The History Of Pop Part 48 aka Pure and simple, I'll be there for you

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

2001: A Pop Odyssey! As the Now series gets ever closer to today, a significant first - the first (modern) reality TV pop hit in the form of "Pure And Simple". Also debuting: Gorillaz, Bob The Builder, unlikely Poptimist icons Feeder, and nu-metal in the apologetic shape of Papa Roach.

All Saints' "Pure Shores" won Now 47 - hatas can reflect that it got one of the lowest winning %ages ever, with only 2/3 approval. Modjo second, Nelly third, and EVERYTHING got at least one vote - will we be able to say the same after this poll?


[Poll #738675]


TICKY TO RIDE.

hmmm, i remember the name, but didn't think this is what it was called, i thought they were either "the trouble with me" or "lady"...

don't think this was their better known track. tho for the life of me i can't recall that one either.

this is a terrible haul - tho perhaps i have just forgotten a few. i ticked "all rub" twice! a fumble of the ball?? SAVE US NEXT NOW POLL you're our only hope.
