Creedence Clearwater Revival - Up Around The Bend
Kelis featuring Andre 3000 - Millionaire
The Killers - Human
Oceanic - Insanity



Two songs by The Killers have received votes, one has done very well but this one, which I prefer, hasn't. Insanity by Oceanic is still in the 1991 Survivor Poll in the Pre-2000s forum but it doesn't survive for long here.

City High - What Would You Do?
Chairmen Of The Board - Give Me Just A Little More Time
Alexis Jordan - Happiness
Level 42 - Lessons In Love
No Doubt - Just A Girl
Sabrina - Boys (Summertime Love)
Santana featuring Rob Thomas - Smooth
The Seahorses - Love Is The Law
Usher - U Remind Me



This was Level 42's highest charting single and my favourite song by them, of the ones I know. Also here is another early 70s soul classic, this time by Chairmen Of The Board and Sabrina, a favourite of every teenage boy in 1988.

I liked Kylies cover of Give Me A Little More Time
Human is the Killers best hit and I remember Smooth was played everywhere in 2000 but rarely hear it nowadays

I've lost three now. Knew the Seahorses probably wouldn't get many other votes, but pretty surprised Love Shine A Light didn't either

I'm taking 30 at the top of a list to mean 30 points.

If you had counted DarrenJ nominations this way, 'The Love I Lost' would have had much more points than 14. unsure.gif

Well spotted. My scoresheets are in alphabetical order by artist. As Vibe put the artist as Sybil on his vote I have 'The Love I Lost' under S and W. I will now combine its two scores.

Oceanic's 'Insanity' is SUCH a tune and its follow up 'Wicked Love' wasn't bad either wub.gif

I'm not sure if I undertood your reply.
I think 'The Love I Lost' got 40 points. 25 from DarrenJ77, 14 from vibe and 1 point from me, right?

Nobody else voted for Smooth! And I gave City High 14/16 of its points!

Yes, it had 14 points under G and 26 points under W. So two scores from 3 people.

David Bowie - Sound And Vision
DJ Fresh vs Jay Fay featuring Ms Dynamite - Dibby Dibby Sound
Post Malone - Wow
Suzi Quatro - 48 Crash
Bobby Vee - The Night Has A Thousand Eyes



From 1973, this was Suzi Quatro's follow-up to her no.1 single, Can The Can. She went on to have one more no.1. A great song by David Bowie is here along with the oldest single to receive a vote. The Night Has A Thousand Eyes is from February 1963 and was one of seven top 10 hits for Bobby Vee.

I thought I'd voted for Seahorses, but must have just missed out. Think I've only lost Songbird (1) and Purple Haze (11) so far. Definitely some dropped out I thought would do much better, Human probably the most notable.

Betty Boo - Where Are You Baby?
The 411 - Dumb
R Kelly - She's Got That Vibe
Little Mix - DNA
MC Hammer - U Can't Touch This
Vanessa Paradis - Joe Le Taxi
Sam Smith and Normani - Dancing With A Stranger
Keala Settle and The Greatest Showman Ensemble - This Is Me
Stevie Wonder - Lately



Tying in with the TOTP repeats on BBC4 is U Can't Touch This which samples Super Freak by Rick James. It won't be long on TOTP (August 1990) before we see Betty Boo's highest charting single. Vanessa Paradis was only 14 years old when she recorded Joe Le Taxi.

The Bangles - Walk Like An Egyptian
Beyonce featuring Bun B and Slim Thug - Check On It
Dr Dre featuring Snoop Dog - The Next Episode
Girls Aloud - Call The Shots
The Mamas and the Papas - Monday Monday
Wet Wet Wet - If I Never See You Again



The Bangles' second top 3 single from 1986, the first was Manic Monday which leads us nicely to Monday Monday which was a hit for the Mamas and the Papas in 1966. Buzzjack's third favourite group, Girls Aloud, have already lost both of their songs. Their other number 3, Something Kinda Ooooh, received no votes at all.

I was the only one to show Stevie's 'Lately' any love. sad.gif Good to see I wasn't the only one giving 'Monday Monday' some points. cheer.gif

Also a victory for taste with 'Life Got Cold' receiving points while 'Something Kinda Ooooh' didn't. tongue.gif

Big Brovaz - Nu Flow
Dido - Thank You
DB Boulevard - Point Of View
Jamelia - Superstar
Jennifer Lopez - Play
The Ordinary Boys - Boys Will Be Boys
Alexandra Stan - Mr. Saxobeat



A one hit wonder from 2002, I would have liked to have given points to both this and Walk Like An Egyptian but there were too many good songs ahead of them. Thank You by Dido became a hit four years after it was recorded after being sampled in Stan by Eminem.

I'm shocked I'm the only person who voted for Betty Boo sad.gif 'Where Are You Baby' is so much fun. In fact I've been the only voter for all my songs which have left so far. I think that might be the last one now, although there's a chance I'm the only voter for my 30 pointer!
