THE HISTORY OF POP PART 3 aka Are You So Deaf That You Cannot Hear?

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

No Music Day? NOW MUSIC DAY more like. The first two songs have been entered into the Poptimists Pop'n'Poll hall of fame and they are:

NOW 1: The Human League - Fascination
NOW 2: Frankie says RELAX.

Applause, huzzahs etc. Nena was a v.close runner up on Now 2 with Cyndi Lauper, the Smiths and some other people also doing well. Poor old SNOWY WHITE and the mysterious Julia and Company did worst of all.

Today's poll has all sorts of "they were on a NOW??" entries, and was going to be accompanied by YSIs of some 'prime cuts' from 1 & 2 but this must wait until tomorrow cos I fvcked up the YSI somehow. As ever, comments more than welcome.

I own all of these!

Because I own NOW 3 (or rather my sister does = same diff.)Therefore all of them are any good at all*. But even w/o that ownership factor, it must be said that this is a v. strong comp**, easily superior to NOWs 1 & 2.

*Note: I cannot remember how either the G.Glitter or "Susanna" goes.
**Warning note: "Dr. Mabuse" is the single edit, so doesn't have the Penderecki strings; dock a point for that.
