POPFITES 7 and 8!

The vagaries of a random draw can sometimes throw up early matches that might well have turned up later in the tournament. Our first one today is definitely one of these - one of pop's great icons vs one of pop's great (nay only) 'chameleons'. And our second fight? Somewhat of an undercard...


[Poll #773274]


Last time: ADAM ANT beat Nicola Roberts. AALIYAH beat Geri Halliwell.

David Bowie has NO GOOD SONGS AT ALL therefore Debs wins be default.

A Bowie canon would give me a good chance to rant though. He brings out the Lex in me, mostly because he has THE WORST VOICE IN POP.

I hate Bowie too. Why is he winning? THIS IS DEBBIE HARRY HE IS UP AGAINST!

Bowie = boy with guitar = INDIE AS INDIE CAN BE

heart of glass aside, blondie are far more boys-with-guitars indie jangle than a good half of la bowie's output -- james brown even ripped off a bowie riff!
