Friday Canon: Sugababes
Feb. 10th, 2006 03:21 pmI 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:
[Poll #670562]

Date: 2006-02-10 06:33 pm (UTC)Of the four/five listed tracks I've heard (a couple are slashed together, like Kirk and Spock), I cheerfully would click "Freak Like Me" and "Round and Round," I would give a half click to "Stronger/Angels" (finding Kirk stronger than Spock in this instance), and would only click "Ugly" if offered a sum greater than $200 to do so. [I'm sure the song has a beautiful personality, however.]
Of the non-listees, "Blue" would get an enthusiastic tingle.
