The history of pop part 60 aka Look at your watch girl

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

The controversial Now 60 brings us into 2005. Controversial? Apparently so as the official Now site DOES NOT LIST ITS DETAILS. Looking at the tracklist you might - well I might - say it's not a vintage comp, but there's enough chewy material here to provide some good comments box sport.

"Love Machine" was Girls Aloud's first winner after several near misses - it won by 11 ticks over its nearest Scissor-shaped rivals. And "Some Girls" beat "Hey Ya" in the play-offs for Now 58.

My theory what I have just made up now: crunk was a huge deal-breaker for a lot of pop fans who liked/loved the R'n'B hits of the early 00s.

But why? I really don't see why :(

I dunno about that. If Usher's "Yeah" had been on this Now! I think it would have walked it.

I ticked "Goodies" but I don't think it's anything special as either crunk goes or R&B goes.

I probably should have ticked Ashanti though, as Lex points out. I shall reacquaint myself with it.
