I Just Can’t Get You Out of My Head

Pop music this decade has been, well crap. 

Of course that is apart from Outcast, Lhasa, Radiohead, The Darkness, Jay-Z, Branford Marsalis, White Stripe, M.I.A, The Flaming Lips, Amy Winehouse, Lykke Li, Rachid Taha, Acoustic Ladyland, Barack Schmool, Jamie Cullum, Diana Krall, Elbow …

What am I saying? The Noughties were great!

2009, not so much.  Just empty forgettable bubblegum music.

My favorite YouTube mashup artist, DJ Earworm (that’s his name, I swear), has released his annual mixdown of the Billboard Top 25 Albums of 2009.  It’s fun, it’s frazzled, its Boom Boom Pow!

  1. Nice and noisy. Nothing memorable, but nice.

  2. The best rap music is on z-share and myspace (even Lupe and K’naan’s best work is on underground mixtapes) so I’m willing to bet that the same is true for rock and jazz and other forms of pop music. You need to look underground.

    I am currently listening to this thing by Skyzoo.

  3. boom boom pow! yay! yup you are right about bubblegum music, tokyo drift wasnt so bad or owl city? okay its rock for me

  4. Always delighted to see another Elbow fan. Probably my favourite group of the decade.

  5. Can you believe Lhasa died in Montreal on the first day of this new year ? I am mourning, she was great and I had the chance to see her on stage many times in Quebec city…

  6. not all the music from this decade has been noise. Listening to bombay bicycle club, a rock band from south london, uk. nice stuff
