Another Year In Pop: 7

Dudes we've totally got a new number one! Welsh lass Duffy has booted off Basshunter into the murky depths of number three. But is she any good at all?

NB Tickers should bear in mind that the Utah Saints track is a new remix, 'Something Good '08'.

H2O f. Platnum "What's It Gonna Be": Doesn't have the ache that chopped-up and screwed Jodie gave to "Heartbroken," which is the only real comparison I can make, sorry if it's rather obvious of me to make it. While this woman is chopped and daft, which is interesting in itself though not as poignant. But the pogostick-cum-jackhammer bass lifts and twists this just the way we want. The class of today's class. Tick.

Paramore "Misery Business": Well, I don't have a crush on "crushcrushcrush" much less this, and I'm not sure why I have such trouble connecting, since this is good right there in-your-face Garbage-Avril bratsplat. Maybe this is too connect-the-dots? But I don't see why it's eliciting such antagonism in the Township Of Ism That Pops, either, and this gets an unhesitant tick. "Crushcrushcrush" would get a more enthusiastic one.
