The History Of Pop Part 55 aka Now, usually I don't do this, but....

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

tATu won the Now 54 poll with Girls Alound a close second. Both groups are in it this time, as are Justin, R Kelly and 50 Cent - and the Fast Food Rockers! "Oh, 2003paws", as we wouldn't have said in 2003.

Lots to talk about here, so why don't we get on with it?

I think CMAR is the one which won a lot of people over - it positioned him as popstar-with-autonomy rather than just popstar-who-makes-good-club-bangers, ie An Artiste. Like I Love You : Cry Me A River :: Dirrty : Beautiful

Personally I think it's gorgeous and rather moving, and I love the way it's not a banger but definitely not a ballad but also not yr conventional mid-tempo pop either (harking back to early Missy there), and he is so fucking fit in the video it's not true and I wanted so much to be that girl who got to sit on him.

it won me over in that it was memorable and sweet. msot everything he's ever done has been just that bit dull for me. there was a time (for me) when it seemed every song he brought out was less memorable than the last.
