Much luck! I really hate Slade! The next round only feels like Slade songs, plus Wizzard and Gary Glitter! I don't even know who to slaughter here first and last! Oh, that's the nice thing about Kill or Save - these little wars, discussions, feelings, exchange about music...

I am not the Generation Z, but I like "Love grows". It's a catchy pop tune.

But in the AOP he was rejected

The late 70s will be very hard for me to kill/reduce... Please add + 1 to Diana Ross' 20 points, Thanks!

I could very well imagine that both popes will be on the list next year, because it would be one of the rare occasions when something like this is even possible. At least I would appreciate that. But we all know that the Committee rarely grants our wishes

Please try again. I used DIs voting instead.

Phew, this game is really tricky

@theoldlady Please add and subtract your points from the current value, e.g. 24+4=28 for George Harrison. Thanks.

@ladyfiona Please +4 and -6. Please correct your vote. Please add Rolf Harris to the list. Thanks

Good spot. Next one please add 20 Rolf Harris - Two little boys

And here I am curious who will replace Angela Lansbury in 100th place. After all, she's held that spot 8 years in a row!

I'm really excited to see which women make the next list. 5 female candidates have already died this year, 3 of them were selected for the fourth time, one for the third time, so important and long-standing picks are gone. What good female candidates could they "replace" (in terms of notoriety and A-level celebrity/personality, but also cool factor and style)? Yes, apparently Tippi Hedren , but who else?

Ralf Wolter is a hit for me here. Unfortunately it is reported only that he has died this month but not the exact date so far. Edit: The article says that he has died on the 14th. https://www.ndr.de/kultur/film/Ralf-Wolter-Sam-Hawkens-machte-ihn-weltberuehmt,ralfwolter100.html

He was picked twice, by me and also by DoorSlammer.

I think Harris would be more a "No. 50 candidate"...

This is a real miss for our list, because our last year's No. 36, actor Ralf Wolter, has died at age 95. He appeared in nearly 220 films and television series in his over 60 years as a character actor and is best known for his portrayal of Sam Hawkins in the Karl May films. https://www.stern.de/gesellschaft/regional/bayern/medien--schauspieler-ralf-wolter-gestorben-32815342.html

Could be one for the main list...

Fritz Pleitgen for me, please.

Angela Lansbury balanced the DL-hits: 5 women and 5 men. This balance at this high level has probably never existed at the DL with its excess of male candidates and thus its hit rate.

Angela Lansbury out, Norman Spencer as sub No. 1 in, Francoise Hardy new sub No 3.

Kundera

All women from the DL 2022 Top 10 are dead now!

Ach, this is sad, I really liked her.
