poptimistsTHE MAIN EVENT! These are #s 50-42 of the Top 50 as voted for by you (there's a tie at #40 so we'll see those tomorrow). Thanks to the miracle of embedding disabled by request you'll have to investigate some of these away from the comforting womb of LJ - sorry, it's The Man's fault.
50. BRITNEY SPEARS - "Womanizer"
Something of a fall from grace for poptimists favourite Britney: the nudie video to her song about a machine that makes women can be found here.
49. BLACKOUT CREW - "Put A Donk On It"
A lesson we can all learn.
47=. THE VERONICAS - "Untouched"
Imperious, desperate teenpop.
47=. DAVEIGH CHASE - "The Happiest Girl In The Whole USA"
Something of a surprise entry, this isn't a single or even released track, it's a performance from TV drama Big Love, which I had never heard of. I will leave it to its nominators to explain the context (tho you can get the gist on Wikipedia)
45=. PUSSYCAT DOLLS - "When I Grow Up"
Embedding disabled on all PCDs' videos, here is this one.
45=. BLACK KIDS - "I'm Not Going To Teach Your Boyfriend How To Dance With You"
It strikes me that Universal are shooting themselves in the foot a bit by refusing to make the video from nindie pan-flashers Black Kids embeddable! Hear its jaunty retro-jangle here.
44. PUSSYCAT DOLLS - "I Hate This Part"
Them again! Beating its fellow Pussycat track by a whisker - here the girls get a bit more sensitive.
43. IDA MARIA - "I Like You So Much Better When You're Naked"
A scratchy vid that takes me back to the halcyon days of Mambo Taxi etc. Not much talked about on Poptimists, it seems to me.
42. PALEFACE ft KYLA - "Do You Mind (Crazy Couzinz Remix)"
For whatever reason, funky house hasn't caught the poptimist imagination the way bassline did last year (though actually I think only T2 showed up in last year's poll). I like Kyla, she has an honest face.
Check back tomorrow for #40-31!
