Almost forgot to put this one up today. My bad.

This is the final semi-final that will decide what songs get to compete for the honor of Official SDMB-Approved Greatest #1 Jam Of All Time. The decade’s only half-over, so we just get five songs to pick from, but what a set of songs it is.

Make sure you vote in any remaining best-of polls before Tuesday morning when the final poll will go live.

Previous polls: 1955-56 1957 1958 1959 1960 1961 1962 1963 1964 1965 1966 1967 1968 1969 1970 1971 1972 1973 1974 1975 1976 1977 1978 1979 1980 1981 1982 1983 1984 1985 1986 1987 1988 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 1950s 1960s 1970s 1980s 1990s 2000s

Hard time choosing between Tik Tok and Somebody That I Used to Know. Went with Gotye because it seemed just a bit more awesome.

3

I like these choices. Went with Royals, but could’ve went with any of the others.

4

Did not hesitate to vote for Pharrell.

5

A couple of good choices but Gotye was my pick.

6

Gotye w/ Kimbra - Somebody That I Used To Know is the clear winner for me and I’m stunned that it’s only 3rd so far.

Williams and Lorde (in that order) are the runners up.

Adele’s song is ok.

TiK ToK on the clock, but the party don’t stop, no.

As one of four #1 songs ever to get a perfect score in the world-famous Ponch8 Music Rating System (the others being “Right Round,” “We R Who We R,” and “Timber,”) my vote obviously goes to Kesha’s “TiK ToK.”

Consolation prize for best non-Kesha song goes to “Royals.”

“Happy” finishes in dead-ass last place. It’s not horrible, but I just don’t like it.

I voted for Gotye, but don’t mind that Royals is leading the poll
