poptimistsIt's MONSTERS vs MINNOWS in the latest Now poll. In one corner, a huge wedge of the songs that made Poptimism great (and made 2003 the most exciting year EVER according to the demographics poll) (full results to follow) (ahem). In the other corner, a parade of horrors as reality pop turns horribly wrong. Plumb in the middle, "Cocks More Like" by the Coldplays.
Sugababes' "Round Round" topped Now 53 fairly easily, 4 votes ahead of Ms Dynamite: they also won the Now 52 tie-break, so good for them. Can they make it three Now polls in a row? No, is the short answer, because take a look at the competition...

Date: 2006-07-04 12:51 pm (UTC)The first album is start-to-finish excellent, too. Second album has one (1) great song on it and a bunch of dodgy soft rock tracks. 'All The Things She Said' - no one has yet topped this in this decade yet!

Date: 2006-07-04 12:51 pm (UTC)- Massive Attack single was best thing off a substandard album, by no means bad but lacking any sort of pop bits like in eg Unfinished Sympathy/Protection
- I cried when I heard the Mock Turtles remix on the vodafone ad as it was a much loved song of Mine Youth and they had to go and ruin it.
- This was the year I was working at Island and saw Sugababes release an ace album/Kym Marsh get dropped like an stone/Busted go supernova from behind the scenes (ie YEAR OF ACE)
- Justin Timberlake is a v good dancer but not a v good singer
