PopFite BlurbFite

OK barring any late surges it would appear that the final eight are as follows. I've taken the list of people who have asked to do blurbs for survivors (or for non-specifics) and assigned them where appropriate - they've all got something they voted for. If they could email freakytrigger@gmail.com with a 50-word explanation of why their track should WIN WIN WIN by lunchtime tomorrow, that would be amazing.

"All The Things She Said" - [livejournal.com profile] dubdobdee
"Always On My Mind" - [livejournal.com profile] byebyepride
"Toxic" - [livejournal.com profile] katstevens
"...Baby One More Time" - [livejournal.com profile] anthonyeaston
"Running Up That Hill" - [livejournal.com profile] alexmacpherson
"Can't Get You Out Of My Head" - STILL TO BE CLAIMED!
"Pump Up The Volume" - [livejournal.com profile] stevem78
"Common People" - [livejournal.com profile] braisedbywolves

...and if "Love Machine" manages to beat Kate Bush (it's the closest fite though still not very close), [livejournal.com profile] juror8 has it.

Frank did blurbs for all these, I think, so you can check them on the old thread for inspiration.

Haha between Frank, Robin Carmody and a certain chart-topping review I should have no shortage of "inspiration".

VOTE FOR LOVE MACHINE! VOTE FOR LOVE MACHINE! VOTE FOR LOVE MACHINE!

WHY IN FIVE WORDS: It isn't by Kate Bush.

Want me to write the blurb for Kylie? When would I have to write it by? What are the criteria for blurb-writing?
