Wrap Up.
To prepare you for the impending tedium of this year’s Pointless Lists Week, here are a bunch of utterly redundant yet strangely satisfying statistical findings culled from my Top 40 count-down..
COUNTRIES -
USA – 25
UK – 9
Canada - 3
Australia – 2
Exciting USA/UK crossover – 1
Hmm.. bad night for the non-English speaking world. What can I say, I suck..
LABELS –
Not Not Fun – 3
Goner – 2
Sacred Bones - 2
Other small indie labels – 18
Other medium/big indie labels – 13
Self-released / no label - 2
Major labels – 0
Yay! Die lame corporate “music industry”, etc etc.
MUSIC BASED PRIMARILY AROUND GUITARS?
Yes – 30
No – 10
Y’know, I think for me this is probably a record.
SIGNIFICANT FEMALE SONGWRITING/SINGING CONTRIBUTIONS?
Yes – 19
No – 21
“Hey, that’s almost like real life!”.
HIPPY OR PUNK?
Punk – 19
Hippy – 11
Could go either way – 7
INDIE, MOTHERFUCKER – 3
I am frankly terrified by this resurgence of hippy in my contemporary music taste.
