SO OTM. It's like the perfect music tailor made for me.

I can't go that far with it, but as someone who generally hasn't given a shit about Sean Combs in over a decade, I was shocked by how much I loved the album.

Not really sure I'm feeling the love for the 2NE1 thing. I did like the bit with the machine guns, other than that it's girls aloud with a bloghouse soundtrack. Maybe just not my bag..

it's girls aloud with a bloghouse soundtrack

haha and you fail to see how this fits into the ILM wheelhouse????????

Really glad KRIT placed, it was in my top five. Struggling to think of any rap beyond Yonkers and Gucci Gucci that has a chance of placing from here on though.

there's definitely one i can think of

thinking of the same 1

superb ass?

Would Beastin' have a chance or not?

i think kush groove will place, too though

goin way back but:

If none of the dance people were voting for Jacques Greene, then who was?

i voted for it. i can't explain the absurd pleasure of listening to it in the right place and time. idk, maybe its just because i didn't care for dubstep and didn't pay much attention to most post-dubstep that "another girl" works for me. i tend to just skim the tracks i like off the top of their respective micro-genres and completely ignore the rest.

dont forget azealia banks lol

Novelty tracks are a thing this year i guess

ok what the fuck is this cat song

Would Beastin' have a chance or not?

Doubt it, talking about the e40 track right? Yeah vote splitting on that album for sure, Beastin wasn't even in my top 10 E-40 tracks last year.

Wasn't available for comment earluer but really loving the countdown so far. A little bit for everyone, good job ILM.

I voted for Nyan Cat despite my hate for it. Memes are a thing to treasure. Almost voted for Lotus Flower and Friday on this principle.

xp I guess the album has more of a chance of a high placing. Beastin' got the dedicated thread, though.

I have to admit that i voted for I Love My Momma instead.

hey where have i heard "another girl" before? i know i've heard this song before but the artist seems to be totally unfamiliar to me - was this on some mix?

The sample is from Ciara's remix/cover of Chris Brown's Deuces

no actually i have just heard this song before, i just hadn't remembered. it bangs

it was in a lot of mixes too

So 10 predictions for tomorrow:

Beyonce - Countdown
Minaj - Superbass
Azealia - 212
m83 - midnight city
EMA - California... or maybe Marked
Lana del Rey - Videogames
Grimes - Vanessa
Kreayshwan - Gucci Gucci
Todd Terje - Snooze 4 Love
Tyler - Yonkers

And probably Adele if the voters weren't as burnt out on her songs as I am.

ok Aja Dante is Steve Winwood not Daft Punk; my bad

its Eric Prydz sampling Steve Winwood actually

i don't know if you listen to my mixes kev but I used it in one i made

Also don't get the love for the Wilco song. It's pleasant sounding (perhaps too pleasant) but I would have thought that a song in the adult contempo scene like say Sandro Perri's Changes would place over Wilco... or even Destroyer.

to me "Sade" is made up of really wonderful ingredients that ultimate result in a song too busy and complex for its own good-- pretty much how i felt about the rest of DDM

wish diddy could learn how to just chill

i will never understand Katy B

i will never not love Robyn

Also everyone who has loved the Invisible Conga People song should check out their first single from a few years back. One of my favorite songs from the past decade:

also thank u ILM for giving us dozens of "wtf @ dan bejar's voice/ a saxaphone/ soft rock" posts a full year after Kaputt dropped - cant remember if i voted for this track but the album was my #1

Oops didn't meant to embed the video... wanted to post a link only... sorry about that.

i don't know if you listen to my mixes kev but I used it in one i made

i do! maybe

Youtubes embed automatically, Moka and Frank.

Decided I love the Grove Street track, but is it as good as Hard In Da Paint? Well no, but this is still grebt.

idk, it feels right that Nyan Cat - like "Friday" - should be represented in the poll, just for the way it was such a part of 2011's musical landscape? (Though aren't the votes for "Friday" as much for the ilx thread as they are for track itself???)

lmfao, whose musical landscape would that be?

yeah i've never even heard of this until today

then again i don't read 4chan or whatever

i'd seen nyan cat linked all over the place but never bothered to click on it until today - felt i got 'the point' about ten seconds in and then stopped it

nyancat as a meme totally passed me by

lol @ the trackbar when you play nyancat in spotify

this is my favorite musical meme of 2011:

^

i always hope ppl are referring to this guy when they say "epic sax guy" and then i get let down when i find out it isn't so:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfGARPMa9Rk

haha that's what i assumed it was too

Thx Gr8080 btw re Aja Dante

i gotta think "countdown" is going to be somewhere in the 1-10 range, not the 11-20, yeah? did people vote "1+1" and "schoolin' life" at the expense of countdown, or in addition to it?

Thx Gr8080 btw re Aja Dante

music video for eric prydz - "call on me" is all-time

xp I'm not sure Moka realizes top 10 will be on Friday...? I def think Countdown and Super Bass are locks for top 5

Anyways I'm still holding out hope that Still Sound shows up tomorrow

oh my goodness both sax guy memes are loooooooool
