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

[Poll #1117595]

*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!)

Basshunter- Have not heard this, take it that I shouldn't bother.

Britney- Hurrah this is my favourite song off her album, possibly my favourite thing she's ever done. I know it'll probably date rather badly but nom nom nom, from the chain-clinks to the synthesised sex-sighs, to the command-question at the heart of it all ('you want a piece of me' or 'you want a piece of me?' the question mark seems to disappear and reappear at will, entirely appropriately) to the fact it sounds like an advert. There's also a synth noise in there somewhere that I find extremely appealling but can't quite think how to describe.

Horribly appropriate, of course, too. :(

Mika- I like this one a lot actually. The Cutting Crew sample is ace and it sounds nicely wintry.

Booty Luv- the bassline on this is ace. I'm not totally sure why I like Booty Luv so much but there it is.

You most likely have heard the Basshunter but with different words in a different language, as it was part of the Chart Championship Series and won byebyepride three points on the final day, saving him from relegation. Other version is better than this new one in Engrish, but this is pretty enough.
