The Friday Canon: PULP

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

No, I can't believe we haven't done them yet either. With just 12 UK Top 40 hits, you get FOUR ticks below. However because I'm feeling generous, for one! canon! only! you are allowed an EXTRA text-box vote for a song that's missing - if a song gets enough votes it will be included in the canon proper.

If you called your dad he could stop it all

We were talking about Common People on my own LJ yesterday (flocked out of habit - I can take the lock off I think). There's some interesting stuff there from koganbot and others.

Anyway it just occurred to me that Cocker's logic in this line was also my logic when I was an angry young schoolboy getting annoyed at compulsory Christianity: Jesus was a phoney who cd never live like common people.

"there's some interesting but ignorant stuff from koganbot"

I wonder if it's possible for someone like me to really in my gut comprehend the lived experience of being a Pulp fan.
