A New Decade In Pop: Week #30

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

A blippy techno record is at #1! No, me neither, but Yolanda Be Cool and D Cup don't care. Slow week though - the highest new entry today is #20.

[Poll #1597384]

Lower reaches watch: Jedward are in at #80 with their Blink 182 cover, the Mercury nominations have nudged The xx and Mumford & Sons further up into the top 100 (Laura Marling's album has jumped 82 places up) and DERE LORD "Don't Stop Believing" has been on the chart for 91 weeks :O

I thought "Airplanes" was bland when I first heard it, but the chorus has forced itself on me. Hayley's presence is all-consuming and I don't remember anything about what BOB is doing, a couple of minutes after hearing it. She makes the silly, bite-sized lyrics sound important.
