2008 People's Choice Award - Best Soundtrack

Who cares what "the people" say. My opinion is the only one that matters, and I say Idea wins.
 
ya wheres realtime in this? the rest I can live with, I really "enjoyed" the realtime soundtrack though, I think they really "pushed" the bar up high for this year.
 
I gotta admit I did like REALTIME as well... Josh Berman is good at what he does. The difference between 5th, 6th and 7th was pretty damn close.
 
...and now for the official press release...

I just watched SSD and the music is absolutely horrendous. Like mute-ably horrendous. Which is not out of character for MSP. However this is based on which soundtrack links have the most clicks on the website... in other words, if I go to see what that terrible, ungodly song was in Push so that I might never experience such pain again, I am counted as "voting" for Push. Of course not many people click on a soundtrack for that reason. It's probably got more to do with the fact that a lot more people watched SSD and Push than watched Idea.
 
Word up!

Everytime I drive someone somewhere they ask if they can have the soundtrack so I keep like 5 copies of it in my glovebox.
