"It's embarrasing to admit to liking this record, but somebody's got to do it. I feel pretty confident there are others just like me out there."

Thank you Ryan Schreiber, I am not alone in my Pet Sho Boys guilty-pleasure love.

I know they are obvious but I still have a special place in my heart for "Rosa Parks" and "Miss Jackson".

Telephoneface (Adam Bruneau), Tuesday, 7 September 2010 16:39 (thirteen years ago) link

lieutenant jimmy john (kelpolaris), Tuesday, 7 September 2010 23:29 (thirteen years ago) link

lol fine. but by all standards this is pretty underwhelming to me, esp for a first single. like taylor swift "mine"-level underwhelming.

teledyldonix, Wednesday, 8 September 2010 03:40 (thirteen years ago) link

van smack, Thursday, 9 September 2010 23:26 (thirteen years ago) link

237 votes! That's the most I can think of on any ilx poll.

Donovan Dagnabbit (WmC), Thursday, 9 September 2010 23:37 (thirteen years ago) link

While they're essentially the same thing this top 20 makes way more sense to me than the original one.

Moka, Friday, 10 September 2010 00:53 (thirteen years ago) link

I don't think ILM hates pitchfork. Speaking for myself I think they're pretty good at what they do, I just get a tad annoyed when they try to force their alt indie cred by giving high review scores to frankly mediocre and forgettable artists just before realizing how crap they actually are and backlashing their careers to death on their future releases - or you know placing 'gold soundz' as the best song of the 90s.

Moka, Friday, 10 September 2010 01:05 (thirteen years ago) link

Gold Soundz

Roberto Spiralli, Friday, 10 September 2010 01:10 (thirteen years ago) link

Half of the Pitchfork writers regularly contribute to ilm? And I think we can all agree nabisco otm. Even lex and geir.

a hoy hoy, Friday, 10 September 2010 01:14 (thirteen years ago) link

plz say you mean the song coming last and not the song itself is what makes you nauseous?

a hoy hoy, Friday, 10 September 2010 01:15 (thirteen years ago) link

it doesnt make you nauseous it makes you <em>nauseated</em>

max, Friday, 10 September 2010 01:23 (thirteen years ago) link

friends don't understand us, adults don't understand us (zorn_bond.mp3), Friday, 10 September 2010 01:24 (thirteen years ago) link

i'm tempted to start a meta thread where max thinks he's posting on gawker instead of ilx

J0rdan S., Friday, 10 September 2010 01:24 (thirteen years ago) link

the opposite would be funnier

max, Friday, 10 September 2010 01:25 (thirteen years ago) link

to you

LOL @ OutKast losing this poll, totally undeserved.

ilxor has truly been got at and become an ILXor (ilxor), Friday, 10 September 2010 02:49 (thirteen years ago) link

it was a lame outkast choice so deserved imo

max skim (k3vin k.), Friday, 10 September 2010 02:54 (thirteen years ago) link

nice work voting in this thread ILM.

order looks about right for this board.

Bee OK, Friday, 10 September 2010 02:57 (thirteen years ago) link

Dudes that's like no one's favorite OutKast song let alone someone's favorite song of an entire decade

i sit alone in my three-cornered hat staring at candles (Whiney G. Weingarten), Friday, 10 September 2010 03:53 (thirteen years ago) link

otm

max skim (k3vin k.), Friday, 10 September 2010 03:54 (thirteen years ago) link

also it was going up against "juicy" + "nothin but a g thang" + a wu-tang clan song

it has no business finishing in last tho

J0rdan S., Friday, 10 September 2010 03:55 (thirteen years ago) link

yeah i wanna know who voted for that and not "juicy"

max skim (k3vin k.), Friday, 10 September 2010 03:56 (thirteen years ago) link

yeah but that's the problem w/ half the songs they picked. it's like an artist of the 90's poll dressed up as a singles poll. most of these songs are barley in the top 10 for each these bands. xxpost

Moreno, Friday, 10 September 2010 03:57 (thirteen years ago) link

i get hopping mad thinking about it
