Hey, MTV, hey, hey, remember when those letters meant something?

Oh hi MTV, I didn't even know you were still showing musicvideos, but yes, I do like to participate in a poll to pick the best one of the 2000s. What is that you say? I should only vote for lady Gaga, because apparently all the music that came before her is already out of date? Well, excuse me for voting for my favorite instead. I don't even know the video you promote. (FYI: the only other video I remember is Hey Ya by Outkast and even though I LOVE Greenday, I don't have a visual for that song. Must be because I always seem to miss the times MTV actually shows musicvideos.) Way to be impartial. Did you maybe already invite her for a big hoohaa at the awardsceremony? Sucks to be you then. Go congratulate the winners;)

Okay, fine, Panic! At The Disco hasn't won yet, after all: the poll is open until August 24 and a lot can happen. But still: it's one thing to ask people to vote and an entirely other thing to push your 'hip' opinion on the public and tell the fans they're being silly. I happen to think this video is the best of all. So there.

Want to vote? Here are all the contestants!

I think the part that pissed me off the most was how they acted like Panic! at the Disco was irrelevant because the video was 'so old'. I know that the mainstream world of manufactured entertainment has no long term memory, but damn. It's no wonder the industry is collapsing, no one is taught to value it for more than a few moments before wandering off to find something else shiny. Ugh.

I've been voting constantly as much as I was allowed to since the poll opened. I hope we win against all odds.

Hadn't read that, but that pisses me OFF. It's called '... of the DECADE', Mtv, not 'of the year'. You made a poll, now accept the results. Graaaah.

Just went to vote, and Panic! is at 48% of the votes! :-D
