It just occured to me that the Village Voice Pazz and Jop poll is about to run. Then it occurred to me that I had turned in fake entries. Then it occurred to me that I didn’t remember what I turned it. Then it occured to me that there is no way in hell that they will run this, online or print. I faked some of it for my 2002 ballot (scroll down to singles), but I went all the way for this year’s singles section. I’m posting it here, a place that we should just go ahead and assume will be its only home. (I went straight for the full albums, but who cares!?!).
