A Year In Pop: 8

The Kaiser Chiefs at #1, and a flutter of Fratelli action in the lower reaches of the chart - but we're all about the NEW! ENTRIES! here.

[Poll #937040]

OK, who is Mumm-Ra?

I like the Mumm-ra song. This is probably due to a general inclination to like anything called Mumm-ra due to the line in that Kimya Dawson song but it also sounds a bit like Delays crossed with McFly so that's fine by me.

Fergie song gets better every time I hear it and the bit that goes I'm glad my daddy told me so, he let his daughter know: IF YOU AINT GOT NO MONEY TAKE YOUR BROKE ASS HOME! makes me laugh every time. Albeit in an increasingly hysterical 'oh jesus you aint seen my debt' sort of way but still.

I just checked and the Junior Jack song is, as I suspected, completely rubbish. Suitable only for consumption after mass amounts of alcohol and even then, it'd be completely unnoticeable and indistinguishable from every single Shapeshifters-esque pile of dance-pseudo-latin-jazz-whatever-the-hell-it's-meant-to-be poo. :( :( :( Bring back trance immediately.
