The History Of Pop Part 56 aka My texture is the best fur, of chinchilla

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

For the second Now running, Girls Aloud find themselves in second place, this time by one vote to Justin Timberlake's "Cry Me A River". They get a third shot in the Now 56 poll, covering the end of 2003 - and Justin's back too, though it may well be that neither of them wins it.

Good times, bad times? You decide.

Life Got Cold is easily the worst track on first GA album. I still don't understand why they didn't release Some Kind Of Miracle as a single instead.

That Busted track sounds like an Ash b-side. Very poor.

if Busted = Ash and Ash = indie = not-pop it follows that Busted = not-pop!

'Life Got Cold' has great lyrics. It shouldn't have been the single but I love it lots. For ages I thought 'Forever And A Night' was the duff track on SOTU but no, that is marvellous as well - in fact I don't think Girls Aloud have ever made an outright bad song! Apart from 'Biology' obv.

'Some Kind Of Miracle' is SUB LIME.

Sub lime = Worse than lime cordial?

no, think of it as like SUB BASS (or indeed SUB BASE) - as in Best Ting EVAH
