Hot in Herre. That is all. ---

The best songs here are _My Sweet Lord_ and _Candle In The Wind /Something About The Way You Look Tonight_ by a huge margin but since they came out - what ? - 30 years before 2002, i didn’t vote for them. _Hot in Herre_ and _Die Another Day_ are the only two songs from that year that I vaguely remember, so they get my vote (which does not mean that they’re good songs…) ---

Enya got my vote again as did the Elvis remix, George Harrison’s 1970 song, Nelly(he was at his peak around this time), Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger’s Superman soundtrack, N’Sync and Nelly, Oasis(one of their weakest songs), U2 and Kelly Clarkson’s debut.
