AYIP Supplement May 2008

Record crop again in May – 21 lowhitters, not including Crowded House's "Fall at Your Feet" which somehow got one week at #75 seventeen years after its first chart run (well even this week's #1 is three chartyears old innit?).

But then, it was a month of five Saturdays.

You probably know the drill by now; check out the vids if you want, ponder a bit, and tick what you deem tickworthy. Hurrah for depth!

[Poll #1203958]

*NOTE: OK this is confusing. Wikipedia sez this is the song from the musical Wicked, but who in the hell this "Kristen" is is still unresolved. To make up for the lack of the actual-single version, here's a Tony Awards performance, sung by one Idina Menzel along with a confusingly named Kristin.

Regarding April, The Lex can rejoice a bit about current scores for once – CASSIE is in the lead, alone above 50%, though not far ahead of Portishead, Kylie and Jordin & Chris (REËNTERING at 74 this week btw).

The bit about the macarana?

Yes, that bit is awful. Actually basically all of it is awful apart from the beginning bit and the bits where the beginning bit happens again. I feel like I maybe ought to like the other bits but they seem like a crap version of 'Send Me On My Way' by Rusted Root if it was covered by Architecture In Helsinki.
