poptimistsLast week's journey back into the murky origins of the UK singles chart saw a clear win for Lita Roza's tribute to canine consumerism. 'How Much Is That Doggie In The Window' needed a mere 7 ticks to claim the crown of 1952/3. That's that out of the way! This week we have the year of battles: Blur v Oasis, Robson v Jerome, Coolio v Michelle Pfieffer. It's 1995!

Date: 2007-03-27 12:55 pm (UTC)People tend to confuse "better than usual" with "any good at all" re 'Fairground'.
I was never so disappointed in Steffi Graf as when I found out she was going out with M Hucknall.

Date: 2007-03-27 12:51 pm (UTC)I love 'Lifted', but especially 'Ocean Drive'.
Realising that 'Fairground' was actually good was a key step on the round to poptimism for me.

Date: 2007-03-27 01:12 pm (UTC)But what about CELINE? COME ON POPTIMISTS - how can you say you like megaballads and not be ticking this immense Wailosaurus?
Re: This is SEEE-REEY-US
Date: 2007-03-27 01:22 pm (UTC)Then again I think everything on this is good to the extent that both Robson and Jerome get ticks.

Date: 2007-03-27 03:58 pm (UTC)We had a kind of music snobbery thing going on with them in the school playground - me and this kid called Stephen decided we were better than the others, 'cos we both had the import version of the album. It was cooler because it had more swear words on it, and a big sticker on the cassette case saying HMV IMPORT. Though Stephen wore an Outhere Brothers t-shirt one mufti day, which obviously made him much cooler than me anyway.
