Welcome to the first round of voting for ROTD, now onto 2009 and 2010.

 

You have to somehow cut down this list of 84 songs to 25 or less. You can vote from 25 to 10 songs and you this by granting +25 points to your favourite and +1 to your 25th favourite etc.

 

The top 25 songs from this heat will qualify for the final to go up against the autoqualifiers to see if any of them can dislodge one of the others from the Buzzjack fave status that being an autoqualifier offers you.

 

Here is 2009, an excellent year for pop, RedOne and Gaga, but she's not here. Other things are. Vote for them.

How were these 84 songs initially picked, though? Curious about it.

 

People nominated them in this thread here because they liked them and they weren't one of the 35 songs already through to the second round because doing well in last year's iteration of this competition.
