Still no Mirrors?...

:( I think they will playlist Mirrors if they interview Natalia or after Mirrors start climbing and go top 40 on itunes! Hope i'm wrong and next week be on the playlist!

 

Wow a fantastic retro week! So many good songs there (Special Cases, Eple, Songbird, Move Your Feet, Can't Stop, Clocks and a few more :wub: )

That's why I chose the year :)
A-List

 

Christina Aguilera - Beautiful

Cam'ron - Hey Ma LOVE this! Funnily enough I heard it on Radio 1 not long ago so it's good to see they haven't completely forgotten it.

Junior Senior - Move Your Feet

Mis-Teeq - Scandalous Along with One Night Stand, the only Mis-Teeq song that would get a play from me these days.

Kelly Rowland - Stole Good, but I thought it was genuinely amazing back then. Sounds a lot more ordinary now.

Royksopp - Eple

T.A.T.U - All The Things She Said Iconic 00s track obviously.

Justin Timberlake - Cry Me A River

 

B-List

 

Ruby Amanfu - Sugah Bought this at the time, deserved a hell of a lot better than what it got.

Dannii Minogue - I Begin To Wonder

Moloko - Familiar Feeling Wonderful! Pop like this would really have no chance of making top 10 now.

N.E.R.D - Provider (Zero 7 edit)

 

C-List

 

Massive Attack - Special Cases

Placebo - The Bitter End

The Coral - Don't Think You're The First

Those are the good songs for me. Rest are either average or just flat out crap.

 

Did they not support Shania? :o Ka-Ching was out at this time. Although they might have already kicked it off by then maybe, not sure of the weeks.

Not my favourite retro, I really hated 2003 mainstream music wise for some reason, I'm not sure if it was because I was so wrapped up in my GCSE's that I wasn't really paying any attention to things but I honestly only like about 6 songs from that entire playlist. Was Delta's Born To Try playlist by Radio 1, it was probably a few weeks later I guess. That was the first song I strongly sat up and took note of in 2003, and that was quite a few months into the year :lol:

 

I would say Beautiful as well but I bought Stripped in late 2002 so was already aware of it.

3 No1s in there-

t.A.t.U/ All The Things She Said

Christina Aguliera/ Beautiful

Room5/ Make Luv

still no Britney :(

 

I am sure like Parade if she gets within the Top 10 once the video is out she will be added not sure why they always add dire Taylor Swift.Usher and Mike Posner will I am sure be added when they hit the Top 10 too.

A brillant retro playlist-

Move Your Feet

Make Luv

Clocks

Boys Of Summer

In Da Club

Work It

Scandalous

Cry Me A River

All The Things She Said

All I Have

Gimme The Light

Missy Elliott - Gossip Folks (Fatboy Slim remix)

Ja Rule ft Ashanti - Mesmerize (AOT was way better though)

Mis-Teeq - Scandalous (Good track, but prefer their garage hits)

Richard X vs Liberty X - Being Nobody

Kelly Rowland - Stole (Can't Nobody was better)

Sugababes - Shape

T.A.T.U - All The Things She Said

Justin Timberlake - Cry Me A River

 

B-List

Big Brovaz - OK

Jennifer Lopez ft LL Cool J - All I Have

Dannii Minogue - I Begin To Wonder (not at the time though)

Moloko - Familiar Feeling

Sean Paul - Gimme The Light (probably still his best track)

Sarah Whatmore - Automatic

 

C-List

B2K ft P Diddy - Bump Bump Bump

* Eve - Satisfaction (not one of her best though)

MJ Cole - Wonderin' Why (soooo underrated)

 

 

 

Surprised to see Parade there. Jumping on the bandwagon

 

Was The Saturdays If This Is Love playlisted ?

 

I think all of their singles have been A-Listed. No?

I liked 2003. It was a pretty big year for urban music, but not to the extent where other genres were shut out. Pop music was still kind of crappy and stuck in the bottomless pit of 2001/02 though, outside of a few acts. But things were improving there, and the reality TV domination of 2002 was subsiding slightly. Terrible year for alternative music though. Thank god Franz Ferdinand arrived as soon as 2004 kicked off to bring it back to the upper reaches of the chart.

 

And how could you not sit up and take notice of t.A.T.u.?! :P

 

Shania was not playlisted, obviously :lol:

Did they never playlist her? :o I find it hard to believe they ignored an act who was as huge as Shania was at one point. Really surprising.

Because I first heard (and was obsessed with) All The Things She Said in late 2002! As usual, by the time it came to the UK it was old news to me...the only big UK chart hits that I cared about in 2003 (besides Delta's singles) were Girls Aloud - No Good Advice and Life Got Cold, XTM - Fly On The Wings Of Love, Jurgen Vries/CMC - The Opera Song, DJ Sammy's The Boys Of Summer and Christina Aguilera's 2003 singles (all of which again I heard in 2002 first). I was mostly into relative or proper flops/minor hits during 2003 - Texas - Carnvial Girl, Puretone - Stuck In A Groove, Masai - Do That Thang, Love Inc - Broken Bones and Boomkat - The Wreckoning (#37 SMASH!) :wub:

2003 was one of the most urban dominated years imo, it was also the first time the UK had a R&B top5 in the singles chart ;) Pop was good but not as good as 2000-2 imo.

 

I dont have many playlist from the 90s but I know she did get playlisted at one point. She definitely wasnt with her "Up" album though, but then the Radio 1 playlist got increasingly snobbish over the years

Yeah "All The Things She Said" is 2002 for me too, first heard it in August 2002 in my holidays in Spain, then it was all over MTV Europe in Autumn 2002.
