I vote 'Where is the love' by 'The black eyedpeas'
taken from the album 'Elephunk'

For best hit I'd have to go with "Crazy In Love" and "Hey Ya".

For best non-hit I'd have to go with "New Killer Star" and "Nothing Fails".

Agreed. "Where Is The Love" is very derivative and bland (to me).

VoicesCarry said:

You would pick exactly these 4 songs?

TRON said:

Yes, oddly enough. They're probably my 4 favourites of the year. I would also have to include anything from Annie Lennox's "Bare" album under the 'non-hits' category though (unfortunately, they weren't hits).

VoicesCarry said:

Yeah, Pavement Cracks and Loneliness would be up there for me too.

Crazy in Love. VERY catchy.

Best song is 7 Nation Army by the White Stripes

You do know the horn in Crazy In Love is a sample?

2freaky4church1 said:

Yes, I did (at least).

I think the best song of 2003 is Frontin' by Pharrell

Where is the Love sucks very very much.

or "crazy in love".

'where is the love?' has the corniest hook ever.
i wouldn't vote for this song even if prince was on it.
i'm going for 'crazy in love'--nice song and a big hit!

The stupid things - Thicke
Officially missing you - Tamia

Hey Ya

I agree! The White Stripes are very cool.

I was wondering just earlier today if one song stood out from all the rest I've heard this year...

Red Rover - Fleetwood Mac.

I don't know why, tho'.
Guess I just think it's a great song.

I like "Seven Nation Army" too.
How about "Go With The Flow" by Queens Of The Stone Age??

i've been wavering on this issue between about 3 or 4 songs:

Pavement Cracks - Annie Lennox
New Killer Star - David Bowie
Bandit - Neil Young & Crazy Horse
The Have and the Have Nots - Phil Roy

as for hit singles, hands down for me it's Hey Ya! - Outkast

1. Pink and Blue by Andre 3000 of Outkast
2. The Way You Move by Big Boi of Outkast
3. Millionaire by Kelis (produced by Andre 3000 of Outkast)
4. Hey Ya by Andre 3000 of Outkast

It's definitely the best song off the Say You Will album. It kinda reminds me of Tusk and confirms Buckinghams genius.

I thought you were dead!

Er...yeah, it is the best song on the album.

"Clocks" by Coldplay

Nice choice

Sdldawn said:

Yes, very nice choice.

I'd have to say "Hey Ya" or "Crazy in Love," the latter of which I'm not even a big fan of -- but it is infectious.

best song???

that would either be:


it's five o' clock somewhere ~ Alan Jackson

or, and i think i'll go with this one:

Hurt ~ Johnny Cash
