Best Song Of 2002: NOMINATIONS
It's 2002, and it's nominations time!
NOMINATION RULES
10 song per person limit on stuff that didn't chart in the UK top 40 in 2002.
Nominate as many charting hits as you like.
Nominating fewer than 10 non-charting songs is perfectly fine.
Do check everyhit.co.uk for chart placings: if your song might be spelled weirdly and doesn't show up in the results, try searching by artist instead of title (or vice versa) or using 'contains the word' instead of 'first few letters'.
Recommend posting nominations in a new comment thread rather than in the middle of another thread, as I am lazy and therefore unlikely to go digging around in nested comments etc.
Don't worry about repeating someone else's nomination - as far as possible I'll let you know if one of your ten picks is already nominated so you can choose another one.
Songs that were released in more than one year should go under the year that gave it its highest chart placing (if it didn't chart then bung it in whichever of the years you like)
Nominate double-A sides separately please!
ARGH ARGH HELP
Some examples:
- Person A nominates tracks 1-10 from an obscure German techno album plus Kylie and Fischerspooner.
- Person B nominates Scooter only.
- Person C nominates the entire top 40 from May 21st 2002 because they loved it so much.
HOW TO DETERMINE THE RELEASE YEAR FOR NON-CHARTING STUFF:
Here's the general criteria for determining what year something falls under:
1. Everyhit
2. Discogs UK release date
3. Discogs US release date
4. My werk database
5. Wikipedia/other interweb source
So if Discogs says it was 2002 but Wikipedia says 2003 then we go with Discogs. If the song doesn't turn up on any of these I'll just take your word for it.
