Arduous qualifiers completed, it's now time for the songs that made it through to get horrifically mangled in the tournament proper.

One fite, one vote.

Coming up - Pulp, Kelis, Missy, Kelly Clarkson, MORE Prince...

Well how many Stones fans investigated those sources? Was it a big part of being a Stones fan?

On ILM the people who like the PSBs and Madonna do indeed go back and check out the stuff they drew from - Poptimists is definitely part of the rockcrit intelligentsia but it's also more casual in its fandom.

Plus I think part of the appeal of dance-pop is the idea (or illusion) of live-for-the-moment fun it offers, so the roots of it get guiltlessly ignored.
