Another Year In Pop: 8

Not an awful lot going on this week - Duffy's still at the top and the highest new entry is at 23. But I guess there must be people in the UK who haven't managed to buy the 'Valerie' single yet in the last EIGHT MONTHS, mustn't there?

4 out of 5 ticks! Not a bad week. Chris B and Craig D were marginal ticks, though; Craig gets one mainly because I felt sorry for him after Terry Wogan started taking the piss out of his diction on this song.

The Yael thing seems to be the epitome of what The Lex was moaning about on the Duffy threads last week.

Yes to the Lex moan, and this song really does make the connection between singer-songwriter and neo-jazz-soul (hence making Lex's Tori-Bjork-Courtney-PJ references not as irrelevant as some commentators claimed).
