I always loved the Toca's Miracle video with the female futsal game. From the goalie wearing heels and liming nails during the game to Coco shaking her boobs while lipsynching. And of course Coco had to be the top scorer of the game.

There is one more all time great in the 2000 year of the thread and it is also trance too.
He's joking guys. If you look at his posts closely, it may give you a hint of what the next song on the rundown is going to be :D

Oh haha! I totally took it seriously! :blush:

 

Anyway, liked the Fragma track but at the time was all cool so preferred the lesser heard original instrumental and spent lots of time telling people that I liked it back when the original was released - How tragic! :/

London garage duo Oxide & Neutrino, DJ Alex Rivers and MC Mark Osei-Tutu, exploded onto the scene in spring 2000 with this BBC medical drama Casualty theme sampling jam ‘Bound 4 Da Reload (Casualty)’. The song had shifted over 20,000 copies in 1999 on white label before being picked up East West.

 

“Ah, I've been shot!”

“I don't f**king believe this, could everyone stop getting shot?”

 

There was some minor controversy over the use of spoken samples, courtesy of Tony McMahon and Frank Harper, from the film ‘Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels”.

 

‘Bound 4 Da Reload’ narrowly edged out Fragma by around 1.5k to snatch a week at the top with ~71k. Incidentally the week ending 06/05/2000 was a particularly fruitful one for garage as True Steppers ‘Buggin’ (7), Sweet Female Attitude ‘Flowers’ (8) & MJ Cole ‘Crazy Love’ (10) joined Oxide & Neutrino in the top10.

 

This wasn’t to be the only time Oxide & Neutrino tasted #1 success as they also belonged to a larger London garage/grime collective...

I think there may be more than 1.

Bound 4 Da Reload - Dont remember it at all but it was actually one of the more different garage tunes because of that Casualty theme tunes and it was uplifting and I prefer it to the deeper garage such as Flowers and Moving Too Fast

I suppose the modern example was David Guetta and NeYo's Work Hard, I think we all preferred the original of that one.

 

This year I preferred the original by Jade of Be Right There by Dlplo and Sleepy Tom (not that I knew it before the Diplo and Sleepy Tom one came out) it was completely ruined by that generic 'future house' drop after the chorus.

When you say deeper garage what do you mean?

I've never really 'got' Bound 4 Da Reload, the other big garage hits around the time were better.

 

Toca's Miracle is incredible, really good trance that's very much helped by its vocal. Also it would end up as the #2 in the year-end 2000 dance chart. Keep #1 guesses in spoiler tags.

I'm just trying to drum up excitement for the end of year chart :lol:

 

 

B-)

 

*on the edge of my seat*

Well there was the more soulful deep garage like Moving Too Fast and Flowers and the more uptempo stuff like Re-Rewind thats what I mean.

Madison Avenue - Don't Call Me Baby

Official Chart Run 1-2-5-10-17-20-23-32-41-56-60-70 (12 weeks)

 

 

Australian dance duo Madison Avenue was comprised of producer Andy Van Dorsselaer and singer Cheyne Coates from Melbourne. They enjoyed massive success down under in the fall of 1999 with ‘Don’t Call Me Baby’ reaching #2 in Australia and #1 in New Zealand, however it received a more muted response in the UK reaching #30 during November 1999.

 

‘Don’t Call Me Baby’ features a bassline sample from Pino D'Angio’s 1980 Italo disco track 'Ma-quale-idea', which itself was based on the 1979 McFadden & Whitehead #5 disco hit 'Ain't No Stoppin' Us Now'.

 

Reissued on Virgin, with a major promotional drive, ‘Don’t Call Me Baby’ raced to #1 on sales of 93k in May 2000. It was the first UK #1 recorded in the country by an Antipodean act for 17 years (since Men At Work in 1983) as Kylie, Jason, and Peter Andre’s hits were all cooked up in the UK.

 

Sadly this is the only appearance in this rundown for Madison Avenue, but happily they weren’t a one hit wonder as ‘Who The Hell Are You?’ reached #10 in October 2000. ‘Everything You Need’ was their third and final UK hit reaching #33 in January 2001. They soon split up with Van Dorsselaer going to form a new group Vandalism, who’ve enjoyed minor chart success in Austrialia.

Well there was the more soulful deep garage like Moving Too Fast and Flowers and the more uptempo stuff like Re-Rewind thats what I mean.

 

 

I'm not getting the "deep" part.
