Results for "Favorite Disney, Animated Movie"

Hi Everyone, sorry I didn't get the results up last night, I just didn't get the chance. I thought this was a really fun one, I know some other people disagree with me and I could tell by their negative answers but, I thought it was a great one. Everyone from all generation grows up watching Disney movies, whether its movies like Sleeping Beauty or Cinderella to new generations watching Wall-E or Cars, Disney has a way of reaching young peoples minds and influencing youths imaginations. I know personally, as a youth especially having a younger sister, I was always watching these movies, and it really instills in you a sense of hope and good and evil. The good guys always win and the bad guys always loose, it unfortunate that when you grow up and see the world for what it really is, you find it is quite the opposite. You see dirty politicians, and criminals getting away with crimes and often times it makes you wish you could hop right back into a Disney movie and forget reality. Well that's all my crazy rambling lets get to the results.


Well It was actually pretty close, but their was a definite First place and Second place

First Place: TOY STORY



Although a Movie I like, I was shocked that it won. But then when I saw most of the people who voted for I wasn't. It got the younger vote, well mostly. you will understand when you see who voted for it.

The Results for Favorite Album

I first want to thank everyone who responded, not everyone got back to me but, I am grateful for those who did. I'm not sure the best way to do this, being it my first time but, I thought I would just point out some interesting facts about the results instead of just making a list of who voted for what.

Only one album was voted on twice, the rest were all single votes. The interesting thing about the Album that got voted on twice was that it was voted on by members of the same family. Both my sister and I voted for Weezer's Blue Album, I know it not a big secret that the Hemond family is big Weezer fans, but I thought it was cool that my blasting that Album from my room for months straight actually got my sister to like it :)

Out of all the votes only one person picked something from the R&B genre and that would be Rabecca with her pick for Brian McKnight's Back at One.

Another only one vote getter was the Genre of Rap, this really shocked me with such rap fans voting such and Joe, Jess, Matty P but, the vote was actually from Mark Page with his pick for Dr. Dre's Chronic.

We had some votes for classic music with Corie voting for Simon and Garfunkle's the best of Album and Matt Nolte voting for Pink Floyd's The Wall.

We had a few no big surprises with well Mine and my sisters pick of Weezer's the Blue Album, Ryan's pick of Radiohead's In Rainbows, Aaron Dallman's pick of Stevie Ray Vaughn's Couldn't Stand the Weather and Eric Stelmach's pick of Coheed and Cambria's In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth.

We had one, ONLY one vote for something instrumental with Jason Caron's vote for Kingdom Melodies, although I have been in his car before and have heard gangsta rap blaring, not song number 202 so I have a feeling his vote was a little off but, who am I to judge.

At this point I have almost gave you everyone's vote so I might as well just give you the rest.

We saw some peoples softer sides with Justin's Pick of Postal Service's Give Up.

We got a taste of the violin with Kevin Zeal's pick of Dave Matthews Band Crash.

We got the weird hair side with Jo Jo's pick of The Cure's Wish.

We found out Matty P loves bald guys named Billy with his pick Smashing Pumpkin's Siamese Dream (by the way I hate bald guys named Billy, my jerk boss fits the same description)

We learned that Jess Barbs wishes she was Gwyneth Paltrow with her pick of Coldplay's Rush of Blood to the Head.

We now know for sure that these three are EMO with Jackie's pick of Panic at the Disco's self titled Album, Kyle Peter's Pick of Rise Against Appeal to Reason and Zach Bishop's pick of Taking Back Sunday's Where you want to Be.

Only 2 more

Well we all knew it but no one wanted to say it, Jenn Page is a Punk with her pick of Blink 182's Dude Ranch.

and last but, not least, well actually least because I don't know this band, Jared Dallman's pick of Jurassic 5's Power in Numbers.

Well I want to thank everyone again for voting, around 9am Friday you will hear from me again with another "Question of the Week" I hope you all had as much fun as I did and I hope you all have yourselves a great weekend.

Peace
Joshua M Hemond
