Here's my official ballot as cast in Village Voice's Pazz & Jop 2003.
Okay. You caught me. That's not really me. They don't care what I think. That Mike Wolf is the music editor for Time Out New York. From time-to-time I get e-mail that's intended for him. I guess they figure that there can't be two music snobs in the Tri-State named Mike Wolf. Guess what? There are.
While we're on the subject, that's an awful list, Mr. Wolf. Dead Meadow is just boring and the rest (with the notable exception of Books and Cat Power) is just hipster electronic rock. No thanks. My Mike Wolf list is still here. It's a lot more listenable.

1. "Move Your Feet," Junior Senior
2. "Bowtie," Outkast
3. "Toxic," Britney Spears (!)
4. "When the Last Time," Clipse
5. "What a World," Rufus Wainwright
6. "Ignition (Remix)", R. Kelly
7. "Cry Me a River," Justin Timberlake
8. "There's Gotta Be More to Life," Stacie Orrico
9. "I Want You," Thalia/Fat Joe
10. "Stacey's Mom," FOW
