It doesn't seem to be Robbie's day in this forum. kink.gif Finishing in a respectable fourth place is his mid-noughties hit 'Tripping'. Released as the lead single to Robbie's album Intensive Care toward the end of 2005, the song reached #2 behind the Sugababes' 'Push the Button'. As far as Robbie goes, this is one of his better singles although I'm shocked it actually charted as high as #2. laugh.gif It seems like a #4 hit for some reason. It's fair to say it has fallen into obscurity these days and isn't considered a Robbie classic. At least it managed top 4 here!

I have no preference between Naive and Broken Strings so opted for the former this time.

Yeah I instantly regret voting for The Kooks. laugh.gif It would be quite a feat for them to finish top 2.

Fantastic top 3. Actually don't care which order they fall in. I think at a push I'd actually have to go for DJ Sammy ph34r.gif but a very reluctant one.

Poor Robbie! But this one went a lot further than I expected tbf. I thought the overuse of falsetto would put this as one of his most hated songs.

How is such an incredibly boring & mundane wallpaper song like Broken Strings still here?!
