so tonight is WORK DO NUMBER THREE (in three days), ie TEH BIG ONE, featuring ME on the decks for the entire college. the thing is, i'm not really sure who's coming, my colleagues are from a rather wide demographic, to put it mildly...

what would you play? i'm thinking that HUNG UP will go down very well, as well as the usual xmo faves. also please don't suggest anything i might stupidly have left at home like my effing WHAM cd, bums.

haha, also what wouldn't you play? i'm thinking "in the navy" would be inappropriate (our principal used to be an admiral, you see).

Fight indie with indie

I find myself unable to locate a copy of the Crazy Frog so unless I sneak a Wizzo in next week this is the last of the year.

The new official Best Pop In The World is "Be Mine!" by Robyn - Girls Aloud's score dropped to 7.15 so Robyn's 7.6 wins it. Wizzo round 5 pits the Swedish (she is Swedish, isn't she) tweestrel against indie-or-are-they elecrobangers Ladytron. Whoever wins will either go up against the Frog or will turn up again in the new year when perhaps - GARSP - some new songs may have been released.

Robyn - "Be Mine!"
Ladytron - "Destroy Everything You Touch"

In other pop news, I have downloaded all the EUROBEAT put up by Cis at the weekend - awesome stuff, I am thrilled by the boshing version of "Saturday Night" but the unfamiliar stuff sounds great too. More on this when I've absorbed it a bit.

I also downloaded a few randoms the other night and fell in love again with "Follow Me" by Amanda Lear, which I knew off a hi-NRG compilation, where it was pleasingly incongruous. My imagination is sluggish today so again, I'll write more when I YSI it soon.

I keep thinking of new Orgafun features for this community and having to stop myself. I guess this is positive (the thinking and the stopping).

The Poptimists Advent Calendar Day 16

A gentle song today, a useful lull in the middle of party season.
