Yet another year in pop, Week 6

Hopefully Kat or anyone isn't doing this simultaneously, needed something to do whilst waiting to go to job centre. Might be a bit off because the official charts company hasn't updated yet so had to comb through the bbc chart instead.

[Poll #1346242]

Possibly I should have added this as a secondary poll question but when, if ever, did you last listen to the Chart Show, poptimists? I heard half of it last night, which is the most in about four years.

Well, I've somehow managed to hear the full-length version recently anyway.

I like her dreamy, impassioned pale vulnerability, reminds me of the fetching Sadie Ama. I think a bassline version would be even better, since I fall for the whole contrast between bass aggression and a singer's drifting poignancy.

When I interviewed Crazy Cousinz at their studio, I bumped into Sadie Ama's sister Shola outside, who was waiting for Sadie to finish recording some vox for them.

Anyway the original 'Do You Mind' (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YuIAB48oKI) WAS a bassline track - the Crazy Cousinz mix was the one that blew up though, and I way prefer it. (Paleface is one half of Crazy Cousinz, and by himself I think he's done more bassline stuff; his younger cousin Flukes did the remix, and together as CC they do funky house.)
