2009 reckoning: Remember to go back and tick (or untick!) songs in all the previous chart polls this year so we can put together our poptimists chart entries of 2009 list in December (see chart poll results from 2008 and 2007 here and here). Look out for info about the 2009 Reader's Poll coming up soon!

Poll reminder: You have until tomorrow lunchtime to vote in Heat #2 of 2003 and pick your best new track to earn an extra tick in Heat #3.
