I've been thinking for a while, and I've decided that I might stop doing this blog. I don't think it's anything to do with me "losing my pop" (because really, I still have it), but I haven't been into it for a while. It's become more of a chore than something fun to do, and so my posts have gradually become less frequent, and I don't feel like I have anything witty or Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1079370543263953442004-03-15T17:09:00.000Z2004-03-15T17:11:24.466Z24 hours!

You may remember Michelle "No surname because it has the word "anus" in it" singing The Meaning Of Love on the final of Pop Idol. You don't? She was wearing that really horrible dress. You remember the dress but not the song? Well, that hardly surprises me. Because it's another ballad, and that's about all there is to it - it's just a really boring song.

Last year, Jessica lost her pop. Earlier this year (or was it last year?), Michael lost his too. Luckily, they both got their pop back again, but I think I might have lost mine now. Well, it's odd - I still like listening to pop, but enthusiasm for writing about it has waned somewhat.

2004 is set to be ex-S Clubber-tastic filmswise, with both Hannah and Rachel making appearances in films. First up is Hannah, who's starring as Emily in Agent Cody Banks 2:Destination London, opposite Frankie Muniz out of Malcolm in the Middle.

Surprisingly enough, it's right here. When Hanson released MMMBop, I was a huge fan. How could I not be? Middle Of Nowhere was a brilliant album, and MMMBop itself was nothing short of a masterpiece. I loved Snowed In too; I play it every Christmas.
But then Hanson disappeared, and I barely thought of them again. I occassionally revisited Middle Of Nowhere and Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1077644474722444332004-02-24T17:41:00.000Z2004-02-24T17:43:15.670ZOops!

Yes, your eyes do not deceive you - this post is about something so exciting it deserves two exclamation marks.
I have just received an e-mail from Girls Aloud (although, obviously not from the Girls themselves) and they say two things:
1. The second album is coming along very well AND the almighty Brian Higgins is working on it!
2. They're planning on doing some gigs soon!

Well, frankly I will never know, because I don't plan on ever listening to it, unless I really want to confirm my suspicions. But it probably is. Out of fourteen songs, fourteen songs are ballads. Fourteen! So it's probably like Westlife, but sung by one fat lady rather than five not-very-slim men, but even worse.

People are stupid. FACT. They go out and buy Who's David, which doesn't even have a question mark, and they don't go out and buy Cry by the lovely Alex. The result of this is that Busted are at no.1 in the midweeks (quelle surprise) and Alex is at the very disappointing no.11.

Buy Cry tomorrow! I suggest you go for the "mini" CD because it's cheaper and has a new b-side. Because if you don't buy Cry, Busted will be no.1, and we all know how much of a tragedy that will be.

For a start, when you merge their names, you get an unpronouncable mess, unlike Samneric (from Lord of the Flies) or Handclaire. So that's a bit shit. Secondly - they're bloody everywhere!

Tons of people are finding my blog after searching for the lyrics to Insania by Peter Andre. I have to say, they're not exactly the most difficult lyrics to remember! They go something like this:

This is the Blazin' Squad. They're rubbish, aren't they? That's what all normal people with anything resembling taste think.

Their album arrived this morning and I love it! On first listen I was a bit unsure, but that's only because for the first listen I'm too busy reading the lyrics to really get into the music. But then I listened again and it rules! My favourite is Music Is The Victim because it's just so fun and is the sort of thing that you can't not dance and sing along to.

Their single, Run, is very boring and Coldplay-ish, so I was all prepared to not like them very much at all, but I hadn't counted on them covering Crazy In Love by Beyoncé!

The Scissor Sisters' album is currently winging its way towards me, for I have just ordered it off Amazon. I downloaded three songs off it, but annoyingly they're loops. Still, Music Is The Victim sounds fucking ace - "I left my heart in San Francisco.... blah blah blah mother fucking disco"!

I'm really sorry for abandoning my blog somewhat, but I blame pop for being so dull at the moment. So there. Anyway, here is a post about b-sides, because some are ace, but all are criminally overlooked.
1. Cry - Will Young

Seeing as the rest of pop seems to be stagnating somewhat (why the fuck is Michelle still no.1?), I may as well talk about the band commonly known as Busted Juniors.
I have to say, 5 Colours In Her Hair isn't bad! And it doesn't really sound that much like Busted either, which is obviously a good thing.

