POPFITES! 13, 14, 15 and 16!

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Because I was too busy to do a POPFITE yesterday you get FOUR clashes today, to finish off the first round. In previous fites JARVIS won a convincing victory over CHRIS LOWE, and MICK JAGGER won out against HANK WILLIAMS.

As for today's fights, words cannot do them justice (i.e. I am starving and need to upload this and go get a sammich).


[Poll #780065]


TICK POWER!

I still contend that you had to work a lot less hard to hear Ciara than the Killers. By the time 'Goodies' came out I'd possessed it for a good four months, whereas I had to actively seek the Killers out half a year on to see what the fuss was about (ans: nothing)

i think 'somebody told me' was somehow more ubiquitous in our society as a whole tho.

i was really (pleasantly) surprised when 'Goodies' made #1 even tho it was during New Year slump.

Not my society it's not.

You are the Pinefox and I claim my five Lloyd Cole bootlegs.

Tori Amos once did a really really amazing cover of a Lloyd Cole song called 'Rattlesnakes'!

we are all in the same society you silly. obv. it's a generalisation.

Yes but you DIDN'T KNOW WHAT A PLAYSTATION WAS UNTIL A YEAR AGO.

[alexmacpherson.livejournal.com]

That has nothing to do with anything!

[awesomewells.livejournal.com]

It has everything to do with it! Ie your endless references to The Man On The Street and The Kids On The Bus coupled with your complete ignorance of the vast majority of what both strawmen are actually into.

Stab in the dark here, but I suspect the Playstation is more important to the lives of the Kids On The Bus than Ciara or the Killers or even Britney or Madonna. By a country mile. Therefore you don't understand popular culture = you don't understand pop. QED.

you are starting from wrong premise - the premise is "Lex understands popular culture" so if Lex does not understand Playstations it logically follows that Playstations are not popular culture! I have not seen any evidence to disprove this to be honest, I have still never seen one of these Playstation things.

We're on our second bottle of champagne in the office now!
