Bits of Poptimist Business

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

How orga is my fun? How? How? HERE'S HOW - a new weekly Poptimists schedule so we can, "keep it regular".

Monday: Now poll (& Poptimists charts)
Tuesday: BOSH OF THE WEEK
Wednesday: Pop World Cup!
Thursday: Now poll
Friday: Winner Stays On.

Except I won't be posting this week's bosh until I get home.

I received my first Pop World Cup submission last night - IT IS EXCELLENT! I will not prejudice results by saying whose it was though. I have not yet decided which ridiculously complex fair and user-friendly voting system to use.

Bonus poll:
[Poll #653995]

Question of thee day: are there any really good songs about how other songs or music aren't good? "I Don't Know Where It Comes From" by Ride - unspeakable. "All The Records On The Radio Are Sh1te" by Ballboy - unpalatable. "Funk Pop A Roll" by XTC - erm chalk it down to guilty pleasures. WHEREAS songs about how other songs and music are GREAT are often good! i.e. "Music" by John Miles. Maybe.

"I don't like country & western.
I don't like rock music.
I don't like, I don't like rockabilly.
- rock'n'roll in particular -
I don't like much, really, do I?
but what I do like, I love passionately"

Also, obvious but true: 'Panic'.

Yeah to both of those, well Paninaro I think is more a song about loving things than not. But "Panic" is a good example.

Another dreadful one - "Who Wants to be the Disco King?" Why do I even remember these things?

where does "boybands and another one and another one. and an. other. one" fall into this argument?
