A Year In Pop: 10

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Last week's poll has mustered a pretty disappointing 30 votes so far - well down on the usual totals. This is probably due to it featuring 12 new entries and not a single agreed-on standout: it's always good to put yr tick against a box, though, even if that box is the dispiriting HAVEN'T HEARD option.

Another nine new tracks this week, but at least the chart compilers have taken pity and slipped a famous name or two in, and a trendy indie band in at no.40.

[Poll #946429]

Meanwhile in League of Pop news: anthonyeaston is stepping down because of illness - get well soon Anthony, we'll keep a place warm for you next season.

In one of the American buyouts that is rocking sport, however, koganbot will be stepping in to take the reins.

Also, in incompetence of Tom news: there were TEN new tracks this week - the one I forgot will go in next week's poll. Don't hold yr breath though.

I still love LCD the band, '45.33' confirmed that when he's not trying to write conventional rock songs James Murphy does genius things. And they've always been great fun live.

I love 'Get Innocuous' and can tolerate one of the weepy ones ('Someone Great' I think?) - it tries too hard to be heart-tugging and doesn't quite succeed, but it's OK.

Everything else = zzzzzz and occasionally aaargh.
