I was going to make a comment saying that you people have bad taste in music. But then, I thought, in retrospective, 2007 was a horrible year in music. I have not found a single song with any coherent lyrics at all. Songs today have no meaning, no soul, just a “catchy beat”. Most of the songs this year were just dance and rap bullshit. In conclusion, Radiohead FTW.

Let me guess — it’s Ted Nugent. AMIRITE?

#2 Jay-Z - ROC Boys
#1 Kanye West - Stronger

@DHMBIB: I would put Nicole in the Top 20 so you better not be mocking her at number 1. Timbaland, Keri Hilson & Nicole Scherzinger Scream will tear up January.
@Chris Boeckmann: Cassie, definitely Yes. Britney, what the fuck no.

BUT seeing as this list has Rihanna's Umbrella at #20 and her Hate love song at #11, anything goes. Maybe Daughtry and Nickelback are the 2 1?

I mean, Stronger is only the biggest hit off the year's Number 1 album, and ROC Boys is only Number 1 in Rolling Stones. Or maybe I'm drunk. Or I'm in the wrong Gawker Interblogs.

If I don’t see “No Pussy Blues” in the top 2, I may have to try a different tac and drink a liter of cognac.

I doubt LCD Soundsystem is showing up again; I don't see Maura rating it above all her other picks and I don't see Jess doubling up on an artist. I would exclude Kanye on the same grounds.

@jessdolator: How'd you decide that you would get #1? Also were there any duplicates that you had to decide which of you would write up, or did it work out that there was no overlap?

@jessdolator: UGH THANKS FOR THE SPOILERS. I HAVE SO LITTLE TO LOOK FORWARD TO IN MY LIFE.
