Quite possibly the last Pazz and Jop poll for a little while - 2001: A Jop Odyssey.

You get THIRTEEN ticks - Coldplay's "Yellow" is #5 in this poll but you got the chance to vote for it last time so it's left out.


[Poll #873942]


Let's All Vote Jop In The Year 2000

1. Say My Name (42 votes)
2. Oops I Did It Again (39)
3. Ms Jackson (38)
4=. Try Again (37)
4=. Independent Women Part 1 (37)
6. B.O.B. (31)
7=. The Real Slim Shady (29)
7=. Jumpin Jumpin (29)
9=. Stan (27)
9=. Forgot About Dre (27)

The only one of 42 tracks not to get a tick was "I Wish" by R Kelly.

Room On Fire is the record that made me retrospectively like The Strokes. I mean, clearly The Lex is wrong and they're by far and away the most important band here* even if most of what followed them was appalling. I'm not sure the influence of Destiny's Child is actually that great.

*I would never have predicted my saying this five years ago. In fact I think I would've been disgusted with myself.

I don't think, retrospectively, 2001-era Daft Punk had that great an influence (compared to 1997-era DP). House music in general had a big shift away from the whole French thing about a year later, although I suppose you could argue they had a key role in the 80s revival.

That said, I reckon the 80s revival and with it electroclash/house would probably have happened anyway. It's hard to imagine many of the big guitar bands of the last few years having the same impact without the appearance of the Strokes.

i don't know if The Strokes actually sold any more than Daft Punk tho. probably less.

and we all revere DP so much more than the Strokes now

plus which bands REALLY sounded like The Strokes anyway? i suppose it was more 'we can be retro but in a different way' general thing. but Coldplay and co. were bigger still.

take me out intro = the strokes omg11
take me out the rest of the song = daft punk!!111)

but yes...album overall admittedly owes more to Strokes i guess. i wish they'd done something that sounded EXACTLY like 'Aerodynamic' (er, see also The Darkness)

1st Franz alb has a track whose synth line sounds like it belongs on a Stacey Q alb. I can think of no higher praise for a synth line. (Unfortunately I don't remember the track title [think it's something written in Swiss] and my CDs are 2,000 miles away at the moment.)
