Q magazine this month.

While flicking through Q magazine today was browsing over the top 50 british singles of all time.

Blue monday was at No.44 if i remember correctly(didn't buy it, not a fan of that magazine) and love will tear us apart was at No.29, pretty lowly for 2 all-time classics.

well out of all the millions of records ever made by anyone,to get 2 in top 50 is fooking amazing.even though i dont agree with blue monday.

pitchfork recently did a feature called "now that's what i call new pop!" that looks at british synth pop from 78-84... the abc/human league branch of it all i suppose... anyway, there's a list of the top 40 "new pop" singles, with new order coming in at #28 with confusion and #7 with blue monday. quite a nice list (i'd never heard of the associates... i don't know how... ordered 'sulk'...)

check it: http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/features/weekly/new-pop/

oh, just so everyone knows, it really pisses me off that everytime i log in, it puts me back to the front page... very annoying. something must be done. wouldn't it be nice if it just put you on the page you were at when you found out you needed to log in? eh? reasonable? logical? doable? is that a word? tell me!

Fuck Q (say it quickly!)

I thought there would be a decent amount of space devoted to this but it is covered on 2 pages only so about 2" square to these 2 songs

What's the top 5?

all i remember was the beatles are at number one with a day in our lives or what ever its called and the kinks/ray davies are at number two with waterloo sunset.

it might have been the smiths 3rd but i can't honestly remember as i nearly through the magazine down in disgust at the lowly New order position and procceded to walk out the shop

Fuck whoever needs those STUPID top 100 to know what to buy or say it's cool.

I hate hendrix. I hate rolling stones. and I certainly hate bloody boring beatles.

Paul is dead.

A german comedian translated the song and performed it in german... I never laughed so hard before...

Q's shit. Read Mojo.

(Q's regarded as the pointless, gosspiy, overrating tabloid of music...)

I mean, X&Y ***** my ass...

Christ almighty, the top five is so depressing!!! God save the Queen was terrible, and I absolutely hate Queen.

but the masses rule I suppose.

i love wonderwall, but number 3? i think not.
