I Love #1s - 1990

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

Hi dere campers. We're really missing them Now polls, aren't we? So here is a new semi-regular feature (that probably will end up having a crossover with Popular but what the hey) where we find out if the record-purchasing public agree with Poptimist poll-tickers!

I am randomly starting with.. THE NINETIES!

[Poll #757044]

Despite the prevalence of established artists here (Cliff, Madge, Elton) doesn't it feel like it is DEFINITELY A NEW DECADE? Can you imagine Adamski in 1989? I can't somehow.

FACT : They are all good except for the Beautiful South!

FACT THE SECOND : 'Saviour's Day' is the 3rd best Christmas song of all time after 'A Spaceman Came Travelling' and 'I Believe In Father Christmas'.

Surely "Naughty Christmas" by Fat Les?

Adamski

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

These days he prefers to be known as Adam Sky! Bless!

(Adamski still = 12 yrs old in my mind)

[celentari.livejournal.com]

Um... can't really remember him...

/prepares to be excommunicated

[braisedbywolves.livejournal.com]

it's 100% to 100%! people who haven't voted for anything on the second disk have seleceted themselves out of the democratic process.

[plumsbitch.livejournal.com]

How so? There was no button for THIS IS ALL RUB, so nonvoting=only option...

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

You are correct. I apologise for this hideous oversight in my poll producing!

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

I guess I assumed everyone would be ticking Timmy Mallet :-)

It had Seal doing the vocals!

Wagon Wheel, Seal.

Believing it was all rub = you are disqualified (from the human race)!
