Another Year In Pop: 37

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

Ladies and gentlemen we have a new number one! We truly are living in exciting times when Kings Of Leon can get to the top spot. Hmmm.

Elsewhere, Miley is slowly sneaking up towards the top 10, Skepta's Rolex Sweep enters at no.89, and Bonnie Tyler is this week's inexplicable new entry at 57 thanks to Total Eclipse Of The Heart being cheaply dubbed over that Phil Collins gorilla advert.

KoL: It's not unpleasant sounding, and it's slightly better than the worst tracks on their first album. However I like them better when they do bluesy stuff rather than Killers-y stuff. No tick.

Cliff: BLIMEY he's nicked the hook from 'Downtown' for the chorus. My boss has just pissed himself laughing at this in the office. It's dreadful obv but quite endearing. If Cliff turns out to actually be the Messiah we're all buggered, but I'm still not ticking this.

Iglu: these people's voices are VERY grating. Chorus is insubstantial and the rapping is poor. I am turning this off right now.

McFly: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA dudes you have to watch this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ySZt73Gcw4) it's hilarious. Post-apocalyptic Mad Max tastic! Actually possibly more like Tank Girl. Anyway, McFly must sing to earn some clean water. Song's ok, though I'm sure one of them just said 'fvcking' before the boogie-woogie fight sequence so I can't not tick this. Why don't more people make videos like this?

Basshunter: woez how I weep for 1995 :(

Flo & Will: Lame reworking of an ancient 80s electro hit that I can't quite identify. I am bored of Will.i.am's face.

Queen: I think I'll give thsi one a miss.

MIA: Yay! Bout time.

Sonny J: I do wonder sometimes why people sample the worst/most-annoying bits of songs when there is so much good music out there to use instead? And sometimes even in the same song? Anyway, this has been hanging around for Some Months Now and has shrunk on me even more :(

AMAZING X 10 BILLION

Anyone who has watched that video and not ticked the McFly is DOING IT WRONG.
