That was one of the reasons I wanted to reduce the final down to 50 songs so that there would not be any songs that some people might not know.

I think I only gave a couple points to Blue Monday cos I was only considering the 88 Mix
the original and the 88 Mix were never combined afaik, they were different releases per the occ |

48. Britney Spears - Sometimes 138 pts
Writers - Per Magnusson, David Kreuger, Jörgen Elofsson Top points - Alex! 18, Mark223 18, NickF1 18 Britney's second single and the biggest seller by her not to reach number 1. Sometimes was given a wild card after No Sleeep gave it 30 points in the first round but he didn't vote this time. It still receives support here from other voters. |

47. All Saints - Rock Steady 141 pts
Writers - Shaznay Lewis, Greg Kurstin Top points - DarrenJ77 23, Alex! 20, NickF1 20 From 2006, this was All Saints' comeback single. I'm surprised to see that none of the seven singles they have released since then have managed to reach the top 100. |

46. George Michael - I Want Your Sex 153 pts
Writer - George Michael Top points - Mark223 24, Scene 23, garyfeld 22 George Michael's fourth single and the first not to reach number 1. The lyrical content led to it only being played on Radio 1 after the watershed. |

‘Rock Steady’ is the first to drop out of my votes albeit only a 2 pointer I think.

45. Annie Lennox - Little Bird/Love Song For A Vampire 157 pts
Writer - Annie Lennox (both) Top points - marcinjaro 24, Shoat 21, StoneDragon 18 I don't know which side you were voting for here. I based my vote on Love Song For A Vampire but I remember Little Bird well so this is one of those double A side singles that had both sides being played regularly on the radio. Love Song For A Vampire was written for the film 'Bram Stoker's Dracula'. |

'AM To PM' was one of the songs that was originally getting a couple of points from me before I decided to just cut it to a top 20. Surprised it's done so poorly here though.

Not my wildcard being the first song out
Sad to see Erasure's 'Chorus' bow out so early too. |

That Annie Lennox AA single was great, Little Bird is her best pop moment whilst Love Song was beautiful

Writers - Cédric Steinmyller, Edgar Catry Top points - coi 24, Jason 23, danG 23 A one hit wonder by the French duo with vocals by Lucie Decarne and a saxophone sample from Snake Davis who has worked with a string of well known names over the last 40 years. |

Sad to see BBE go. Didn't make much of an impression on me when it first came out when I was a kid. But has grown on me a lot in the intervening years.
