The History Of Jop Epilogue AKA Who do you who do you who do you think you are?

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Tiresome admin bit: I asked on Monday whether we should include the Jackin Pop 2006 results in the overall Pazz and Jop ones. Results were positive but not overwhelming, so I decided to do the poll anyway and if enough people fill it out to make it a comparable sample (hark at the market researcher) it'll count. Otherwise, it won't.

Anyway, 41 tracks, fourteen ticks, here you go.


[Poll #909183]


This also gives me the opportunity for the Joptimists 2005 Top 10!

1. Since U Been Gone (43 votes)
2. 1 Thing (41)
3. Hollaback Girl (34)
4. Hung Up (33)
5. Gold Digger (31)
6. Mr Brightside (26)
7=. I Predict A Lex Coronary (25)
7=. Pon De Replay (25)
9=. Feel Good Inc (24)
9=. Bucky Done Gun (24)

Yeah I agree with Jeff, don't bother. And the best tracks on it aren't even as good as Sov's best ('Ch-Ching', 'Sad Ass Strippa', 'The Battle').

Did I mention on poptimists that I think the current era in British pop is the worst I've ever lived through? And that I don't think it matters because the US (and elsewhere) is hott like fire right now?

I really like 'Bossy' but not enough to tick - however I would have ticked the Switch remix. SO good to dance to! And also so exhausting.

Agree that there's better Sov and better Luke than this track (though none of this year's great Luke ("4ever" and "Nothing In This World" and "Tap That" and "Break You," just off the top of my head) made the Jackin' Pop.
