poptimistsAnother experimental format, but of course. Check back every half hour as I count up to the WINNAH. 19 voters in total - about as much as for the Pop World Cup later rounds. I am hoping for higher totals in the Pop Open! But my workload caught up with my marketing (and reviewing!) skills so this was more of an epilogue than a climax to the League.
In fourth place...: TRACK 4: M2M - "Our Song", chosen by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
koganbot: 2 1st place votes, 4 2nd place votes. In his email when he submitted the song Frank mentioned that he'd sent it to a lot of people before, and indeed this was the only one I even theoretically knew.
In third place...: Track 1: DESTRA - "Independent Ladies", chosen byalexmacpherson: 4 1st place votes, 5 2nd place votes. A bold choice from the Lex, I thought, though this isn't as frenetic as most Soca. I was pleased to see it do well - led the field when I counted the first ten voters.
In second place...: Track 3: COOKIE CREW - "Born This Way", chosen byjeff_worrell: 6 1st place votes, 3 2nd place votes. My personal favourite of the four, keeps its infectious momentum going to the end.
In first place...: Track 2: HERBERT - "Moving Like A Train", chosen byinhibitorylinks: 6 1st place votes, 5 2nd place votes. The best individual performer in the League of Pop and so a worthy winner here, this was the most interesting and more-ish of the tracks for me, but ran out of steam (boom boom) towards the fifth minute. Even so would have got a 2nd place from me.
Well done Scott and thanks to the other three finalists.
Tomorrow you'll get five sexxxxxy traxx (ahem), anonymised and ready to vote on. If I can sort out some streaming media nonsense I will but I'll put them up as a zip too. GIRD YR LOINS.

Date: 2007-06-11 10:43 pm (UTC)I admit I was worried when I heard the calibre of the other tracks, but crazy Herbert prevailed. Lex, the singer on this is Dani Siciliano, who has released two solo albums of her own. She DOES have more than a touch of Roisin about her, doesn't she...