Unlike some popstars who are rubbish gays *cough*Will*cough*, Alex isn't! In her new video for Cry, there's a girl, with meaningful camra shots and wistful looks! And of course in Over Conscious she actually sings about a girl, which is ace.
Will Will ever stop being a rubbish gay? I know he doesn't sing about girls in Friday's Child, but that's still very different to actuallyJuliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1074362336157138982004-01-17T17:58:00.000Z2004-01-17T18:00:19.513ZForthcoming releases!
I know that while I've been finding my feet with my LJ I've sort of abandoned my blog a bit, so here is a nice long post to make up for it, in which I review forthcoming singles. Hurrah!
Alex Parks - Cry
Though this isn't the song I would've chosen as her next single (I think Dirty Pretty Words would have been a better choice), I do still like this song a lot. It starts Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1074356993929076522004-01-17T16:29:00.000Z2004-01-17T16:53:24.530ZRachel Stevens doesn't want a career any more.
Her next single is going to be Breathe in, Breathe Out - aka the worst song the whole album. Why, why, why? It makes no sense! She really should've released Silk, whose mightiness knows no bounds. Or, alternaively, Fools would've been a good single - it's very catchy and poppy and would probably be fairly well received. But no, BIBO it is, and into Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1073937749533672802004-01-12T20:02:00.000Z2004-01-12T20:08:10.950ZThe Brits: What load of fucking shit!
Everything about the Brits is so very wrong. For example, Will hasn't been nominated for Best Single or Best Album, Busted have been nominated for three awards, Best Pop is no longer just British, the Black Arse Peas have been nominated for several, Bedingfool is up for Best Album despite it not being originally released last year, Will isn't going to be Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1073827885824033342004-01-11T13:31:00.000Z2004-01-11T13:33:58.700ZJust in case anyone cares...

Well, obviously because it's January, and no-one releases anything decent in January, because they released it all before Christmas. Still, the point is: pop is so boring right now (give or take a few Las Vegas weddings).
Hopefully the state of pop will soon pick up again. It was pretty damn ace in 2003, and I'm not sure if it will be as good this year.

Now, anyone with half a brain could tell that Maybe was one of the best pop songs of last year, but I at least expected that it would be a one off. Luckily, it wasn't - her new single, I'll Be There is just as ace! The video rules too - it's all black and white and French.
But!
Far more exciting than that is the fact that the Spice Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1073506754462075072004-01-07T20:19:00.000Z2004-01-07T20:20:27.763ZHA!
Apparently Michelle McManus is going to sell, ooh, about a million less copies of her debut single than Will did.
And apparently only Glaswegians are buying them.
I repeat: HA!
I believe the Dumper is calling...

The lovely Jessica is now officially the acest person in the whole world, because she's informed me (and, well, everyone else who reads her ace blog) that Maroon 5 are touring. And I'm going to see them! In Birmingham! On the 16th of March!

You may remember that a while ago, upon first hearing You Freak Me Out by the mighty Aloud, I declared it "a little underwhelming". I have since then downloaded You Freak Me Out, and after many, many listens I now declare it to be ace in the extreme! It's not as "edgy"* as No Good Advice or Sound of the Underground, it's more like Some Kind Of Miracle, and it's definitely a grower.

