SHEEE-YEENE POLL #1 aka will there be another breakdown?

[atommickbrane.livejournal.com]

The Now polls are all good and proper, aren't they? But surely, around the time of Now 29, Now 30, a new breed of compilation entered the arena. Taking as it's theme the indie big hitters from the Now Polls, the mighty SHINE series catered to a growing crowd of kids who were reading about a new thing called "britpop" in Smash Hits. If you ask me, SH! always seemed rather obsessed with Damon All-Bran's TIBETAN LOVE BEAD necklace. Ew.

Those people who have ticked the Cranberries, have you made a catsgomiaow-style ACCIDENT? Because you surely didn't mean to tick the MOST VILE SONG EVER, did you?

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

I always think that original Zombie is better than it is, because the ADAM and Amy bosh version was SO AMAZING. But of course it isn't.

Would these same people tick "I Just Shot John Lennon"?

ts: "ticking i shot JL" vs "SHOOTING JL"

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

Don't forget the dots. It is A.D.A.M ft Amy.

I have this on "In The Hits, '96" but it is on tape so cannot YSI.

'zombie' is better than the VAST MAJORITY of this dreadful compilation!

oh sarah i think you have broken me!

[boyofbadgers.livejournal.com]

You are actually mad.

[alexmacpherson.livejournal.com]

'zombie' is by far the best Bad Song (there are but three Good Songs)

[marnameow.livejournal.com]

But ver Cranberries are the indiest thing ever. They won the Big Nindow Prize twenty seven times running.

[alexmacpherson.livejournal.com]

it's still terrible! just not as terrible as eg oasis (does a sick), shed abysmal seven etc etc

[marnameow.livejournal.com]

No, you are confused. It is on such a scale of terrible as to make everything else on this comp, even horrible, horrible Oasis, seem GOOD.

Apart from anything else, I'm surprised you've no affection for Electronic. Bernard Sumner + Neil Tennant = catnip for the Lex, I would have thought.

[alexmacpherson.livejournal.com]

I have never heard Electronic!
