A Year In Pop: 40

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

A more manageable eight new entries this week, including Aly and AJ's UK chart debut and the seventieth single off the Mika record.

[Poll #1067778]

Importantly, all previous polls remain open. Why "importantly"? Because you can GO BACK AND TICK ENRIQUE. This has been a public service announcement from the poptimists admins.

Hmm has 'Potential Breakup Song' been physically released yet? If not, HURRAH, but if so OH DEAR.

Outside the top 40 I am heartened to note MIA at No 69! Unless that's been physically released already too.

Aly & AJ and Kanye apart, the other new entries collectively plumb new depths of vileness.

Physical release is today for A&A (didn't we discuss this last week? You were banging on about Litmus Tests or summat). Dunno about M.I.A.

I thought it was but hmv.co.uk claimed it was 1 Oct (ditto 'Jimmy').

Minor indie artist achieves minor indie chart placing non-shockah.
