How this didn't go top 40 when it's even BETTER than 'Stars Are Blind' is wild to me! (No shade to SAB either as I LOOOOOVE that too!)

EDIT: This has significantly MORE YT views than SAB too! WHATTTT?? (14m vs 8.4m!)

Maybe considered more dance, but I mean, it is Ellie, and only peaked at #65 in the UK, so it belongs in this thread;

I absolutely remember her and I agree! I thought the re-release after 'Knock You Down' smashing would have made this a top 30 hit at the very least </3

I have already shared this in a topic in the 2000s before but this pop banger goes here too. Deserved much better than a #35 peak sleep.gif

I mean a topic like this is always gonna be highly subjective, but here's mine FWIW:



Literally one of the catchiest choruses ever written, production was very in trend at the time, it was the follow up to two top ten hits and it somehow only managed to limp to a #67 peak sad.gif

Should have been a worldwide number one.

We need to go back in time and correct this.
