The History Of Jop Part 15 aka In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

If it's Thursday, it must be 1994! The grip of alt.rock and hip-hop - mostly alt.rock - on the Pazz and Jop poll is close to total, and Anglophiles aren't carrying much weight. This does mean that we've got a lot of tracks to rate that never came near a Now album, though!

NINE ticks out of 27 songs.

"Girls and Boys" was also one of those moments for me, although I thought it was some crazy new Eno single the first time I heard it.

Although I eventually came around to the album, I'm not sure I would ever have cared about Blur were it not for that song.
