Australia's Biggest Troll

His Lordship

I have set up the biggest troll in Australian radio history.

Every year, the radio station ABC Classic FM has a top list voted for by the listeners.
This year's theme is 20th Century Classical Music.
We're aiming to get the (approximately) 1000 votes needed to send one particular work to #1.
Probably one of the most awful pieces of trash ever written.
Help us do that! When it gets announced as #1 out of nowhere, many lols will be had!

Quoting my Facebook Event:
QuoteWhen ABC Classic FM releases it's Classic 100 20th century countdown, let's make sure that at the very top of that list, is one of the great master works of the century: Stockhausen's Helicopter Quartet.

It is such an imaginative, moving work that has much to say about the human condition, and has brought me to tears on many occasions.

CLICK THE LINK TO LISTEN TO THIS SHORT EXCERPT:

You'll no doubt agree that it is the greatest composition of the century, and that we should share it with ALL of Australia, so let's aim to make it #1 on the countdown!

HERE"S HOW YOU VOTE:

Click on the link below
http://www.abc.net.au/classic/100/

1. Click "Vote Now"
2. The Helicopter Quartet is not in the shortlist, so click "Add your own"
3. Composer will be Karlheinz Stockhausen, work will be "Helicopter String Quartet", click "Next"
4. Check the box in your updates shortlist and click "Next"
5. Enter your name and email address and click "send"
6. Check your email inbox and confirm your vote.
7. Tell all your family members and friends to vote and join our Facebook group to celebrate the countdown when it happens!

Forget the favourites (Shostakovich, Debussy, VW, Rach) - they'll make it in there without your help. Give old Stocky his time in the sun. Stockhausen may have believed he was born on Sirius, the "Dog Star" but his music is fully of Earthly delights.

Good luck on bringing this master work to all of Australia!

Could you please participate in this event?
You don't have to be Australian to vote.
Just have a valid email address.
And if you wanted to be super awesome, you'd also ask family and friends to vote.

I don't understand how helping place an amazing work of art to its rightful position at #1 is trolling, but I'll vote.

We have differing opinions as to whether the Helikopter Streichquartett is truly a masterpiece.
It's not.

My sphincter has produced better sounding music.

Vephy

I think with the right mixture of drugs it could be enjoyable.

I couldn't even make it 30 seconds to listen to whatever that was.  It wasn't even music. 

I understand the interest in unusual music but this is the real interest.

I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
