The History Of Jop Part 13 aka It's fun to lose and to pretend

Back after a short absence it's the Pazz and Jop poll for 1991 - a particular blockbuster of a poll this with TEN ticks to be shared between 28 singles (would have been 29 but for C&C Music Factory cropping up last year too).

There's a fair bit of ground to cover in the comments boxes, I'm thinking!


[Poll #845917]


1990: Time For The (Poptimist) Guru

1. Groove Is In The Heart (48 votes)
2. Vogue (42)
3. Nothing Compares 2 U (34)
4. Gonna Make You Sweat (28)
5. Been Caught Stealin (26)
6. Justify My Love (25)
7. Hold On (24)
8. Kool Thing (21)
9. Epic (19)
10=. Welcome To The Terrordome (18)
10=. 911 Is A Joke (18)

Note very rapid drop off in vote totals from 1-3 down.

'move any mountain' was the first song i played over and over again to try and write down the right lyrics

There's an excellent meme! Mine was It's The End Of The World As We Know It.

for some mental 11 year old me reason, i slowed down the tape of Kim Wilde's "chequered love" to count the beeps/beats before the song started proper.
