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)

whenever I think of 'final countdown' I instantly recall "Gob" in 'arrested development' doing his entrance to it as he is about to make his yacht 'disappear'.

therefore 'final countdown' is quite the classic these days
