I promised you I'd put up the AYIPS Halfyear Standings during the weekend. Well, um, it's still Sunday in some parts of the Pacific.

So!

Setting an arbitrary cutoff at a score of 30% voteage, here are the TOP 17 lowhits of the first half of 2008:

1. Vampire Weekend: A Punk (64.7%)
2. Lil' Mama Featuring Chris Brown/T-Pain: Shawty Get Loose (60.0%)
3. Cassie: Is It You (53.6%)
4. Hot Chip: One Pure Thought (50.0%)
5. Girls Aloud: Theme to St Trinians (47.6%)
6. Jennifer Lopez: Hold It, Don't Drop It (47.1%)
7. Portishead: Machine Gun (46.4%)
8. Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds: Dig!!! Lazarus Dig!!! (44.8%)
9=. Duffy: Rockferry (42.9%)

BEST MONTH: April, with 7 of these 17 tracks.
WORST MONTH: June, with None At All.
Other months all have 2 or 3 entries.

The Cassie song, by the way, is the one that has given the most joy in absolute terms, with a total so far of 15 votes.

That's a pretty good list, how does it compare to the main Year in Pop Jan-June list? Pretty well, I'd guess

Step Up 2 The Streets reprazent!

Killa has really grown on me ever since my hip-hop dance tutor started playing it at our classes - it's really great to really lose yourself in, that wall of crunk.

I had already completely forgotten the existence of 'Hold It Don't Drop It'.
