All New Thoughts of the Pops
Well, it's Friday night and we're not in the pub, so is there any better way to spend it than watching Top of the Pops? Yes, we know, there are lots, but never mind. Here's what we learnt this week.
Oh, and did we mention that we really liked the Scissor Sisters performance?
- Using the same performance of Maroon 5 from 2 weeks back isn't the best way to open an allegedly live show.
- Scissor Sisters may well be the most seriously fucking ace band... ever.
- Atomic Kitten seriously believe that people will still be interested in them when they return from their year long *ahem* 'break'.
- Stereophonics, welsh, boring, dull as shit, yadda, yadda. Who cares? We're still thinking about the fabness of Scissor Sisters. Ana had a tambourine. A tambourine! And, as everyone knows, tambourines are the 5th acest thing of all time... ever!
- Katie Melua is number one in the album charts. We didn't learn who she actually was though.
- There is no phrase more chilling in the english language than "Here's the new single by Westlife".
- In someone's strange and depraved mind, the idea of Jennifer Lopez and R. Kelly collaborating is deemed a good one. We want this person killed.
- The producers of Top of the Pops have an interesting definition of what the word pop actually means. I mean, Incubus? Jesus wept.
- Michelle McManus is still at number one. Oh for fuck's sake.
