A Year In Pop: 21

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

This week's hitses! It is getting rly difficult to remember which I have or haven't done. Is this REALLY the first appearance for that Twang record? Everyhit seems to agree with me about this week's though.

[Poll #993229]

Last week's was a record-breaker for ticks, I hope some of the tickers will stick around.

Dizzee a cop-show mess, a cliché, still has power in it, borderline tick, only thing that prevents me from joining umlaut in the DON'T LIKE ANY party.

And the losers are:
--Pigeon: Passive-aggressively ordinary, with a touch of passive-aggressive "Most lads lead a life of quiet befuddlement" misfitness to it, which is just as ordinary. Not the worst of its type this week, actually.
--R. Kelly: Song of the year! (Or so it's been touted by many sincere types who otherwise tend to dislike what I dislike.) The guy has always sounded disengaged and blah to me, albeit in a masterful and arrogant way. Neither his least boring nor his most boring track.
--Kaiser Chiefs: "Ruby" haters take note: This is so much worse than "Ruby." Buzzcocks play Little Eva if Little Eva had a boring song and the Buzzcocks were comatose in the corner.
--Twang: See the Pidge.
--Revs: I deleted this from my computer a week ago and have forgotten what it sounds like. I am not being conscientious, am I?
