Crikey. Energy Flash only three votes better than Hey Jealousy. You can't blame that one on the British contingent.

How come "Poison" wasn't nominated, anyway? Was that the one that Roxy was pushing for? I seriously think that could've gone top 40.

someone earlier mentioned "cannonball" as an indie fuxor song, and based on who plays it, sure. but musically it's pure contrived over-the-top pop. if kylie did it instead it would've been no. 1!

I voted for "Just for a Second"

I really must hear 'Hey Jealousy'. The talk of it intrigues me.
Ah, it was all worth it.
Curious, of the "Hey Jealousy" haters out there, when was the last time you heard the song?

I'm a little bit disappointed with the results in that the great majority of my favorites didn't place, and those that did were really quite low. Still, a very cool top ten--and much less obvious than I expected.

Though I'm a bit surprised Blackstreet gets #11 and Ginuwine doesn't make it at all, yeah.

This is quite something! You manage to maintain superiority regardless of whether it makes the poll. Seriously, that's rad work.

I'm glad I never got around to doing the blurb I was planning on writing for "Hey Jealousy". It would've been an awful lot of passion and energy for a song that didn't even make the list.
― The Good Dr. Bill (Andrew Unterberger), Wednesday, 10 November 2004 22:18 (nineteen years ago) link
Sorry - bad English. I meant: we're fools for not voting it into the top 100, but even if we had done, it would only have been because we're obsessed with Timbaland.
― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 10 November 2004 22:18 (nineteen years ago) link
apparently so - and I voted for two of those tracks; I imagine other DI voters did the same, so the actual # of different ppl who picked their songs is probably even lower than those totals suggest.
