| #1 Posted on 10.1.11 2128.19 | Welcome to the FIFTEENTH Fuzzies! (I'm late this year.) I've posted this here for a while so I think most of you know how this works. Two votes in each normal category, three in the Hall of Fame. Voting lasts until Sunday the 23rd (although I honestly don't know why I keep voting alive that long when I generally get votes for about four days and then just sit on it, but whatever man...)
All hyperlinks go to a related Youtube video, in case you're not familiar with all the nominees. Also, don't feel like you need to vote in every category - feel free to cast votes in as few (or as many) as you like.
Post your votes here or send them in a PM. Thanks a million!

I may be in the minority here, but I didn't get the love for Kanye's new album. Didn't work for me, personally. And I usually LOVE his stuff (yes, even "808's and Heartbreaks").

| #10 Posted on 13.1.11 1622.10 | Instant Rating: 0.00 | Like some others, I'm not all that aware of a lot of this stuff. I don't listen to much new-music radio these days. There was a bunch of stuff that I found on the web this year and liked, most of which is not here. "Baby Lee" by Teenage Fanclub, "Crash Years" by New Pronographers, and "After You're Gone" by the Len Price 3 were my favorite songs of the year. But let's see what's worth a vote (I'll be skipping some categories).

"Unbreak My Heart", by Weezer

They have clever videos, and they're the only nominee I saw live this year. Actually, outside of the Hall of Fame category I think they're the only nominee I've seen live ever.
