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!

If "Lithium" were my first Evanescence song, I'd probably tick it, but having heard about six or eight or ten Evanescence songs I like more (not to mention every Flyleaf song ever), I'm not going to reward it. It's almost a parody of teary classical goth - "almost a parody" being a positive tickable characteristic, but there are way more exuberantly over-the-top-of-the-moat-of-tears almost-parodies of teary classical goth.
