Another Year In Pop: 36

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

For once there's a reasonable number of new entries this week, phew. Who'd have thought we'd be nostalgic for the turbulent charts of the early 2000s? But are any of these fresh new hits good enough to quench the pop thirst we developed over the summer drought?

[Poll #1255714]
Rest of chart news: Katy Perry's still at number one, and look - what's this? Paper Planes has popped up at no.69! About blimmin' time if you ask me.

Congratulations are also in order to THE TING TINGS who won this year's Lex 20p Indie Prize by a clear margin of 5 whole votes. Why not go and watch their most recent video? I think it's pretty good!

Oh, and I'm still totally ambivalent about the Ting Tings, though I'm thinking that if I was willing to tick the ambivalent-worthy GCH track, I oughta go back an tick all the Ting Tings. At least Katie doesn't have Travis's horribly weak, pedantic slowness. But then Katie's exuberance makes her vastly more noticeable. I'm still not sure.
