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.

'It's Like That' is, overall, amazing, but what totally lifts it into GREATNESS is the outro - just after Fatman Scoop does his solo thing, Mariah without warning starts shouting along with him - she's shouting "THIS IS MY LIFE! THIS IS MY LIFE!" and he's shouting "LET'S GO NOW WHAT! LET'S GO NOW WHAT!" and it is sonically incredible.

'We Belong Together' is the best Mariah single ever though.
