I vote Scooter, only for the fact that I own seven Scooter albums and singles, all of which were released before 2000.

I'm a sad, sad man.

I realize this is a day old, so this question is merely theoretical, but does anyone else hear shades of that “Be Mine” remix in the beginning of this??

@Maura Johnston: With so many amusing Metro Station fan videos, I'm surprised you posted the real deal

Annie should win. The rest of these tracks are so bad.

Though Scooter is just awful enough to be fun. Plus they've attached themselves to the dumbest dance craze, since...forever: Jumpstyle.

Gotta love the Jumpstyle -- it can only be performed by kids young enough to have not yet developed their irony glands. Plus, it gives anyone over 20 a heart attack inside 3 minutes.

@Thierry: Trust me, you don't want Miley's brother to stop hiding behind the hair.

I am going to vote for it anyway, just because it's hilarious they got together through their Hannah Montana sibs.

Metro Station wins by way of chump seeding. who's voting for Scooter? i mean, not ironically.

if the Lodger's "Good Old Days" doesn't show up in this tourney somewhere, i turn in my Mickey Ears, guys. and don't say it doesn't have a chance to be a hit on mainstream radio because...I KNOW, and neither does half the shit you've posted so far. Alphabeat? on what continent will that be a "summer jam?" and is it a continent that tends to have "summer?"

I’m voting on Scooter today, for sadism’s sake.

@Maura Johnston: I agree on the Annie. That's my absolute summer favorite, by far. Has her version of "Two of Hearts" come out yet?

The Metro Station song would be a massive, summer-dominating
wildebeast right now were it given to Avril instead. Terrible video,
annoying haircuts, but that’s a slick little track.