It's 2004. Woo. I think we should all reflect on last year though, as it was rather ace.
2003: An overview
Best album: Songs About Jane by Maroon 5 (Honourable mention: Friday's Child by Will Young)
Best song title: It's Your Duty (To Shake That Booty) by Lene
Most exciting comeback: Will Young
Least exciting comeback: Dido
Lamest song with an anti-war sentiment: Stand Up Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1072971673254839212004-01-01T15:41:00.000Z2004-01-03T17:26:47.466ZI have an exclusive! An exclusive, I tell you!
Well, it may not be an actual exclusive, but I have the results of World Idol before many other places! How exciting!
Kurt, the ugly one from Norway, won. Will came 5th. Kelly was 2nd. I'm really not botherd by the result at all - Will didn't need to win World Idol to be successful, and Kurt won't be helped at all by winning, so what does it Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1072708931385818842003-12-29T14:42:00.000Z2003-12-29T14:47:04.810ZOh dear Lord.
On January 5th, the unfortunately-surnamed Mihelle McManus begins her journey into the Dumper. Only time will tell how long the journey will be, but anyone with any sense will know that it won't be very long.
I suggest we make it a short journey, for everyone's sake. It'll mean that it'll all be over quickly for Michelle and she can get on with her life, and it means we won't Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1072707392047503322003-12-29T14:16:00.000Z2003-12-29T14:28:52.950ZNo, I haven't forgotten!
I'm going to finish off my list and tell you all my top 3 singles of 2003 - how exciting! But first I'd like to point out that I've decided that no.5 should actually be Too Lost In You by the Sugababes rather than Hole In The Head, because it's actually far superior.
Anyway, let's get on with it.
3. Sweet Dreams My LA Ex - Rachel Stevens
I was a little unsure of this Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1072548079271863882003-12-27T18:01:00.000Z2003-12-27T18:32:12.936ZThe competition to find the best singer in the world.
Yes, I'm going to talk about World Idol. Bet you didn't see that coming, did you?
Overall, the show was quite entertaining, but there was only one of them that I would say had the potential to become a superstar, and that's just because I've heard Friday's Child. Let's go through all the contestants then!
Germany - Alexander
I was glad he Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1072546235102528772003-12-27T17:30:00.000Z2003-12-27T17:31:37.233ZSo that was Christmas.
I hope you had fun, because I didn't. Well, I did a little bit, but not as much as I could have done. My presents were a bit shit (although I did get lots and lots of money off my nan, which was nice) so that was a bit disappointing.
So, because I'm nice, in case your Christmas was a bit rubbish too, here's a picture of Rachel Stevens not wearing very much.

I went to see Lord of the Rings: Return of the King yesterday and what can I say? Best. Film. Ever.
Now, at this point you might be wondering where the rest of my post is. I've written it in blue, because it contains heavy spoilers for Return of the King, meaning that if you've already seen the film or if you really don't mind knowing lots of huge plot points, you canJuliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1072043159426391592003-12-21T21:45:00.000Z2003-12-21T21:50:19.983ZThe voting public screw up once again.
So, Michelle "fat" McManus is our Pop Idol. Great. Just bloody fantastic. How on earth did this happen? She's the worst pop idol ever - but luckily, she won't last very long, so we can all laugh at her when she starts to fail, and remind her of that hideous outfit she wore last night.

To my complete astonishment, Gary Jules is this year's Christmas no.1! I'm so pleased; it's the best song that's been released this week and completely deserves it - and what's more, it beat The Darkness - hurrah!

6. Fool No More - S Club 8
This was the song that made me realise that actually S Club 8 were worthy of carrying on the noble S Club name because it is, as Mr PJ once said, the best song to come out of the S Club franchise since Don't Stop Movin'. It also features lots of fluorescent clothing in the video, which has to be a good thing.

9. Innocent Eyes - Delta Goodrem
I'd never been especially taken with Delta Goodrem, but then she released Innocent Eyes and I started to like her rather a lot. The song is so acely dramatic, with a suitably dramatic video to accompany it.
8. Mad World - Gary Jules

12. Move your Feet - Junior Senior
Such an fun song! It's so catchy and great to dance and sing along to - fabulous stuff! I actually got a bit sick of it when it was released, because it was so overplayed, but I am now re-discovering my love for it. It's just one of those songs that you can't help but love, it really puts a huge smile on your face.

Mark and Michelle are in the Pop Idol Final! Mark and Michelle! I can't believe it, I really can't. It's insane. Mark and Michelle! If someone had told me in the first Final 12 week that they would be in the final, I would not have believed them.

Tonight it's the penultimate show of Pop Idol, and here at the Escargot Cafe Towers, we're getting rather excited! There are but three contestants left: Michelle, Sam and Mark.
If Michelle wins, it would be a fucking disaster. She's just so terrible in every single way!

Girls Aloud performed their new single You Freak Me Out on CD:UK today, but I have to say, apart from the "Woo!"s, it was a little underwhelming. It was a bit like Some Kind Of Miracle, but not as good - it didn't have the excitement and aceness of No Good Advice or Sound of the Underground.

You may have noticed that I've decided to do a bit of festive re-decorating, in an attempt to get into the spirit of Christmas. I can't decide whether or not I like it though - I think it's a bit too green. Why couldn't the traditional Christmas colours be a bit nicer?

