The Doom That Came To poptimists

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

On the fearful night of December 8
Poptimism at the Polar Bear was no longer a debate

Yes, the Poptimism club is now officially homeless as the new management of the Poley Bear are putting on their OWN nights and want no more to do with our Blossom Hill-swilling hordes. A shame, but we're looking for a new venue and in the meantime you can catch us playing guerilla gigs putting records on jukeboxes around London instead.

MEANWHILE one last tribute to Lennon, J - you've read the lyrics, now hear the song:

The Cranberries - I Just Shot John Lennon

It is really very bad. (And sounds a bit like a Morrissey B-Side).

I know I'm behind on the advent calendar, wait until lunchtime for that, but first of all here's today's Winner Stays On. GURLS ALOUD are still the champions of pop with 7.62 for "Biology" against Vitalic's 6.95 (this is all going onto a big GRAPH, dont you worry). In reality the scores are a little closer because The Lex wasn't able to get his votes in, but GA still win it. Can they come through a third bout, this time against Kelly Clarkson, darling of the pop blogosphere (US version)? As usual, nominees for future WIZZOs in the comments, and hopefully more recent ones - yes, C Frog comin' up nearer the magical Wobs Day.

Girls Aloud - Biology
Kelly Clarkson - Since U Been Gone

[Poll #630231]

Ho for orgafun! (I'm a)

Thanks for the YSI of the Kelly C, Tom. Good to finally hear it. I cannot believe what all the fuss is about on that one tho' - it's just an Avril song as sung by tATu innit.

Thanks also for the Cranberries mp3 - gobsmacking.
