A Year In Pop: 28

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

A light-ish week with a few well-known names.

Last week's poll - http://community.livejournal.com/poptimists/406271.html - got very very low tickage. Now, it wasn't a very inspiring selection but do pop back and have a look at it if only to tick the "not heard" box! The, ahem, delicately calibrated orgafun ranking system is in danger of being thrown out of wack.

[Poll #1022266]

There's another 20 minutes or so to get yr tick on in the Pop Open love vote, too. I have a terrible feeling it might be a draw as it stands.

Their singles were terrible and are still terrible. Ready To Go might have been OK if it weren't for Saffron's awful voice, but Drop Dead Gorgeous is just plain cr4p.

You are 16,000 types of wrong on this. Saffron's voice isn't awful, it is LOUD AND UNSUBTLE, which is exactly the sort of thing that 1996 was all about.
