"Keep On Movin" I ticked it! ....er, no, I unticked it

I hated "Keep On Movin" at the time. Like, shit, what's next, are people going to tick smooth jazz? But in my listen-through this time I genuinely preferred its deep atmospherics to PE's rhythm rush. But then I remembered that I preferred the utter catchiness of "Self-Destruction" to either, had to go back and change my poll.

'Back To Life' would've been my 9th pick (with Young MC 10th). i was quite excited by Jazzie B in Smash Hits because of his entrepreneurial spirit (I have a sound system, now I have a shop, now I have a #1 hit...) and his talk of an afterlife party on 'the planet 'Ard'
