The Best Pop Songs of the 2000s

I was thinking about this a lot the other night, and I think its time to being the great debate of the Best Pop Song of the 00s over to PMA. Before everyone starts mouthing off some obscure Scandinavian pop songs, here are a few rules.

1. The song had to have achieved notoriety from 2000-present.
2. It pains me to say this, but the song has to have been a nationwide (or worldwide) hit. The bigger, the better, in most cases.

Why? Because pop music is supposed to be universal. Everyone is supposed to enjoy it and love it and everyone can’t love something if they’ve never heard it before. Simple as that.

3. Only one song per artist. Pick their best single, if that helps.

I have a few submissions in mind. Read on to find out Continue reading →

New MP3s: Death Cab, Vampire Weekend, Hot Chip and More…

Low vs Diamon
First, a little Public Service Announcement for those of you who live in Los Angeles. Do any of you have plans for tonight? Well, if you don’t, I have two tickets to go see Low vs Diamond TONIGHT at the Troubadour in West Hollywood at 10:15. If you want the tickets, email me here with the first and last names of the two (2, dos, deux, zwei, twee) people who will be attending the show. The first ones who email me will get the tickets. Thanks!

Meanwhile… New MP3s

1. Death Cab For Cutie – I Will Possess Your Heart MP3 | YSI
Never mind the four-minute instrumental intro in which Ben Gibbard (sort of) rocks out — once he starts singing, it’s still the same sad, mopey glum rock that made Zack Braff (and us) fall in love with him in the first place.

2. Vampire Weekend – Arrows MP3 | YSI
Here’s a Japanese Bonus track off of Vampire Weekend’s ubiquitous self-titled debut. Its quite apparent why the track wasn’t on the album itself, it doesn’t hold its own when placed against the rest of Vampire Weekend. But its worth a listen though.

3. Hot Chip – Sensual Seduction (Snoop Dogg cover) MP3 | YSI
I’m slowly starting to like this song, first Snoop got Robyn on the track with him, but this Hot Chip power was enough to push me through the threshold.

4. Justice – DVNO REMIXES GALORE

5. Nelly ft. Fergie – Party People MP3 | YSI
Nelly is back with Fergie’s help. This song is about as tired as “Grillz” was. So expect mass radio hysteria.
