March 28, 201015 yr 1. Melanie C & Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes - Never Be The Same Again - My two favourite members from the best UK & US girl groups of the 1990s united to make a brilliant record. CLfPUd0-kj8 2. Moloko - The Time Is Now - Probably their best track. 3. Santana ft Rob Thomas - Smooth - A great track that flopped in 1999. But reissued after its success at the 2000 Grammy Awards. 4. Geri Halliwell - Bag It Up - How did this dire track reach #1? 5. Chicane & Bryan Adams - Don't Give Up - An OK track but hardly deserving of a #1 hit. 6. Blink 182 - All The Small Things - Awful. I hate Blink-182 records. 7. Dr Dre & Snoop Dogg - Still Dre - A really good record. 8. Madonna - American Pie - I hated the Don McLean original. But I really liked this version. 9. All Saints - Pure Shores - A great song from a dull movie with a dreadful video. 10. ATB - Killer - A pointless Ibiza dance record. 13. Lene Marlin - Sitting Down Here 24. Primal Scream - Kill All Hippies 25. Gabrielle - Rise 31. Kelis - Caught Out There 33. Doves - The Cedar Room 34. Christina Aguilera - What A Girl Wants 39. Semisonic - Singing In My Sleep A very poor chart from a very poor year in music.

March 29, 201015 yr The public must have been asleep this week - 2000 has a load of great songs but they're mostly absent in this chart. Only ones I like are: 6. Blink 182 - All The Small Things 7. Dr Dre & Snoop Dogg - Still Dre 10. ATB - Killer 23. Moby - Natural Blues Following week wasn't much cop either :\

March 30, 201015 yr 1. Melanie C & Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes - Never Be The Same Again Whoever told Mel C could sing was insane, her live vocals were on par to the sounds of a strangled cat. Her occasional piece of critical acclaim went straight to her head, when really she is equally as unpleasent as a singer as Victoria! Shame about Left Eye, TLC were great. This is a very poor single though. 2. Moloko - The Time Is Now Great single from a great British act, a shame Roisin has never received the exposure she deserves as a soloist. 3. Santana ft Rob Thomas - Smooth Santana... EUGH! 4. Geri Halliwell - Bag It Up Still not as a vulger as Mel C 5. Chicane & Bryan Adams - Don't Give Up Rubbish 6. Blink 182 - All The Small Things Annoying 7. Dr Dre & Snoop Dogg - Still Dre Never liked this 8. Madonna - American Pie One of the worse things Madge has done 9. All Saints - Pure Shores Great track 10. ATB - Killer Totally pointless and uninspired cover version And of the rest, I like... 12. N'N'G ft Kallaghan - Right Before My Eyes Great 2-Step version of the Patty Day classic 30. Macy Gray - Still Better than Try, or probably because it is sooooo bloody overplayed! 31. Kelis - Caught Out There Great track from a great album 37. Barbara Tucker - Stop Playing With My Mind Now this is RIGHT up my street, Ms Tucker has a massive cult following in house music circles. Absolutely love this bit of vocal house with knock-out vocals. Probably means absolutely nothing to anybody else here though... And the worse... 13. Lene Marlin - Sitting Down Here How can anyone got any form of pleasure or emotion from a truly pointless artist was beyond me Edited March 30, 201015 yr by ScottyEm

Artful Dodger & Romina Johnson - Movin' Too Fast 20. N Sync - Bye Bye Bye 21. Five - Don't Wanna Let You Go 25. Gabrielle - Rise 27. Jamelia ft Beenie Man - Money 28.

