Between Cuff It and BMS I'm definitely going for Cuff It so! Would rather have AHAP, VG, and whatever else in BMS's place but whatever.

Shocking they beat Carly that year.
potent Posted January 23, 2023 Posted January 23, 2023 AIW is a bop despite being basic so it's fine with me. No complaints about the top 2 either, for a long time BMS was going to be my #1 but then I decided to have a few songs higher instead. Still a great choice though. 2 minutes ago, supaspaz said: “Time Escaping” Big Thief “Spitting Off the Edge of the World” Yeah Yeah Yeahs ft.

ATRL Moderator wehavetostan Posted January 23, 2023 ATRL Moderator Posted January 23, 2023 I didn’t even vote but I’m glad my #1 song of the year was the same as everyone else’s

But "Call Me Maybe" is one of the greatest pop songs and should have been right up ATRL's alley.

(Funnily enough, those were the number 2s of their respective years!) Gaga had three songs make the top 10 in 09, but Ms. Clarkson was the sleeper cell. Just mass ... liking? And no split votes, as that was the only hit off the album for a while.
ATRL Moderator supaspaz Posted January 23, 2023 ATRL Moderator Posted January 23, 2023 1 minute ago, Reverie said: Did Kelly stans show out in 2009 or what cuz LMAO I think it did really well because it was the return of this massive, guitar-driven pop sound that had been dormant for a couple of years. ATRL at that time loved the pop-punk sound. "My Happy Ending" was basically considered the greatest song of all time.
ATRL Moderator Ace Reject Posted January 23, 2023 Author ATRL Moderator Posted January 23, 2023 There were a lot more Kelly fans back then too!
ATRL Moderator madonnas Posted January 23, 2023 ATRL Moderator Posted January 23, 2023 I 1000% remember Gotye winning one of these or am I crazy and thinking wrong?
