I voted M.I.A.

[MissingPerson]

Ten percent of the vote going to Paper Planes is pretty funny.

[TomAz]

why?

[Courtney]

"Float On"
"All My Friends"
"Young Folks"
"Clint Eastwood"
"Do You Realize?"
"One More Time"

[amyzzz]

I don't know what Paper Planes is.

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

It's MIA. It's a good song.

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

"Float On"
"All My Friends"
"Young Folks"
"Clint Eastwood"
"Do You Realize?"
"One More Time"

We were at a bar the other night when someone put Young Folks on the juke box, and my gf was like, "oh great now everyone in the bar is going to have this fucking song stuck in their heads, THANKS ASSHOLES!" I started laughing.

[MissingPerson]

I really do hate the shit out of MIA.

[SoulDischarge]

Some how, her personality has not been able to ruin Kala for me. I'd rather hear too much M.I.A. at the club than too much Gaga.

[SoulDischarge]

Plus it's fun trying to sing along to gunshots.

[MissingPerson]

Jesus, MIA versus Lady Gaga, it's like a Bizarro world Sophie's Choice.

[JebusLives]

I kinda liked MIA until I watched her at Coachella for 5 minutes. Now its pure antipathy.

[rag and bone]

Plus it's fun trying to sing along to gunshots.

Personally, I'm a big fan of the gesturing.

[rag and bone]

Although, shaking it like a polaroid picture probably wins that contest.

[Gribbz]

I don't think Lady Gaga would be still be around if that costume shop hadn't of fallen on her.

[choice cat]

Hey Ya all the way. This song was literally played non stop on every station.. from kroq to power 106 to star 98.7

[Mr. Fuzz]

Some how, her personality has not been able to ruin Kala for me. I'd rather hear too much M.I.A. at the club than too much Gaga.

You and me both. I love M.I.A and her Coachella 2010 set was off the chain. But gun shots and air horns pump me up!!!

[frizzlefry]

Fuck how did Float On not get on here?

[TomAz]

read.

Don't bitch. don't whine. just vote.

Also, the 10 songs on the list are the #1 singles on the Village Voice Pazz & Jop Poll for every year from 2001 to 2010. The Pazz & Jop Poll is a poll of hundreds of critics nationwide each year. Seemed like a good (i.e., relatively objective) starting point. Whining that your favorite song isn't on the list is pointless idiotic blather.

[guedita]

Whenever I see the word "whine" in print I think of a horse whinnying. It bothers me.

[TomAz]

won't you be my NEIGH-bor.
