The History Of Pop Part 62 aka Thanks to you now I get what I want

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Now 62 brings us almost up to date - when we started the Now polls this was the most current Now album available. Since then there have been two more, which we'll deal with next week, and then that's yer lot. Now 62 has plenty of meat on it, unlike the last one, which has yielded our lowest-rating winner ever, with only 60% tickys. And that winner is...either Gorillaz or Rachel Stevens. When I did this poll I didn't know it was a draw, though, so the tie-breaker question will be on a separate poll, probably bunged on the end of a POPFITE. Sorry about that!

It's the verse which I find disappointing - it goes on a bit to no particular purpose. And it's the kind of structurefuckery which Xeno did to far better effect on 'The Show'.

Really though, the ARRANGEMENT! Ghastly.

Oh no, the verse is great. The vocals get more and more urgent sounding as it goes on, really building up the tension towards the bridge

urgent, yes, urgently looking for a tune to sing cos there ain't one in the verse.

I love The Show but Biology is it's superior in every respect. In fact it's the best Girls Aloud single of all - sleekly odd, a killer bridge and with that incredible "oooooo-oooh" behind the chorus. Beats even Love Machine, for me.
