A Year In Pop: 7

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

A somewhat slack week for new entries this. Perhaps we could talk about something else?

[Poll #931262]

Any ideas? Actually, here's something - was anyone reading this into Snow Patrol before they were enormous - and how do they feel about the band now they are The Biggest Band In Britain?

Also, don't forget to vote in the Jop Tournament quarter-finals.

Ice Box

I must say I was very impressed with 'Ice Box' on first listen. But I'd need to hear it a few more times to explain why it's good. Perhaps we need martinskidmore to come in at this point, as I noticed yesterday the song is on his "best of '06" mixtape.

I was too - don't get me wrong, it is a very impressive song. Maybe too impressive actually, maybe that's it, I feel I can only admire at a distance rather love from the inside.

HE HAS AN ICE BOX WHERE HIS HEART USED TO BE :D

Haha suddenly it's become a bit perfect.

i don't think it's impressive enough really. it's just pleasant Timbaland by numbers, production wise. competent and confident, but maybe a bit too workmanlike/sloggish?

Hello! Yes, I love it, and have played it lots - I love the refrain particularly, and find it very chilling in exactly the way it's meant to be.
