Agreed, but whatever. I'm still tired from the fights about Girls in the 2009 poll. xp

s'all P4K faves from now on.
I had failed to notice this going on, so this is an awesome surprise. Didn't know that Big Boi track but it is awesome, so that's me one up already.

Huh? As in "too low" or "too high" or what?
― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 30 June 2010 17:59 (thirteen years ago) link
too low imo
― AESTHOLE (jjjusten), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 17:59 (thirteen years ago) link
don't worry, "Bad Romance" will be super high up there

yeah, surprised that "paparazzi" didn't place higher - not that i gave it many points myself
― interstellar overdraft (contenderizer), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:08 (thirteen years ago) link
plus the results are coming a little too fast and furious. i kinda like the suspense & debate involved when they appear every half hour or so. suppose that takes more work, though...
― interstellar overdraft (contenderizer), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:10 (thirteen years ago) link
Wow, I hadn't seen the Paparazzi video before. Pretty amazing stuff! I can believe it's the same guy who directed "Telephone". Major drop in quality.

I've been doing them roughly 10 mins apart, but I could stretch it out.
― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:10 (thirteen years ago) link
if stretching it out is too much work for you don't worry, i can understand it might get a bit wearing!
― لوووووووووووووووووووول (lex pretend), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:11 (thirteen years ago) link
Never seen the "Be Mine" video. This poll unfortunately/fortunately coincided with me being separated from music and a proper, working computer.
― Gee, Officer (Gukbe), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:12 (thirteen years ago) link
xpost I don't mind the results coming fast. I need to get some work done.
― the subject of many men’s thoughts (daavid), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:12 (thirteen years ago) link
so glad robyn is so low, at one stage in ilm's history that'd have been a threat to win. intolerable woman.
the best "paparazzi" visual is her performance at the AMAs imo - you know the one with blood and pianos and ending with her getting hanged - i still find myself eyerolling a bit at the actual video. though you're right, not the gigantic mess that the "telephone" video was.
still none of my actual votes but i LOVE most of these songs so, happy.

^ not a Hold Steady fan by any means, but if I had to recommend a song to someone, it would be this one.
― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:22 (thirteen years ago) link
I finally sent my tracks ballot last night, just barely making it before deadline, which allowed "Marble House" to make the cut!
― LeRooLeRoo, Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:23 (thirteen years ago) link
Good, now I know I don't need to listen to anything by The Hold Steady.
― the subject of many men’s thoughts (daavid), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:27 (thirteen years ago) link
Is that the legit Stuck Between Stations video?

I was ready to trash anything by someone named Jackie Chain but it's actually pretty good.

Paparazzi is in a tough position when there are two songs by the same artist on the nominations list that are 100x better.
― skip, Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:42 (thirteen years ago) link

down with bad romance being even with it, cant imagine what the second song yer thinking of is tho
― AESTHOLE (jjjusten), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:45 (thirteen years ago) link
I'm sure I'm an exception here, but IMO we've already got all The Knife/Fever Ray this poll needs.
― the subject of many men’s thoughts (daavid), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:46 (thirteen years ago) link
I think both Just Dance and Poker Face are way better than Paparazzi, but what do I know.
― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:46 (thirteen years ago) link
summoning HI DERE to thread to look at the placement of #84 and become angry at himself for not voting
xpost hahaha yeah see i hate both of those songs so
― AESTHOLE (jjjusten), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:47 (thirteen years ago) link
if the 2009 poll is any indication there will be more
xp
― Dan S, Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:47 (thirteen years ago) link
"telephone" was on the poll, right? i probably prefer that as a song to even "bad romance"
― لوووووووووووووووووووول (lex pretend), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:47 (thirteen years ago) link
I expected "Seven" to be higher, it is the best song on the Fever Ray album. The wordless chants and the synth chorus are breathtaking!
― Tuomas, Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:48 (thirteen years ago) link
I was thinking Bad Romance and Just Dance but Poker Face is better than Paparazzi as well.
― skip, Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:48 (thirteen years ago) link
oh fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
why didn't I vote ;_;
― based on logical thinking (HI DERE), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:50 (thirteen years ago) link
Btw, I think "Seven" and "Overpowered" are the only tunes so far I've heard before, so I guess I'm even more out of the loop than Dog Latin.
― Tuomas, Wednesday, 30 June 2010 18:51 (thirteen years ago) link
im not used to ilm polls where Tuomas doesn't compain about the lack of dance music :)

if we don't see at least 2 of the following tracks place higher, I will cry

For some inexplicable reason "If I Had a Heart" wasn't nominated, otherwise I would've voted for it too.
