it more exciting we are going to switch, hehehe.
(where is the deadline???)

Re: The Greatest Lyricist Ever voting includes Leonard Cohen
I was checking the Muse forum and the people there surprised me. The vast majority of them admitted that Matt is great but not good enough to be topping this list so I doubt we have much to worry about them

by chance to seperate glances meet,

Re: The Greatest Lyricist Ever voting includes Leonard Cohen
Hi friends,
after some search in the NME files I begin to fear there is no deadline to come....
NME keeps more polls running, eg.:
- The Greatest Rock Stars (nr.1 - Matt Bellamy with Muse)
- The Best Live Bands (nr.1 - Muse with Matt Bellamy)
etc.....
They sentenced us to twenty years of voting
for trying to change the system from within.....
LOL

Love the play on words Surrender
I'm clicking 10 stars on my other favourite Jarvis Cocker too, his lyrics are good and he deserves to be in the top 20 http://www.nme.com/rate/greatestlyricis ... /31/rate/4
