    No, y’all! I CAN’T CHOOSE!

    Man up dude, you know Annie’s is the stronger track. “American Boy” played itself out before the first rays of summer sun hit your convertible.

  3. brasstax  |   Posted on Jun 13th, 2008

    But Kanye’s part is so good!

    @brasstax: But it’s Annie!!

  5. brasstax  |   Posted on Jun 13th, 2008

    @DavidWatts: I know, I know! That’s why it’s tough.

    @brasstax: I know, I actually voted for Esetlle after that. Annie is great and all, but that other track is kind of the shit.

    So very close, but in the end I went with Estelle because that song sounds more summery to me.

    estelle for me. i think i will hear that song at picnics and family gatherings for the next 3 months and i’m ok with that.

    i’m not sure i get the annie love. i guess i’m more of a robyn chick.

    I vote for Alphabeat again.

  10. tankboy  |   Posted on Jun 13th, 2008

    @musicquizking: Good thinking!

    Why must we choose? Can’t we have both? The gods of summer (and Idolator) are cruel.

  12. Nunya B  |   Posted on Jun 13th, 2008

    It’s like Sophie’s Choice but I’m going with Annie because the ring-a-ding-ding part is my ringtone and no part of Estelle’s amazing track is ringtone-worthy.

    The Annie track is good. Very good. But c’mon, “American Boy” is MONSTROUS. It towers over other summer jams. Regardless of how this vote goes, Estelle *actually* has a shot at owning summer. Sorry Annie…your video is very good though!

    That Annie character is played by Amy Poehler, right?

  15. bcapirigi  |   Posted on Jun 15th, 2008

    estelle’s really pretty. i hadn’t actually noticed before.

    still, i prefer the annie song because of a) the ring-a-ding-ding part and b) the lack of assy kanye west.

    “American Boy” is REALLY growing on me. No competition here with Annie, who I’m officially freakin’ sick of for reals, now. Blah blah blah. *yawn*

    I even like Kanye’s bit and his Mockney flow. Ha!
