UPDATE 10:20pm: The FT appearance will be back very shortly, though the usual login problems persist I’m afraid

Thank you for your hard work. I have the ratings back now, but it’s curious that all the overall ratings for the ones I’d missed these past few weeks are whole numbers.

I think with the last few months the popular rating hasn’t been visible and there’s every chance no votes have accrued at all, so just one person (maybe you!) has voted and that’s why

I just went to “You I Belong”, and could work out that 2 other people had voted it 4 so clicking 5 made it 4.3, clicking 7 made it 5, and so on.

Pika! Pika! Chu! Chu!

10 Jul 2000 The Pokemon Phenomenon This piece was going to be an unabashed paean to Pokemania, explaining what a cracking game it was and how the mass tweener hysteria which greets every fresh Pokegame, cardset, pillow-case, or doily was a good thing inasmuch as ten-year-olds are natural obsessives and it wasn’t like they were wasting their time […]

Selling In The Name Of

15 Dec 2009 One of the things that’s fascinating about the UK Top 40 is that a device designed to be a pure expression of popularity also works as a reflection of so many other things. People buy songs: if enough people buy a song it gets into the charts, or to #1. Simple! But so simple that […]

The Sound Barrier Podcast: 8: The Phantom Carriage & A Ghost Story

15 Aug 2017 Spooky happenings over on Silent London this week, where the Sound Barrier Podcast dabbles in the supernatural, otherworldly and ectoplasmic. Or rather, a pair of meditative films which use death, and the afterlife, to dwell on the nature of existence. But if that feels a little dry, don’t worry there are madmen axing down doors, […]

WHITE TOWN – “Your Woman”

4 Feb 2014 #757, 25th January 1997 In 1997, talking about music on the Internet means USENET, a Gormenghast of diverging and reconnecting fora whose goblin tribes gleefully rampage through each other’s chosen lairs: a thread will start on alt.music.prodigy, then careen into alt.music.spice-girls via alt.music.misc, while Discordians and trolls plot to spread it still further. Still, there […]

Trashes To Trashes

1 Mar 1981 My name is Tanya Headon. I hate music. All of it. And I’m bloody good at what I do. Which is why, when picketing a gig of The Feeling I managed to get over 90% of the fans to agree with me that they are just soft rock bobbins and their new album is just […]

Pop World Cup 2018 – Group C Match 1

13 Jul 2018 What if a World Cup lasted ALL YEAR? That’s the experiment we appear to be running with this year’s PWC, and a grand experiment it is too. Here we are with the fourth match, group C, which even features a team that is STILL IN the football tournament. France are one of the great exponents […]
