We are going to see about ways to expand the voting pool a bit next year, which will also mix things up a bit
Please don’t take my criticisms as unappreciation. I’m it’s a lot of work to put these together and it’s really cool that you do and I do appreciate it.

I always thought it was "I got id", as in Freud's theory of the id. Is it "I got Identification"?

But we don’t. It’s practically the same final 8 or 16 or whatever every year. Yes, we all think those songs are amazing and we love them. Let’s move on to some other stuff.
True but we have to get better organized and campaign for certain songs. I want some of my favs that have yet to win beat out these legacy tunes, it will mean more!
We can’t even organize the “let’s all eat dinner together separately” idea
That’s because I haven’t decided to take charge of it yet

I’m late to this, but it’s good to see DTE win. Hard to argue with that.

I hope I was referring to Vs, because that is the correct answer.
