Friday Canon: Sugababes

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

I can't deny it, consensus interests me: I like knowing what people like. I also like doing polls (never!!), so here's a new Poptimists 'thing', based on ILM's old POV (Pick only five) threads, which were fine but NOBODY EVER TABULATED THEM (and there wasn't a lot of discussion either).

(I would not have thought of this were it not for my getting drunk last night and forgetting to YSI the winner stays on tracks)

Here's the rules: from a list of an act's top 40 singles (UK), you pick your favourite five. No more than five, but you can pick less. That's it. What we get out of it - an idea of how the sample poptimists view the contours of a career, a list of top tracks to check out, and the opportunity to waste some of Friday afternoon talking about pop stars we like. HERE GOES:

Damn thing is COVERED in massive tunes. I've found getting into Taller v.hard. It all sounds a bit too samey.

It's covered in polite washes of synths, is what it's covered with. (which is why Three ballads > Three bangers.)

Taller is all over the place stylistically! It's the most varied SugaAlbum of them all!

Polite synth washes? Dude, seriously, I think we must be listening to different albums!

I think we are, I think you have gotten Three and Taller mixed up somehow
