I voted for Holly and the Italians but wondering now whether I should have gone with "What I Like About You" -- overexposure has dimmed my ability to hear its merits but not the merits itself. No, I think I'm happy with "Tell That Girl To Shut Up."

Hard to argue with this result.

True. I voted for the winner, but maybe should have gone with The Rubinoos "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend" so it wouldn't have received a zero

Nice to see Rubinoos shout-out.

as in the other thread, some of my favorites got shut down cold:
Know, The – I Like Girls20/20 – Yellow PillsCryers, The – Shake It Up (Ain't It Time?)
glad that the diodes' "tired of waking up tired" and the real kids' "all kindsa girls" each got at least one vote. otoh, my mind is kind of blown by the fact that chris bell's "i am the cosmos" tied with them. damn! i thought that was ILX canon. i'd have voted for it back in '92 when i first heard it, but i'm not so fond of it now as i was then.

I Am the Cosmos almost feels like a different genre than the rest of the CD. obviously a classic but it's going for something different.

disappointed that pezband got no votes. also surprised at the low voter turnout for "i am the cosmos."
