Although I didn't submit my Top 10 in time, several of mine appear in the above list, and several more didn't register a single vote, so my Top 10 would have had very little (if any) impact on the overall result.

Bitty McClean!!!!

(also hahaha no points for guessing who voted for NEWS :-))

[atommickbrane.livejournal.com]

Haha, News are shit, who the hell would vote for them, ha ha. Er.

I should say when I submitted this I didn't know I was ranking in order else I probably wouldn't have put it in at all never mind quite so high! But I had listened to it, and FUCK YOU ALL IT'S SO GOOOD!

[alexmacpherson.livejournal.com]

Wow who voted for 'No One'? I don't THINK I did, which was a mistake - it's such a fucking amazing song and was shown far too little love in its relevant top 40 poll. If I was doing my top pop MOMENTS of 07 the "oh-oh-oh-oh-oh"s at the end would be very near the top. Also: reggae remixes! Amazing! Also: 'Like You'll Never See Me Again' is just as good if not better!

Gucci Marie would be a terrific name for a ho-rap girl but the rapper in question is a boy called Gucci Mane. Points are all for Lil' Kim's verse. "Coochie overflowing like somebody left the faucet run"!!!!!

[blue-russian.livejournal.com]

That was me! Quite disappointed that no one else voted for it at ALL. :(

[alexmacpherson.livejournal.com]

Have you heard the amazing reggae rmxes? The Damian Marley one is great but my pick is the one with Beenie Man and a woman variously referred to as Barbie, Barbee, and "etc": http://www.zshare.net/audio/5277296e5ca2b8/

OWN UP

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

Who voted for the Salmon Dance?

Re: OWN UP

[bengraham.livejournal.com]

Probably not my mate Jez even though he thinks it is the best song that's ever been recorded.

Re: OWN UP

[piratemoggy.livejournal.com]

It wasn't me but it should have been.

Re: OWN UP

[mcarratala.livejournal.com]

It was me... and I'm not the least bit apologetic. What's your beef?

Re: OWN UP

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

My beef = surely you can name ten better songs from last year than that! There are ten better Chemical Brothers songs than that!

Tom and Ed, yesterday

[jeff-worrell.livejournal.com]

MODEST FREAKIN' MOUSE!!

[atommickbrane.livejournal.com]

Own up!!!

Re: MODEST FREAKIN' MOUSE!!

[bengraham.livejournal.com]

I'll own up and say that had my vote been received in time, MM would have got another few points for that same song. 'Dashboard' is quality. The rest of Modest Mouse is, well... a bit meh!

Re: MODEST FREAKIN' MOUSE!!

[lisa-go-blind.livejournal.com]

C'est moi.

Re: Admin

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Just my mistake, sorry!

Re: Admin

[lockedintheatti.livejournal.com]

I thought I voted for Princesse (Tango). Obviously I didn't, which was a big mistake on my part, it should have been in my top 5 I reckon. Serves me right for filling my ballot in in a hurry.

My ballot

[justfanoe.livejournal.com]

1. Miley Cyrus - "See You Again"
2. Natasha Bedingfield - "I Wanna Have Your Babies"
3. Aly & AJ - "Potential Break-Up Song"
4. Spoon - "The Underdog"
5. Miranda Lambert - "Guilty In Here"
6. Natalie Imbruglia - "Glorious"
7. Shop Boyz - "Party Like a Rockstar"
8. Britney Spears - "Gimme More"
9. Girls Aloud - "Call the Shots"
10. LeAnn Rimes - "Nothing Better to Do"

[justfanoe.livejournal.com]

Also, who voted Nickelback at #1?

[carsmilesteve.livejournal.com]

i'm wondering if it was anthony...

also i can spot at least two other 12s up there and who they may belong to (the last two, but that's quite straightforward given that they've both mentioned them in Other Places)...

mine:

tony the beat (rex remix) - the sounds
stronger - kanye west
sexy no, no, no - girls aloud
apply some pressure - mark ronson ft paul smith
generator - the holloways
girlfriend - avril
competition - dragonette
direct hit - art brut
damn, you look good and i'm drunk - cobra starship
cape cod kwassa kwassa - vampire weekend

[alexmacpherson.livejournal.com]

To the voters for R Kelly, Megan Rochell, Natasha, T-Pain, Nicole Scherzinger, 'About You Now' and the extended 'Get Me Bodied' - WELL DONE! You made up for my being unable to fit those in.

'Call My Name' is terrific but it's from 2005 if not before.

[credoimprobus]

Haha the Call My Name is mine -- I was the only one who took the "doesn't need to be from 07" to heart, it seems (mostly because the list I post in my own journal yearly goes strictly by when I hear something rather than when it was out).

I also fess to the Get Me Bodied! It was actually my number one for a bit, before I Has a Plan lunged back up to the top spot.

[alexmacpherson.livejournal.com]

The Naomi Campbell walk! Scrap everything I said the other week - THAT was the most fun song to dance to in 07.

[jeff-worrell.livejournal.com]

'Hey Hey Hey' was me. It was the only thing on my ballot that didn't get at least one other vote. Next year I'm a gonna go the Julio route ;)

[mostlyconnect.livejournal.com]

I'm kind of staggered no-one else voted for Crank Dat! I thought it was top 10 for sure.

Mine:
1. Umbrella
2. Potential Break-Up Song
3. Grace Kelly
4. Make It Rain
5. Paper Planes
6. Love Today
7. Beautiful Girls
8. Crank Dat
9-10 I did not actually voted with these, I think it's been a terrible year for pop :(

[koganbot]

It had you feeling suicidal, suicidal.

[mostlyconnect.livejournal.com]

Haha yes that was a bright spot!

[lisa-go-blind.livejournal.com]

My list:
01) Spoon - Don't You Evah
02) Simian Mobile Disco - I Believe
03) Amy Winehouse - You Know I'm No Good
04) Klaxons - Golden Skans
05) Art Brut - Direct Hit
06) Electrelane - To the East
07) M.I.A. - Paper Planes
08) Maximo Park - Our Velocity
09) LCD Soundsystem - All My Friends
10) Modest Mouse - Dashboard

I was the only voter on several of those, but I'm particularly surprised with "You Know I'm No Good." Then again, it was released in January, so I guess most people filed it away with 2006 releases. I do find it funny that there was the expectation for "All My Friends" to edge its way near the top of the countdown, and it only got a sad two points.
