I wanted to do something similar (maybe for other decade), but my rates are very strict, so the most popular marks will be from 3 to 5 out of possible 10.

The good stuff keeps coming - five songs on the last page all made my top 10 of the year at some point in time, of which only 'Babylon' and 'Yellow' were there when I last did each year of the 2000s in 2010, but 'Porcelain' and 'Sandstorm' may have since made it back in, and 'Sunday Morning Call' is the one song that's outlived Oasis' Standing On The Shoulder Of Giants era (oops at that missing "s" in the title) for me.
Elsewhere, I did have a soft spot for 'Will I Ever' - snubbed by Radio 1 but had more weeks in the Top 10 than all the songs above bar 'Sandstorm' |

'Beautiful' is brilliant indeed. I so associate it with the early 2002 chart that I am a little bit sad that you didn't leave it to then to review, early 2002 was still a good time for chart dance. Glad it was your top ranked track in its week in 2000 anyway.
I remember 'Beautiful' playing in an ice rink when I was younger too. Glad it eventually made the top 10 on its re-release. 'Iguana' with the buildup followed by the big 'drop' is like a precursor to more recent 2010s EDM especially the 2014 'big room house' scene. Very good track, would have really disliked it in 2000 when I disliked all hard dance music. This post has been edited by TheSnake: Friday, 09:04 PM |

Was great to see The Corrs finally get a No.1 single with Breathless, after never managing one with the Talk On Corners singles. The parent album was mostly very glossy sounding pop, but this was a great lead single.
Will I Ever was 3/3 for me from Alice Deejay, I was obsessed with it for weeks. But I don't like it as much as the first two. Beautiful reminds me more of 2002, an epic track indeed. I've always quite liked When I Said Goodbye, but it was basically an H and Claire vehicle before they split off into a duo. Summer Of Love is a much better track, great chorus. I had forgotten all about Neighbourhood until I heard it again a few months ago, now it's always in my head. The first three Atomic Kitten singles were all perfectly servicable teenage pop, and this had a great sample, but I didn't love them until their middle of the road rebirth and with the addition of Jenny... ...who enhanced It's Gonna Be My Way for Precious with one of her legendary spoken middle eight contributions. I bought this one on single and loved the summer vibe to it. Very different to Say It Again and Rewind. The single mix of Woman Trouble was removed from Spotify some time ago, the album version is much more bloated but the radio edit is pretty good. The better Craig doesn't add much to it but his 'bubblin' from the left...' contribution makes it sound more like a hit. This post has been edited by gooddelta: Saturday, 09:09 PM |