Today is a very sad day indeed. The lovely Ms Stevens is at the absolutely terrible, shocking and undeserved position of number 23 in the midweeks charts. How has this happened?
Funky Dory is an ace song. OK, it's not as ace as Sweet Dream My LA Ex was, but it's a good pop song. But even I, a huge fan of Rachel, admit that the album was, well, a bit rubbish.

I really should have posted this yesterday. ANYWAY.... Will is at no.1 in the singles and the album charts! How ace! What's even more ace is that Friday's Child sold 202,000 copies in the first week, which is even more than From Now On sold - quite an achievement, I think you'll agree, and one that's definitely deserved.

I went out and purchased Funky Dory by the very lovely Rachel Stevens - hurrah! And it is ace indeed, so I suggest you all go out and buy it too. You didn't bother to vote for her in Record of the Year, so buying Funky Dory should make up for that.

Who cares?Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1070732268287534992003-12-06T17:37:00.000Z2003-12-06T17:38:29.576ZAn important announcement!
Now, I know you were all planning on spending your Saturday evening ringing up to vote for the lovely Susanne on Pop Idol, but due to the travesty that was her being voted out, you can no longer do that. You could transfer your vote to one of the other contestants, but what's the point? They're all rubbish and boring and crap.* However, there is an alternative - Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1070731740870205252003-12-06T17:29:00.000Z2003-12-06T17:29:42.263ZHow worrying.
I *heart* the new Victoria Beckham video. No, not the crap one for This Groove in which she writhes a lot, the ace one for Let Your Head Go! Seriously, it's a masterpiece - she goes crazy in her bed! She rips clothes of a rail! She tries to hide from the press (or something)! She watches a TV programme of a bird that has her face!
The song itself is not terribly brilliant though. Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1070370210424764792003-12-02T13:03:00.000Z2003-12-02T13:18:53.780ZHurrah! I now own the best album to be released this year!
Yes, Amazon finally got their act together and sent me my copy of Friday's Child! Everything about the album is perfect, from the songs, to Will's voice, to the sleeve artwork.

Fucking Amazon didn't fucking send me my fucking Will CD! Fucking hell! I want it now!!! *stabs Amazon with a big pointy stick* And of course I can't just go out and buy it today from HMV and send back my Amazon one because there's no fucking money in my bank account because it's all been spent on my fucking Will CD from Amazon! *grinds Amazon into a fine dust with a comedyJuliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1070218671236040352003-11-30T18:57:00.000Z2003-11-30T18:59:20.343ZShane's WILL'S our man!
He's only gone and bloody got to no.1!! Despite all the problems with re-stocking the shops, he still managed to get to no.1! I was completely convinced that he wouldn't, so needless to say, I am a very happy bunny right now. I even danced madly around my room to Shane Richie, I was so happy. Will is officially my favourite popstar in the whole wide world.

In case you'd forgotten, Will Young's new album, Friday's Child, is out tomorrow. That's Monday 1st December, people.
See, even the album cover's ace.
You must buy this CD! It's going to be the acest thing in the whole world, ever.
You can buy it from Amazon here.
You can buy it from HMV here.
You can buy it from CD-wow here.

Lovely Susanne has been voted off Pop Idol! What a fucking travesty! And especially when she was so good last night. *sob*
I can't believe the final four is so amazingly dire! First up we have Chris, who I used to quite like, but he irritates me a bit now, and he seems to be getting gradually worse at singing. And then we have revolting Michelle, with the Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1070191053893064132003-11-30T11:17:00.000Z2003-11-30T11:18:29.466ZWell, I have new comment boxes...
Hopefully Haloscan won't be evil and tell me that I need to pay. But I've lost all my old comments... I feel vaguely sad about that.

Is there any way that I can become really good at French listening exams by tomorrow? Any illegal drugs I can take that will stimulate my mind and make me fluent in a foreign language? Maybe hypnosis would work?

