Happy New Year! Welcome to a nation with three Mika songs in its Top 40!

*officially a 2007 hit.]

(Because I still don't have home interwobs I haven't had the time to properly go through the 2007 lists - it may happen this weekend though!)

does ANYONE think Booty Luv are exciting? I mean they're not horrendous but at the Pjustice prize the consensus was "6/10 all round, well done ladies, next please". I'm kind of impressed that they've managed to build a career out of what they do though.

I'm not sure they're "exciting" but they are fun. I bought their album in the week of release and have no regrets about the whole thing; it's not unmitigated genius but it's one of those things that's good for listening to when you're drunk/about to go out/desperately trying to finish a three-day-late essay or something.

YES. They look like they're having a brilliant time! I would like to be in Booty Luv (as opposed to say, Girls Aloud/Sugababes, who have to look SERIOUS and POUT quite a lot of the time).

Possibly that is the appeal- they look like totally normal people, in a way Girls Aloud don't (they are much scarier than normal people) whose hairbrush karaoke got released by accident or something.
