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.

You know, this is a Now of a time I can remember clearly (the others have all been a bit 'oh, erm, yeah, I'll tick everything I know') ie: when I was fourteen and didn't buy Now compilations, in favour of Kerflange! ones and I feel it's unfair that my age group gets landed with this sort of rubbish to pubesce to. No wonder all the kids have ASBOs these days.

Also, I apologise for ticking U2 but stand by the fact that is actually a good song.
