Poptimists Top 40 of 2007 Part 3

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Right there REALLY WILL be 2 parts of this today, 24-18 now then 17-11 later leaving us the TOP 10 to liven up your Monday.

ALSO: It is POPTIMISM tomorrow where we play only #1 hits from 1952 to the present day! It is from 8 to 2, at The Cross Kings near Kings Cross etc etc - you know the drill by now and if you don't then you can get to know the drill here.

Now on with the CHART.

24. DIZZEE RASCAL - "Pussy'ole (Old Skool)"

You can see the video here, but go here to listen to the non-radio edit, which is probably why it's placing here!

23. FALL OUT BOY - "This Ain't A Scene, It's An Arms Race"

The actual video on YT has awfully muffled sound so for the full emo impact listen here.

22. LLOYD ft LIL WAYNE - "You"

Strong showing in a somewhat R&B-lacking list!

Watch on YouTube

21. THE SOUNDS - "Tony The Beat (Rex The Dog Remix)"

Not an actual video for this, so here's them doing it live as an encore using the Rex mix.

20. T2 - "Heartbroken"

MOAR LIKE THIS PLS.

19. MIA - "Boyz"

Danger STROABS. Yummin yum yumminy yum.

18. GIRLS ALOUD - "Sexy! No No No..."

Did Poptimists collectively decide this video was rubbish? I really like it - unnerving.

'Bamboo Banga' is surely the ultimate Kala banger! I have never heard it out :(

My feeling is that its build up is too slow for Poptimism - would work very well in a mix tho (if I could mix).

I think the start would work really well - it's still quite propulsive and everyone would sing along to "roadrunner, roadrunner", and it'd set the scene for an EXPLOSION when the second beat kicks in.
