Top 40 Singles Of 2006 Poll #5: May

Well predictably Rihanna was beaten off in the end by crazy old Gnarls Barkley and his three more ticks. 'Crazy' got more ticks (27) than any other Top 40 single this year and 87.1% vote share, making it the most popular chart hit of the year among Poptimist members. Who says we're not in touch with Joe Still-Buys-CDs / £50 Mang?

And so now to cast your minds back...way back...to those heady days of May 2006...


[Poll #742857]

Christina Milian

I bought her album yesterday - it's terrific. 'So Amazin', which I assume is the next single, might be even better than 'Say I'!

I don't understand why some people aren't ticking her? She is the greatest living artist of our generation after all.

80% of the people who have ticked it so far also said 'Say I' is the best. So I'm guessing most indiemists haven't heard it yet.

Erm, because it's not actually that good? I mean, it's OK, but despite having seen the video three times over the weekend it hasn't stuck in my head at all.

I think it's one of the most gloriously uplifting and life-affirming things I've heard in ages!

I like it, but it lands on the bombastic side of triumphant, and the guest rap has annoyed me ever since [livejournal.com profile] zenith mentioned it. In a poor crop it sticks out, I'll grant you.

It's not as good as her other songs. MOR.
