JOCK JAMS POLL, volume four

Maybe I should go with "Push It" (How'd it take so long for that one to show up? Ditto on "Jump Around".), but "Gettin' Jiggy Wit It" was THE song. You'd have to have been 12 at the time to understand.

since i was 12 at the time, i'm voting for "gettin' jiggy wit it" as well, with nods to "space jam", "raise the roof", "everybody" and "jump around."

also, NA NA NA NA NA NA NA

NA NA NA NA NA NA

u are all so young!!!!

mo money

EDIT: i was actually 10. =/.

i was kind of astounded that, after scrolling down this tracklist, i liked about 7 more songs on here better than "mo money."

"jump around" and "tubthumping" are both worse

wtf else do you like more?

definitely "space jam", "gettin jiggy wit it'", "raise the roof" and "jump around" maybe "everybody", "tubthumping" and "push it".

i guess i should have said that i was surprised that after seeing "mo money" how difficult a decision this was. at the right time "mo money" might be like my 4th or 5th favorite song here.

"Tubthumping" but only very slightly edging out "Mo Money, Mo Problems," two songs that made 1997 the greatest year for singles since 1981.

I've never heard these:

7. "Raise The Roof" - Luke
10. "No One Pushes Us Around" - J.K. Simmons
12. "Hear The Organ Get Wicked" - Ray Castoldi - I'm assuming this is some sports personality
13. "Mueve La Cadera (Move Your Body)" - Reel 2 Real - Is this anything like "I like to move it, move it?"
18. "Beautiful Day" - Hypertrophy
20. "Get Ready To Bounce" - Brooklyn Bounce

Any good?

11. "Going Out Of My Head" - Fatboy Slim

^^^ this is a beast

Indeed.

For nostalgic reasons, I want to vote "Gettin' Jiggy Wit It."

(When I was 7, I wanted to buy Big Willie Style, but my mom wouldn't let me (because it was explicit), so I had to settle with Backstreet Boys' self-titled album...)

But my brain is telling me "Mo Money, Mo Problems," which might have been the first music video I really loved. HMMMM....I'll need a few days to decide.

If the Austin Powers option gets any votes, there will be hell to pay.

I am preturbed there are people on this thread who weren't born before the first Jock Jams volume was released.

I strongly doubt that. Not even Young Tape Steezy.

tubthumping :/

Bumping for the mythical (never spotted in the wild) weekday ILM crowd.

"Going Out Of My Head" definitely dates this record (must be '98).

Both of the megamixes on this album are wicked. I'll vote for Push It although the Space Jam theme holds a special place in my heart.

Kevin, I am sure you've heard Brooklyn Bounce. "No One Pushes Us Around" isn't an actual song. And "Mueve La Cadera" is a great Latin number, worth a listen.

I was 12 when "Gettin' Jiggy With It" came out too!

Well, why didn't you vote for it then? You are a disgrace to people who were 12 when "Gettin' Jiggy With It" came out!

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Actually, I lied, I was almost 12. Now that I think about it, lots of these songs were released 1997-98, weren't they? That was the problem the series later on...it turned into a collection of recent hits that happened to be played in stadiums once in a while, if that.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

No love for "Space Jam" :(

kinda sad that the under-21 crowd's movement to get "gettin' jiggy wit it" to win this failed.

I am 21, thank you, but your point still applies. And no votes for "Space Jam" = give ILM the old Alt-f4.

(Maybe "Space Jam" is the Universal Number Two of the 21-and-under set?)

DO WE NEED A SPACE JAM SOUNDTRACK POLL?

1. Seal: "Fly Like An Eagle"
2. Coolio: "The Winner"
3. Quad City DJ's: "Space Jam"
4. R. Kelly: "I Believe I Can Fly"
5. Busta Rhymes: "Hit 'Em High (The Monstars' Anthem)"
6. D' Angelo: "I Found My Smile Again"
7. Monica: "For You I Will"
8. Salt n Peppa: "Upside Down ('Round-N-'Round)"
9. Robin S: "Givin' U All That I've Got"
10. Barry White and Chris Rock: "Basketball Jones"
11. All 4 One: "Turn To You"
12. R. Kelly ft. Changing Faces and Jay-Z: "All Of My Days"
13. Spin Doctors: "That's The Way (I Like It)"
14. Bugs Bunny: "Buggin'"

answer: NO

If the Austin Powers option gets any votes, there will be hell to pay.

All right, who did it?

(When I was 7, I wanted to buy Big Willie Style, but my mom wouldn't let me (because it was explicit),

Great revive (no sarcasm)
