The History Of Pop Part 49 aka Listen to Iron Maiden baby with me

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

A very mixed bag, Now 49 - for every Destiny's Child making a (somewhat delayed) bow in a Now poll, there's a Dido. For every Mis-Teeq, a Marti Pellow. A number of strong candidates should make for an intriguing poll.

The last Now poll was the closest for AGES, with Gorillaz finally beating Shaggy and Nelly F by one vote - "Clint Eastwood" is the lowest-rated winner ever, which makes up slightly for it being the first one I don't actually like.

It is a great album! WHAT DOES THE TITLE MEAN? 'Why' is my favourite record by an all-girl band, I think, post 1970 anyway, almost impossibly perfect.

I like to think of the title as Mis-Teeq's take on the Khia dictum of "lick my pussy AND my crack".

'Why?' is exquisite. Who hasn't seen a suited-up young businessman on public transport and wanted to rip all his clothes off there and then?

Right.

(After some thought I am reluctantly retracting my statement above, but it is still impossibly wonderful)
