Does anyone else feel the need to discuss this list?

For one thing, I'm pleased with the amount of pop music that made the list, though the vast majority of it seems to be "black," R&B leaning pop. Granted, I'm definitely someone who thinks that the best pop music that's been released in the past few years has been R&B and rap, but come on, no Taylor Swift (a small gripe, but I think a valid one if you pay attention to pop music)? Also, it's great that they're showing Aaliyah some love (R.I.P.) but I personally don't care for the two songs of hers' that made the list, and I think that "Rock the Boat" and "More Than a Woman" are better aughts Aaliyah tracks. I mean, of course all of this shit is subjective, but i'm seriously baffled by some of these choices.

Lastly, I strongly feel that the two Kylie Minogue songs that made the list should be in opposite order.

I thought this was pretty amusing. Brutal, but amusing.
