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.

But the mundanity in 'Dreamer' has a really specific point, because Hilarity's addressing her stalker, someone prying into her everyday life, so she's saying "HERE IT IS NOW GO AWAY". With Nash you're just like, you have spots. And? So? Why on earth should I care? Plus, Nash acts very stage school precocious, which isn't a bad thing in itself, but most pop stars who act like that have some sort of really obvious talent or presence, whereas you've got Nash sitting there expecting applause for literally NOTHING.
