A Year In Pop: Week Two

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

After last week's appetiser the chart gets back to feasting (on its young) - THIRTEEN new entries to rate and contemplate, we see now why Stevem's monthly polls were so huge. Possible points of interest include the BBC's "Sound of 07" Mika with the highest new entry, and nu-ravers The Klaxons getting their first proper hit. And of course download revolutionaries KOOPA.

[Poll #908393]

I have downloaded all of these and will give them an listen and report in the comments thread. But don't take my word for it!

*Oh, forgot to include this footnote. It's hard to imagine a song that's not any good at all, especially given that I count within Any Good At All the characteristic of "expressing something terrible very well" or "expressing something terrible uncommonly poorly, hence its awful existence enriches my life." Something that was "no good at all" would be such an anomaly that its being no good at all would itself be an achievement, hence it would be good at all. So I only tick when something is positively - or even negatively - er... characterful, or something, in an interesting way.
