Best Song of 2003: Heat #2

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

Heat #1 saw tATu storm ahead with the best tick-turnout of the decade so far; Yulia and Lena are joined in the final by the White Stripex, Xtina, Jay-X & Beyonxe and RicharX-v-LibertX.

On to heat #2, in which the wailing/gnashing of teeth may rise to new heights. But only five can go through, and it's up to you lot to pick which ones! Choose wisely, o Poptimists...

• You get SIX TICKS over the three bits of the poll, unless you played the investigation game on the previous heat and told us all your new favourite (and why). Put your new favourite in the box below and get an extra tick for the next heat - do this on five or more of the eight heats and get an extra nomination slot for 2004! (thx to credoimprobus for this suggestion)



• The top five in each heat will go through to the next stage. Make sure you rep for your faves in the comments!



• If you want to fill in the 'best song I only heard today' box later, change your vote (or tick too many by mistake), you can edit your votes by clicking on 'Poll #12345' then 'Fill Out Poll'.



• You have until Tuesday lunchtime to vote

[Poll #1478382]


Extra ticks for this heat go to jeff_worrell, credoimprobus, meserach, koganbot and me.

P.S. HALLOWEEN POPTIMISM TONIGHT! Be there or be Jason Bateman in Teen Wolf 2!

I love it (though I didn't nominate it). Electro-beats, wastrel fear, power chords, Save The Children earnestness. I read here that the synth riff that opens the album sounds like thin electric wires in a mesh arrangement. Also mentions quadratic equations (not the A.R.E. Weapons album, but the linked review).

This video seems to contain a cat. But is it really a cat?
