2011 In Pop: FEBRUARY

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

Cor, plenty of chart action this February! Get stuck into this month's tick fest underneath the cut...

[Poll #1711338]

*The Official Charts Company SCORN her dollar sign!
**Charming.
***Sauce!
****POLITICS, y'know.

January's poll saw plenty of love for Adele and Martin Solveig, whereas it seems the Glee Cast have become totally Toxic, o-ho. It also seems that the Diddy Dirty Money album comes highly recommended by you lot - I can now add my voice to the throng despite not least because of the large amounts of ride cymbal on Last Train To Paris remind me of the first DJ Shadow album! Blimey!

Pls defend your Enrique tick!

Enrique is AMAZING! Whenever I think about it I laugh and laugh and laugh.

It is best heard along with the video, which is poised so precisely on a line between astonishing hubris and self-parody that you keep expecting Enrique to wink at the screen or something.

IT IS AMAZING.

No, I thought it was a bit tinny and rub when I first heard it but it's incredibly catchy and I've found myself wandering around singing it quite a lot. Also, Enrique takes a childish joy in swearing that I immensely approve of, especially combined with his usual heartfelt style.

I think my problem might be that I've only heard the radio edit, "Tonight I'm LOVING You" which is UBER TOOTHLESS :( :(

(I am also sad that I have deleted my Enrique Being Emo icon)

Yeah, the swears make it.

It is simply wonderful how it explodes the whole "latin lover" Enrique-mystique that he has traded in so heavily his whole career and brings it straight down to earth with a bathetic bump.

Oh yes, there's no point in that. It is, as no one has said outside of a Belgian prawn studio, all about the fvcking.
