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

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

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!

L. Allen = from London -- she is 'urban'
O. Boys inc. LADY SOV -- they are 'urban'
N. Furtada0 : is urban AND IN THE LEAD!
Gnarls B: is (RUB) and urban AND DOING PRETTY WELL!

If you're not careful I'll go back and tick the Zutons because the lady trumpeter is Hot.
