poptimistsNow 30, like 1995, starts slow but then explodes into full-on dance mania as high street clubbing meets pop and a flood of great, blink-and-you-miss-them hits follow. Handbagmania! In amongst the dance tunes we have dadpop, Britpop, a bit of r'n'b and a sprinkling of trip-hop. It's a big poll with some big questions: have at it.
One of the big questions is - what's going to win Now 29? Kylie and Shampoo were tied on 34 votes each, just ahead of Whigfield and Corona, so there's a straight choice to be made here. Meanwhile Oasis highpoints clustered around Cigs and Boose, Live Forever and Supersonic: Wasis make the first of several reapparances on today's poll.
1995 - whatwere are we thinking?

Date: 2006-03-08 02:52 pm (UTC)Also by the time it actually came out warehouse rave had become either jungle or happy hardcore so it sounded a bit dated(!).
All of which put me right off. I thought Kelly Llorena's vocals were really awful as well - this was the main problem for me (seeing as I liked a lot of the 'Toytown Techno'/inauthentic/overground stuff from before).
And er, I was jealous of the fun they were having in the video, but I accept that last point is certainly no reason to harbour anti-pop grudge ;)
