A Year In Pop: 14

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

After last week's total damp squib (lowest polling numbers ever, too) - this is more like it. Too much more like it you might say with 12!!! new entries as the charts have a big old spring clean. At least 3 tracks here which have had their own poptimists thread! GET TICKING!

[Poll #963576]

This reminds me but the very last post I wrote on my dead and almost certainly never coming back blog was a review of the Mika album. It was actually more evil, hateful and critical than anything I've read anywhere else. I'm kind of glad it's not readable now. I meant to show it to people (I said "Grace Kelly" was the "most narratively and intellectually vacant piece of pestilential junk to ever go Top Ten". And it is.). But "Love Today" is certainly the least punchable song on it apart from "Relax". Still rub though. I like "Stop Me" and Tashbed quite a bit. If it were 1987 more people would have ticked Erasure, and rightly so.
