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 like Frank K's idea of doing the Pazz and Jopp singles cos it's ahem interrogating a different thing i.e. how critical acclaim a) changes b) fares over time.
