The History Of Jop Part 27 aka She got one of your kids got you for 18 years

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

And now - the final* Pazz and Jop poll. 2005 - seems like it was yesterday eh?

You have thirteen ticks across 39 boxes - the holdover from last year that I left out was "Galang", if you're interested.


[Poll #904749]


*or potentially penultimate, but I suspect the discussion of the New Times PJ poll will be along the lines of the JP one i.e. poll-free.

2004: Joptimists Verdict

1. Toxic (52 votes - offhand I can't remember anyone ever getting more, and certainly the 91% is huge)
2. Take Me Out (43)
3. What You Waiting For? (38)
4. Chewing Gum (37)
5=. 99 Problems (36)
5=. Galang (36)
7. Heartbeat (33)
8. Drop It Like It's Hot (27)
9. Yeah (Usher) (26)
10. Somebody Told Me (25)

And that's it. If anyone has any ideas for flagship poll series I will take them under consideration!

Fate! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hQIoJqHZII) It definitely wasn't promoted as a single (or as anything else)...I remember hearing it around April '06, through random dling or maybe one of those unreadable omnibus pop dump sites, and figured it must have been from the remix alb.

This is the kind of sound that doesn't seem to really take off in the states, though -- pretty, low-key, coasting Eurodance energy.

Here's someone who put more effort into the video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJFP30gWZM0). But an a cappella version of the song (I guess there are programs that do this?). I kinda like it!
