Let's vote out Gareth Gates! I never liked people who came out of pop idol (Will Young (except a few of his songs), Gareth Gates, Sam & Mark, Michele McManus, etc. are all complete rubbish!)

Edited June 3, 201114 yr by danielMFAO

Still voting Proper Crimbo. It's a mess of a song, even if it is supposed to be novelty. :puke:

Chronic Kitten - surely Britain's worst ever girlband? (after BWitched, of course)

now that Crapman Scoop is out, I'll go with David Sneddon- Stop Living The Lie, I have heard it, and I literally cannot recall how it goes

Shayne Richie - I'm Your Man

Big Brovaz. A lot of these reality show acts/charity/novelty songs aren't great, but at least they aren't utter crap like that.

Voted for Changes again.

Bo Selecta - Proper Crimbo

I can't even begin to go into how much I hate Ignition... It's one of my least favourite songs of all time.

Absolutely XTM this time. Horrible cheesy eurodance cover that was played to death on the music channels at the time just because it had a mildly unique and memorable video. I expect I'll be voting for this for at least 15 rounds though, probably more.

 

I hope Bo Selecta doesn't go! I bought it at the time and still dig it out on the odd Christmas, so it's definitely aged well for a novelty song for me! The 2004 Bo Selecta single just didn't work though, but this was one was great. Was definitely hoping it'd be Xmas #1 that year...

Shayne Richie

R Kelly - Ignition

Shane Ritchie (I'm quite sure there's no 'y' in the name), crap cover

Shane Ritchie/ I'm Your Man

You're not Shane to people voting in this rate

Big Brovaz - Baby Boy

Absolutely XTM this time. Horrible cheesy eurodance cover that was played to death on the music channels at the time just because it had a mildly unique and memorable video. I expect I'll be voting for this for at least 15 rounds though, probably more.

 

I hope Bo Selecta doesn't go! I bought it at the time and still dig it out on the odd Christmas, so it's definitely aged well for a novelty song for me! The 2004 Bo Selecta single just didn't work though, but this was one was great. Was definitely hoping it'd be Xmas #1 that year...

I'll happily join you in voting for XTM. It's dreadful.

Was Atomic Kitten - If You Come To Me that successful to finish Top 40 EOY? I had no idea. (I'm currently quite pleased since it's one of the very few of their singles I still find listenable).

 

Good to see we've already eliminated the 3 worst songs. 50 Cent gets my vote this round. I do rather adore 2003 in music though. Most of my favourites flopped I admit but this list still has a lot of great tracks.

How on earth DID If You Come To Me make it that high in the EOY chart come to think of it? It had a diabolical chart run, compare that to Jamelia's Superstar which was just a place higher but had a really long chart run, likewise a load of the songs it finished above. I can only assume it had a huge opening week but I don't recall it having one...

No, it didn't.
