The Historiography of Pop part 1 aka Then vs NOW.

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

While we prepare the amazing follow-up to the Now polls series (ahem), we will close the book on them with a series of pollfites to work out which of our 64 victors is actually the best.

A very simple format - just tick the song you like best in each question. Rather than do it randomly, or just 2 by 2, each fight is a winner from NOWs 1-32 against one from NOWs 33-64, giving us a chance to think about the ways pop has changed.

Due to LJ poll limitations we'll be doing this initial batch in three chunks.


[Poll #794482]


ROAR

The next 11 tomorrow.

(and yes I know I need to do the pop star poll too - the picture components in that make it less office-safe tho so I'll do it at home)

Because I am 1x big DAD (and also prefer 80s to 90s mostly), I ticked 8 thens and only 3 nows.

There are more 'classic' thens in this poll than nows - even I ticked more thens.

Although this poll is less thens v nows than thens v thens.

I feel so bad that 'My Humps' didn't get through, surely we can shuttle it through to the final by jiggerypokery.

Or maybe we can BRING IT BACK at the last minute like a BIG BROTHER EVICTEE!
