Throw away the key

Dear Judge,
Before you stands Mr P. Doherty. A nation watches and silently prays that you see clear and true, and that you do your duty by banging the little bastard up for a good long time. For his own good. And for ours.

The History Of Pop Part 14 AKA Every cowboy sings a sad sad song

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

I would be surprised if NOW 14 was anyone's favourite, but maybe that's just me: the first chunk of '89 seems particularly full of drab bands - Hue and Cry, Then Jericho, Climie Fisher - and unloved pop. BUT I was 16 and 1xBIG ROCKIST even if I did like the Pet Shop Boys. So maybe for you this is pop heaven! Let's see eh?

We have a tie-breaker held over from Now 13, between Erasure and Yazz (I just mistyped this as YESS!) who finished a few votes ahead of D-Mob, Yello and the Proclaimers. This means we have no room for a bonus question, but if we did it would be this: What should the four letter word be in Kim Wilde's "Four Letter Word"?

At the sort-of-request of jauntyalan, a CHART of the votes so far (as of Now 13), ranked by % of tickers.
