My Pazz & Jop ballot, 1998

1 - Aqua, "Lollipop (Candyman)"
2 - Spice Girls, "Spice Up Your Life"
3 - Jimmy Ray, "Are You Jimmy Ray?"
4 - Everclear, "I Will Buy You a New Life"
5 - Somethin' for the People featuring Trina and Tamara, "My Love is the Shhh"
6 - Sheryl Crow, "My Favorite Mistake"
7 - Madonna, "Ray of Light"
8 - Hole, "Celebrity Skin"

9 - Will Smith "Gettin' Jiggy Wit It"
10 - Madonna, "Frozen"

"My Love Is the Shhh" was way more '97 than '98, and I think my excuse for voting for "Spice Up Your Life" for '98 is that it had a second life on the dance charts. Or maybe I just didn't know any better.

Are you Fay Wray? Who wants to know?
