OK, this beat is pretty great.

black & yellow is that rare rap song that is a straight-up rap song & charts but is liked by clubgoing pop-listening women more broadly

these used to be so common :(

lol @ "clubgoing pop-listening women"

those songs are basically my own favourite type of songs

black & yellow is that rare rap song that is a straight-up rap song & charts but is liked by clubgoing pop-listening women more broadly

Ha, maybe explains why I voted for it?

discovered some really good songs for the 1st time today thanks to this poll.

dont know why thats 'lol,' this is the demographic that made rap music in the early 00s cross over in such a big way

pink and purple

Fuck why did I not bother to listen to that Caribou album??

hey jaymc have you checked my pnj top ten at all?? fives was on it & most of the stuff i voted is fairly pop-y, including the rap

this run of songs so far is fantastic

i have never heard of caribou?

today's series has been great. keep it up, ILX.

btw how have i never heard a dj mix "lemonade" into "black & yellow"!!!!!!

<3 pink&purplepink&purplepink&purple

Pink bike / purple skates

LOL

yelllow and black and rectangular

It's just a pity that Nachtmystium - No Funeral wont place in this poll. Was I the only voter?

dont know why thats 'lol,' this is the demographic that made rap music in the early 00s cross over in such a big way

i guess it was the way you gendered it - obv i know that the demographic you're talking about is primarily female, but it just had this air of "boys don't/can't like this"

AG - No Funeral got more than one vote.

who was the other voter? lol

haha pink & purple is the best thing i've ever heard

i specifically said dudes did like it tho

hey jaymc have you checked my pnj top ten at all?? fives was on it & most of the stuff i voted is fairly pop-y, including the rap

I glanced at it, didn't recognize any of the songs (except for "Lemme Smang It," which I mostly knew as a goon meme), and shrugged. But I'll check 'em out!

I'm just going to keep singing "Pink and Purple" in my head until #33.....

Are you allowed to tell me if that's the only MIA track that ranked? Coz like it's great and all but seriously, that is nowhere near the best song on the ablum

Though the Suicide sample was fucking genius imo

starting to worry about my #1

i have never heard of caribou?

Before 2005, he was known as Manitoba, if that helps.

lol i said this elsewhere jaymc but i def voted for 'lemme smang it' on the strength of it as a song not its meme ability

First song of the day that I voted for.

was just checking out "nite air" and my wife asked "what is this crap?" it's pretty bad, seems "tasteful"

i'm not gonna answer that, stevie

I didn't really like "Born Free" until she did it on Letterman with a bunch of M.I.A. clones behind her (and Martin Rev on keyboard).

i thought this song was as tuneless and average as anyone else at first but eventually it clicked and i couldn't stop listening to it

and yeah i'm scared my #1 has no chance ;_;

plz let it be taylor

haven't we had enough tracks from the taylor swift album already?

yes, which means there's one more probably

more like 'graceful' imo. burial's usual stuff seems much more 'tasteful' & less pop to me than 'night air'

the groove is so electric on it

i agree w/ deej

Oh here we go, a track from my ballot at last. The only other one being Crystal Castles.

yeah, i dunno how i feel about "born free". loved it at first, but there's a lot of other tracks on the the album that i prefer at this point. but johnny fever OTM: the david letterman performance with martin rev was fucking all time, one of the most amazing pieces of live music i've ever seen on television. deserves the placement just for that.

was that the one with like 15 MIA's?

The only 3 that have placed so far have been my bottom 3 and, w/ the exception of "Tightrope" and "Window Seat", i'm sort of convinced none of my others will end up here
