Obviously everyone isn't going to agree on the final chart, that's what makes it fun, but I do think the number of responses was high enough and the fans taking part representative enough in general to make it pretty accurate. There seemed to be fans who joined the Manics story at each album along the way, so fairly even.
It all encouraged us to listen to all our albums/B-sides again and cranked up the interest in Rewind the Film and the upcoming tour even more than usual, so all good really!!

It was a Herculean effort, but well worth it I think!
My PopMatters article has 148 likes and a few comments (plus some more on Facebook thanks to Manic St Mania), so if that's any indication it should have got the list out to a fair few more people.
