The History Of Pop Part 64 aka Make you work hard make you spend hard

And NOW, the end is near. We were rating some of these songs only LAST WEEK on Stevem's monthly pop polls, so apologies for the necessary duplication. The long heatwave of June/July 2006 - how long ago it seems eh?

Now 63 was won by Gorillaz, notching up their second poll winner with "Dirty Harry" on the frankly apalling score of 55% tickies - this would have put it in 8th place on the first Now poll. Make of that what you will.


[Poll #789802]


TH-TH-THAT'S ALL FOLKS!

I guess I've been listening to a lot less pop radio in the last year or so: don't know why. But the tunes I do know off the last couple of NOWs, I haven't much liked. I'm quite prepared to believe this is to do with me and not to do with the 'state of pop' or anything. But fuck it, I'm too busy listening to Rust Never Sleeps to care.
