44. "2months in a disco," go home productions
in a right and just (and riaa-free) world, ghp would've had about 4 international chart-toppers in '02. they're unquestionably one of my artists of the year; just check out some of their other "hits" that didn't make my chart:
"turn out the light slave! and gimme some rhythm"
"backstab me one more time"
"I dream of pussy"
but their second-best track this year was clearly "2months," which bizarrely and beautifully pairs the trammps' "disco inferno" and underworld's "two months off" in a soundclash with patricia arquette dialogue from true romance. it sounds like such an out-there pairing until you hear it; then it's stomach-kickingly obvious. suddenly, the trammps sound contemporary, and underworld has soul. not to mention that the cowbell from "two months" is blinding backing up "inferno"'s chorus. they're so cool...
