Dizzee & Calvin have clung on despite McFly's best efforts! Elsewhere, Annie's new single stalls at no.54 and a truly awful video puts CSS in at no.78.

NOW 66

[piratemoggy.livejournal.com]

Hello poptimists, it's time to once more celebrate the great institution that is NOW compilations, giving your mum the chance to discard the popular music of a full six-month time period using only a handy two-disc/tape compilation since 1981.

We do this, like all things, with ticky boxes. Today we are ticking songs from NOW 66, released early in 2007, I think. Over the next indefinite time period I will be posting the rest of the compilations up to the current one for your ticking pleasure. Click the tag if you'd like to peruse back-issues of the NOW polls, the Hall Of Fame created from the polls is viewable in the userinfo.

Help The View Write Their New Album

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

"The Band have recorded 4 songs for their new album...'Jimmys Crazy Conspiracy' about their mate Jimmys conspiracy theories, '5 Rebeccas' is about one night in which they met 5 girls all called Rebecca"

(via the_roofdog, dunno where he got it from)

I think we can help The View write more songs, don't you? Let's put a tracklist together!

1. Jimmy's Crazy Conspiracy
2. 5 Rebeccas
3. Biggest Pigeon - "the band were on tour and saw what had to be the biggest pigeon ever. It was huge!"
4. Three At Once - "don't worry, it's not about their bedroom antics. It's about how the singer had to wait ages for a taxi one night and then suddenly three of them turned up!"

TO BE CONTINUED BY YOU...
