Yet Another Year In Pop: 1

Welcome to YET ANOTHER year in pop! The UK charts were pretty dismal at times in 2008 - let's hope things pick up in 2009 and we can end the decade with a bang (though I expect it will be a while before Alex Burke is knocked off the top). So what sparkling new releases are going to rejuvenate and invigorate the virginal charts this frosty Monday morning?

[Poll #1325705]

Hmmmmm. There are barely any tracks in the top 75 that haven't been hanging around since at least November but patience, people! There's plenty of stuff scheduled for release later in the month (including a new Helen Love single? WTF???).

(Also: you have until 12noon GMT tomorrow to go back and tick any of the 2008 polls that you missed out or have changed your mind about!)

Yeah, I'm totally lazy about youtubing songs for no good reason (i.e., that don't sound like I'd probably like them). And I probably miss a lot of good songs that way. But hey, I'm old and stuck in my ways. So I guess if I haven't heard all the songs, I'll just lie and pretend I have!

Xhuxk, you realize you can go back through all the 2008 weekly polls and tick things, though they're being totaled up tomorrow at noon Greenwich Mean Time, which doesn't give you long.
