The History Of Pop Part 61 aka Nim Nim Nim Nim

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

RIGHT. Let's get this one over with. Now 61 is not a very good Now album. The impression of badness is enhanced by Now's sudden decision to move all the great pop tracks to the arse end of disc 2, part of the general loss of faith in pop that was sweeping the blogosphere world in 2005, at least before this very community came along to SORT IT OUT.

Gwen Stefani is your winner on Now 60, by the way.

Another interesting thing about this Now - almost no boshin chart dance. Was there even any?

Bodyrockers? Deep Dish?

UGH

This Bodyrockers one is ok. Can't say the same for Deep Dish though.

I guess all the dancebosh types were too busy going "oooo wow British guitar bands and singer/songwriters are doing really well again, lets NOT BOTHER".

the terrible decline of Audio Bullys begins here after some excellent material on their first album. i listened to the follow-up on itunes and it's atrocious for the most part.

Bodyrockers = SO AWFUL AND SLEAZY. It's his voice, it slimes around the song and up your back and yuck yuck yuck.

not good sleaze.

my three worst songs of 2005 are on this NOW! (Rhyming Slang Blunt, Oasis, Bodyrockers)
