August 4, 200717 yr hmm....its pretty sameish, in as much that theres nothing much to hate, but likewise nothing much to 'love'... most tracks were pretty 'safe' , nice, pleasant enough pop. i think beck and donovan 'barabajagal' and marmalades 'baby make it soon' were my favs. good chart...

'Serious' rock was becoming an album market and pop was looking around for something new. I guess glam would be the next major pop style a couple of years later.