Eiffel 65 - Move Your Body In fact I like most of the songs, but don't register as favorites.
April 11, 201015 yr 1. Melanie C & Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes - Never Be The Same Again Whoever told Mel C could sing was insane, her live vocals were on par to the sounds of a strangled cat. Her occasional piece of critical acclaim went straight to her head, when really she is equally as unpleasent as a singer as Victoria! . i fully agree scotty.... i know richard rates her but i cannot fathom why. she is beyond doubt one of the worst female vocalists of all time, ok not as bad as heather small (m people) or dido (it would help if she finished the word she was singing instead of seemingly running out of breath), but mel c has clearly a very unattractive voice...its horrible! and most of her lyrics are appallingly childish.
April 27, 201015 yr 9. All Saints - Pure Shores Wonderful tune ! Still listen to it from time to time
April 27, 201015 yr Brilliant: 2. Moloko - The Time Is Now 3. Santana ft Rob Thomas - Smooth 6. Blink 182 - All The Small Things 7. Dr Dre & Snoop Dogg - Still Dre 9. All Saints - Pure Shores 10. ATB - Killer 14. Savage Garden - Crash & Burn 20. N Sync - Bye Bye Bye 23. Moby - Natural Blues 24. Primal Scream - Kill All Hippies 25. Gabrielle - Rise 28. Backstreet Boys - Show Me The Meaning Of Being Lonely 30. Macy Gray - Still 31. Kelis - Caught Out There 33. Doves - The Cedar Room Actually an amazing chart tbh...Full of great pop songs
April 27, 201015 yr Songs I liked the most: 1. Melanie C & Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes - Never Be The Same Again I thought 'NBTSA' was by far Mel C's best single. Despite other posters views in this thread, I'd much rather listen to Mel C anytime than one minute of Geri Haillwell. 2. Moloko - The Time Is Now Following the anthemic 'Sing It Back', I was surprised this was Moloko when I first heard it. Another brilliant track 3. Santana ft Rob Thomas - Smooth Who'd have thought Santana teaming up with all those young US artists would prove to be such a success story. Even in Europe follow up 'Maria Maria' was a massive hit. I liked 'Smooth' but it's far from a classic. 6. Blink 182 - All The Small Things Their spoof US popstars inspired video was great. In fact I saw the video this morning on VH-1 Classic. 9. All Saints - Pure Shores 100% :wub: By far one of my fave tracks of 2000. Adored this song when it was first released and I still think it's excellent ten years on. 18. Tom Jones & Stereophonics - Mama Told Me Not To Come Like Santana, there was something in the air making aging musical acts to collaborate with younger acts who appeal to a different audience. I thought this was a decent cover. However, the idea of Tom Jones singing a song called 'Sex Bomb' at his age seemed a bit...erm, perverted? :lol: 23. Moby - Natural Blues This was a great chilled out track. I don't think Moby will ever enjoy the massive worldwide success he did with his album 'Play'. 31. Kelis - Caught Out There "I hate you so much right now". First time I heard this was on Radio 1 during an art lesson at college. The expressions on some of my mates' faces at that very moment in time were priceless. It seemed like at first they were thinking "wtf is this?" but by the end of the song thinking "yeah, this is cool". :lol: Other comments: 4. Geri Halliwell - Bag It Up I mean, seriously? :puke: In 2000, there were two ways of achieving a no. 1 single. Firstly, appear in Smash Hits or secondly, appear on the front page of a tabloid newspaper for several consecutive days. Geri did both. Media whore!!! 5. Chicane & Bryan Adams - Don't Give Up 'Saltwater' from the summer of 1999 was a fantastic hypnotic slice of Euphoric trance. This was dull - even by Bryan Adams standards - so how the hell did this get to no. 1? :manson: 8. Madonna - American Pie I know it's her Madgesty, the Queen of Pop but still, just because This Morning had the world exclusive first play of the video shouldn't mean people rush out and buy this thing. Madonna's released much better songs that have sadly missed the no. 1 spot. 25. Gabrielle - Rise I was plesantly surprised when this went to no. 1 in the UK. Especially after 'Sunshine' made #9 in November 1999. The boxing inspired video fitted in well with the lyrics to the song. Jamelia released the sequel 'Thank You' in 2004.
April 28, 201015 yr 1. Melanie C & Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes - Never Be The Same Again I thought 'NBTSA' was by far Mel C's best single. Despite other posters views in this thread, I'd much rather listen to Mel C anytime than one minute of Geri Haillwell. i hate both! :P emma was the best imho.
April 28, 201015 yr So what was happening ten years ago Not much!! 24. Primal Scream - Kill All Hippies 33. Doves - The Cedar Room
April 28, 201015 yr i hate both! :P emma was the best imho. I 100% agree with that. How I'd rank Spice Girls as solo artists: Emma Mel C ** big gap ** Geri/Mel B/Victoria <--- didn't rate any of them as solo artists.
April 29, 201015 yr I 100% agree with that. How I'd rank Spice Girls as solo artists: Emma Mel C ** big gap ** Geri/Mel B/Victoria <--- didn't rate any of them as solo artists. i only rate emma (and thats just 'ok') cant abide mel c's voice and her lyrics can be bloody embarrassingly bad.
May 3, 201015 yr 1. Melanie C & Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes - Never Be The Same Again 2. Moloko - The Time Is Now two of the best singles of the year
