So, ladies and gentlemen, rockers and ravers, pundits and promoters, etc etc etc, welcome one and all to stage two of the CMU Track Of The Year poll, the annual survey of the CMU readership as to the greatest and most fulfilling tracks of the last twelve months.
Over the last month CMU readers from across the music business and music media have been voting hard for their favourite tracks, with some of their votes and justifications having appeared at the top of the Daily.
That stage of voting is now closed, the maths has been done, verified and put in front of an independent Track Of The Year compliance committee, who confirmed no old aged pensioners had been offended in the preparation of this poll.
And now, we're proud to say, we have the final ten. These are the ten tracks most voted for by you the CMU readership, presented for your convenience in alphabetical order. Woo.
The Final Ten:
Alphabeat - Fascination
Elbow - One Day Like This
Foals - Cassius
Florence & The Machine - Dog Days Are Over
Glasvegas - Geraldine
Hot Chip - Ready For The Floor
Katy Perry - I Kissed A Girl
MGMT - Time To Pretend
Sam Sparro - Black & Gold
Santogold - L.E.S. Artistes
OK, it's time for part two of the poll. Oblivious of who you voted for in stage one - or even if you didn't vote at all - now we want you to pick your favourite out of this shortlist and email its name to [email protected].
You have a week to do so, with the overall winner set to be announced at the top of next Monday's CMU Daily which, as it happens, will be the War & Peace epic that is the CMU Review Of The Music Year. Happy voting.
