[Introspective] Final results of poll on odds of PSB winning a Grammy

[Wayne Studer]

The final results are in for my poll this past week, in which I asked my 
site visitors what they think the odds are that the Pet Shop Boys will ever 
win a Grammy Award. And the response that received the most votes was:

* "The odds are against it -- but it's possible," picked by 42.5% of the 
voters.

To see the complete results, please visit my "Commentary" site at 
http://www.geowayne.com/psbhtml.htm and click the "Past Survey Results" 
button in the left navigation bar.

My new poll for the week ahead may prove a little more challenging than 
most -- especially for those of you who, like me, love nearly everything the 
Boys have done. But since even I have to admit that I like some PSB albums 
and songs more than others, this should work. I'm wondering which albums 
have, in your opinion, the greatest "dissonance" with their extracted 
singles in terms of overall quality. In other words, first you get to pick 
the album that seems the "weakest" when compared to the general quality of 
its singles (that is, the singles are "stronger" than their album). And then 
you can pick the album whose singles seem the weakest compared to the 
overall quality of the album itself (the album is stronger than its 
singles)? So please put on your aesthetic thinking caps, and when you're 
ready, make your choices right there on my home page.

Meanwhile, thanks to everyone who voted in last week's survey! And I wish 
you all a fabulous week!
