Year In Pop, week #36

[piratemoggy.livejournal.com]

Hello chaps, just filling in for one more week because I am a jobless bum and freakytigger is not. Bit odd this week insofar as am including The Freaks, who seem to have previously slipped through the polling net and also I'm not convinced we haven't polled Peter, Bjorn and John before although maybe that was with a different single, since I checked back and couldn't see it.

[Poll #1053518]

Will edit in some Youtube links in a minute. :)

Girls Aloud
Elvis
The Freaks
Pavarotti
Editors
Booty Luv
P, B & J ft. her from The Concretes

I've quite enjoyed hearing 'Nessun Dorma' again to be honest.

'Sexy Hey Nonny No' has one of the best intros this year, still wish it did something different to what it does after this - something slower and funkier like an updated Mania's 'If You Need A Good Girl' would really have floated my boat.

Where is Nessun Bosha band?

I am not 'feeling' Sexy No No No but I think this is because 90% of the times I've heard it it's been sitting in the studio in my parents' French house looking at frogs and cows. Maybe I will listen to it on the way to COOLBRANDS 0708.

I didn't like it until Poptimism when suddenly I loved it, so clearly it passes the test.

I desperately wanted the intro to recur at the end, instead of a fade.

I only heard that Mania song the other day, although it must have been on my computer for ages, being the B-side to 'Looking For A Place' -I enjoyed it very much.

'Sexy Hey Nonny No': Tee hee!

And I'm with you on the intro - it's a bit of a shame that no more is made of it than what's there, but I'd rather they left me wanting more than completely bled the idea dry, I s'pose. Still a great song, any which way.