It's so random that even Sam might not know where it's from. Hurrah for randomness!
In another news, lovely Susanne is rumoured to be singing Cry Me A River on Pop Idol next week (presumably not the Justin Timberlake song). Is this a good thing or not?Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1069868386557733892003-11-26T17:39:00.000Z2003-11-26T17:42:44.996ZI was very naughty today.
I discovered that Will Young's new album, Friday's Child, is available for download on websites that I won't mention. And, in a moment of weakness, I downloaded some of it. But only one song! So I wasn't as weak as I could have been. I decided that downloading Love The One You're With wasn't really cheating, because it's a cover, and so I already knew how it went, and Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1069779205731970452003-11-25T16:53:00.000Z2003-11-25T16:55:55.530ZLines! Pink Lines!
I'm trying to brighten up the layout of my blog (yes, I know I should be revising for my mocks!), so I've added some funky pink lines to the sidebar. Hurrah! But I might decide they look crap soon, so they may not stay there forever.
Also!
Will is no.1 in the midweeks - hurrah! And Alex's album is at no.4, which is pretty damn good too. Again, hurrah!Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1069428915325875692003-11-21T15:35:00.000Z2003-11-21T15:35:41.826ZOoh! Exciting news!
From the complete lack of reviews, it seems that not many people were particularly interested in my fanfic, but still, I have fanfic news for you all! I was struck by sudden inspiration, and have decided to write Part II of In The Dark! Wow! Excitement!
Anyway, please please please review it if you've read it, it would mean a lot to me! It really would - I'm sad like that.Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1069104109922820062003-11-17T21:21:00.000Z2003-11-17T21:22:12.796Z... and it's here!
It's taken me a long time, but I've finally typed up my second fanfic. Hurrah! Please, please review it, I will be eternally grateful. Anyway, without further ado, I give you...
In The Dark
My mocks are coming up very soon, so I'm going to be too busy revising to update my blog in the next few weeks, so I expect to return fresh from exams to lots of comments and emails aboutJuliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1069015746135215272003-11-16T20:49:00.000Z2003-11-16T20:49:27.640ZHow exciting!
I'm going to be putting up my Harry Potter fanfic soon - tomorrow if I can get it typed up by then. Hurrah! I'm sort of excited and nervous at the same time.
I think this one is better than my Alex/Carolynne one (but you should still read that). Tis written in the third person, but it changes viewpoints as the story progresses - how exciting! And I will reveal now that the title Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1068980598327654262003-11-16T11:03:00.000Z2003-11-16T11:09:36.670ZOh no! Disaster!
Obviously Susanne's "not a lesbian" claims have put the voting public off, because she was in the bottom two last night! Okay, okay, so she was pretty dreadful too, but that's not the point! She's still the acest person in the competition. Hopefully she'll be able to find a Beatles song that she can do well - any ideas people?
And so, we say goodbye to Andy Krazy Wanbker. *sob*Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1068913581135665812003-11-15T16:26:00.000Z2003-11-15T16:27:30.640ZAnd you thought Where Is The Love was bad!
Unfortunately, the Black Arse Peas don't seem to be content with being a one hit wonder. Oh no, they have to go and release another song! For some bizarre reason, it seems quite popular too, which frankly baffles me. It's called Shut Up, and not only is it worse than Where Is The Love, it's also nearly as bad as Kelly Osbourne's song of the same name.

I really can't be botherd to go into detail about these things, so I will be brief!
- How hot does Rachel look in her new video?
- How ace were Girls Aloud on CD:UK today? Nicola! Side ponytail! Cheryl! Short hair again! Dancers! Skipping Ropes!
- Will is performing Love The One You With on CD:UK soon! Hurrah!
- Vote for Susanne on Pop Idol tonight, even if she's crap!

How the fuck do I change my archive templates so they alway show my current sidebar rather than the sidebar they had at the time? Because, you may have noticed that in some of the early archives, you can't read the whole thing because it stops when the sidebar stops. It's very annoying, and if anyone knows how to rectify this,Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1068646184130735482003-11-12T13:59:00.000Z2003-11-12T14:41:49.366ZOh, the conflicting loyalties!
Next week, much crapness will ensue, because Girls Aloud and Alex Parks are both releasing singles, and frankly, I don't know which one I like best. I've been listening to Maybe That's What It Takes a lot recently, and I just keep *heart*ing it more and more, but then again, the same can be said of Jump. MTWIT is ace and lovely and makes me go all emotional like a Juliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06412552883209364471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561987.post-1068643130610815092003-11-12T13:18:00.000Z2003-11-12T13:18:47.976ZThank the lord!
It turns out that Blogger hasn't gone shit at all, it's just that previously I was using a crap old computer. Now I am finally back on a decent XP computer, Blogger is normal and as ace as ever.
