^^^superdope

most of my ballot is gonna be pretty canon i think

nothing wrong with that! imo this is about celebrating and cementing the canon, and maybe adding to or diverting from it when possible

like we don't need any challop Timbaland equivalent of "Whole Lotta Love" outside the top 30 or anything

i knew what my no. 1 would be the minute the poll was announced way back whenever but the other 39 slots are gonna take some ordering

man how the hell did I forget about "Ching Ching"

also yeah if anything other than an aaliyah or missy single tops the list i will be pretty 0_o

Snoopy Track will be high up for me.

goddammit what do I have to do to make people realize "Pony" specifically and Ginuwine in general are abominations

the dude has plenty of deep cuts and also recorded a lot of mediocre stuff from day one but i feel like this is a "maybe it IS 'when doves cry,' maybe it just is" thing

dan i suggest banned you on pure instinct for that.

(j/k)

make your own era-defining R&B hit? (xpost)

man... '100% ginuwine' is arguably timbaland's greatest achievement imo

Pony must win this, right?

i always liked the "pony" single's sleeve, too

woah

would never have thought to make a Deftones/Ginuwine visual art link before now

sonned by a wite pony

If you're horny, Deftone it
Ride it, white pony
My saddle's waiting
Come and jump on it

just going to announce that if "my love" finishes in the top 10 of this poll that i'm going to quit ilx

someone who knows how to ride without even falling off

"my love" is the only jt single i will probably vote for, but it won't be top ten. probably not even top twenty.

(was gonna throw GusGus in that comparison too but I'm sure I'm the only person on this thread fucking with their new album)

wait there isn't consensus that "Pony" is amazing?

it DOES look like a sleeve that should contain a total dan-bait record

Pony must win this, right?

it's gonna be "pony" vs "get ur freak on" vs "are you that somebody?", right

i bet "get ur freak on" wins

more than likely

i kinda can't believe some of these songs are 13, 14, 15 years old now

I don't know why but Ginuwine's voice is total instant kryptonite to me

also I cannot get behind the chorus, it's just so DUMB

signed, someone who rides hard for "The Thong Song"

vs. big pimpin vs. one in a million

philly's most wanted to take it all

what about cry me a river

man i forgot how much i hate that nas song. mostly because the beat deserves WAY better.

well, hate is kinda strong. but still.

i get so turned on by the "pony" chorus :/

i remember the bus i rode to school in 9th grade had the radio tuned into an R&B station that could be barely heard over the din of the kids on the bus, and there were only two sounds that stabbed through it all that i recognized every time they came on: the BLEH BLEH BLEH bassline of "Pony" and the ticketyticketyticketyTACK drums of "One In A Million"

lol there was a period of time where I liked the Lost Prophets cover of "Cry Me a River" more than JT's original

I think something in my psyche deeply distrusts Timbaland

or maybe more accurately, deeply distrusts Timbaland unless he is working with hot hot women

(because my #1 might be "Oops Oh My")

like missy elliott?

i think the video for "the rain" was the last one where, the first time i saw it, i watched like another three hours of mtv just hoping i would see/hear it again

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZloPFZ0ZQ4

do you remember - ginuwine

"The Rain" is the one big canon track I'm gonna be contrarian about here, i've never really gotten into that one

like missy elliott?

I didn't even get on the Missy train until "Beep Me 911", which made me retroactively appreciate "The Rain" and "Sock It To Me".

Can I throw some hipster kisses towards:

Jay-z - it's hot
Bubba sparxxx - twerk a little
Aaliyah - we need a resolution
Missy - smooth chick
Petey pablo - get on dis motorcycle
Ginuwine and Aaliyah - final warning
Kiley dean - keep it moving

omg "We Need A Resolution"

why the hell is that not on Spotify

the dark side of low horn riffs

i think 4 minutes has a cool beat

in retrospect i really erred by not making my worst-of list all furtado

i enjoyed your worst ballot referring to her as 'nelly retardo'

i tried listening to some of Loose on the Spotify playlist the other day and really i pretty much hate everything about that record

man i still like most of that record -- promiscuous got overplayed tho w/ that cell phone commercial

tim's idea of singing also present on chris cornell's "ground zero"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHAgB8FWbOU

"Promiscuous" IS a cell phone commercial

also here is the actual worst tim track, enjoy

Guys, diamond dogs guys

I don't count "Apologize" as a Timbo song. He just added "ehs."

and Timbo-in-a-can beatbox drums

I had forgotten that the original Tedder connection was dude contributing actually-decent backing vocals on Deliverance.

In Germany, the song was downloaded 437,000 times, making it the third best-selling download single of all time behind Lady Gaga's "Poker Face" and Lena Meyer-Landrut's "Satellite".

never should have given these people their own country back after the war imo.

I don't understand why "Satellite" is so beloved. Even by Germans.

The more often I heard it on the radio, the more I didn't mind "Apologize." It's a decent Enrique Iglesias ballad.
