The History of Pop part 2 aka When You Kiss The Dames And You Don't Ask Their Names

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Pop science takes its second faltering step onwards to Now II - still no pig on the cover, but this is plainly one of the best records ever. Just how good will be decided by YOU as you tick all the songs that you LIKE. Comments, arguments and 'who the marlowe were Julia and Company?' in the comments box.

As for Now 1, a four-way tie leads us to a tie breaker (at the bottom of this poll) - Heaven 17 vs Bonnie Tyler vs The Cure vs Human League BLIMEY. When Poptimism eventually returns we may have a special night where we play the BEST TRACK from EVERY Now album, so choose wisely.

The WORST songs on Now 1, proven by science, are UB40's "Please Don't Make Me Cry" and Limahl's "Only For Love". Poor old Limahl.
