And 2004 is REALLY going to make me commit suicide

[koganbot]

Here is a very incomplete list of songs that I'd want to nominate for the best of 2002 competition but won't be able to because I'll be choosing another ten (unless someone else nominates one or more of those ten, I hope):

Sweetbox "Human Sacrifice"
Mylène Farmer "C'est Une Belle Journée"
The Hold Steady "Positive Jam" Er, this is really 2004
Blake Shelton "Ol' Red"
The Dixie Chicks "Long Time Gone"
Faith Hill "One"
Tony Touch feat. Fat Joe, N.O.R.E., & Juju "Capicu"
M2M "Everything"
Pretty Suicide "Fruit"
Montgomery Gentry "Free Fall"
Field Mob "K.A.N."
Mindy McCready "Don't Speak"

In truth I've already got a list of 21 songs to nominate, 11 of them having hit in the U.K.

I have one spare slot on my list (pending others choosing the same things, of course - I can imagine two or three getting picked), so will add 'Everything' to mine. I also have 28 hits to nominate, but I will get beaten to many obvious ones.

Frank - I haven't started to put my ideas together yet but I'll likely nominate "One" at least, from that list.

Turns out "One" was belatedly released to Adult Contemporary as a single in 2003.

Oh good, now we get to wait one more year to see it languish in the first round on 3 votes. (You me and Chuck)

I'd probably be game for Faith Hill, Dixie Chicks, and M2M if I have slots. For the most part I'm better at nominating official singles, since tracks and songs always slip my mind during nominations for some reason. (I suppose I could start thinking about it in earnest sooner than five seconds before the poll closes.)

Well, I've got a bunch of old P&J ballots to look at (among other things; though some of these are album tracks).

The point of this wasn't to get you to nominate tracks on my behalf, more just to display my agony in the face of all that music. But it's good that we remind each other of what's out there.
