Date: 2009-06-23 11:16 am (UTC)There's been crap in all the rounds and I doubt RATM will get as close to qualifying as some of the previous crap. Why are Primal Scream here AGAIN??

Date: 2009-06-23 11:22 am (UTC)I'll be nominating S Club Jr's "Automatic High" though when its time comes.
cus i've been down for so long that i thought hope had gone
Date: 2009-06-23 11:23 am (UTC)I bought this on historic music format unlikely to receive a retro-fashionable revival CASETTE TAPE for £1.49 in historical high street store whose empty husks are being preserved to remember what happens when you get rid of the cups for Pick'n'Mix WOOLWORTHS. That'll be one to confuse the kids one day.
Anyway, it is bl00dy amazing; as Trevor Nelson said at the time, no one even clocked it was a gospel song and from that flirty little bassline that's clearly going to buy you a drank to the lilty summeriness of the whole thing it is 1x AWESOME JAM.
I think I thought it was about S&M at the time. o_0

Date: 2009-06-23 11:32 am (UTC)that bassline!
sigh, poptimists, tick more hip-hop, these are classix
Date: 2009-06-23 11:33 am (UTC)The LOX and Eve. Terrific menacing Timbaland beat, "I rock the icy-ass chain with the earring in my tongue"; this probably didn't start the whole "ride or die" ethos but it's one of the first I remember, and I'm a sucker for that combination of romance and danger.

Three 6 Mafia - DIRTY SOUTH REPRESENT. One of my favourite Three 6 cuts ever and come on you have to tick it b/c it gave our good friends at So Many Shrimp their name!!
Mystikal - just CRAZY, that rigid, disciplined beat and acres of space acting as a straitjacket for lunatic Mystikal threatening to bust out of it at any time. Ahhh, when Pharrell wasn't annoying...

Date: 2009-06-23 11:43 am (UTC)People not ticking 'Shake Ya Ass' are WRONG.

Between this and Cypress Hill there is some proper bludgeon-rap going on here.
