Best Song of 2001: Heat #1

Jul 17, 2009 12:02

Ladies and gents, it's time for 2001: A Poll Odyssey! Mumpop fans are wailing and gnashing their teeth at the news that two of the top three album artists of the year (David Gray and Robbie Williams) are nowhere to be found in these heats, and the third (Dido) just scraped in by the skin of her teeth (courtesy of justfanoe). Can teenpop, hiphop and chart ( Read more... )

Anyone not ticking 'Ante Up' = KIDNAP THAT FOOL

'Ante Up' is great but I prefer 'Break Ya Neck' b/c it has Busta going at breakneck (DYS) speed rather than galumphing around. Thought 'Ante Up' was a dead cert for a tick but the last section really brought some disproportionate awesomeness.

I do like Busta's chicken impression. He even does the wings!

(btw Kat, is Tori Amos' '97 Bonnie & Clyde going to be in a later poll? thought it was gonna be in this...)

Blimey that actually is a Phil Collins cover Brandy is singing here. That one totally passed me by - my own fault, I made a point of ignoring Brandy's musical career because Moesha was so rubbish.

Lots of good unknowns here, and this one's good for a tick!

I ticked seven in my first pass, but the majority of these I've yet to hear, so some of those ticks will change. (And I'll consider it a personal failure if I can't find ten I like more than "Because I Got High.")

Ten exactly on first pass. Plenty I haven't heard though, so persuade away.

I will note in passing that a world in which the Genius Cru gets half the votes of the Dandy Warhols is not a world I wish to raise my children in.

I will second that, and note as an addendum that Mis-Teeq seem to have half the votes of...can this be right...Super Furry Animals? And Gorillaz? My eyes are surely deceiving me.

The Mis-Teeq Mis-Take has been joyously rectified!
