The History Of Pop Part 35 aka The mac's back with the flava of the year

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Now 35, and we're still deep in the heart of 1996, a year I didn't much enjoy on any level, and this compilation isn't exactly beckoning me back to it. The Spice Girls ended up equal second on Now 34, tying with Underworld and two votes behind shoXoR winner Gina G: they get another go this time, as do all-conquering Pulp (with an BALLAD). Beyond that....well, I'll save my fingers for the comments boxes.

If there's one band where the woman are empowered and treat with equal dignity as the male members, it's the Beautiful So oh wait.

It doesn't matter how they're treated all it matters is that they sing and sound nice.

(I may regret this particularly sweeping generalism)
