August 3, 200618 yr meds by placebo x by liberty x summer of 69 by bryan adams ellie campbell dont want you back jump and joy vamoz everybody vanessa amorosi the power whitewater original
August 3, 200618 yr One Of my fave U2 songs, cant believe it charted so low! :angry: most early U2 singles either charted too low or missed completely - quite how "I Will Follow" managed to miss the chart completely in 1980 is still a mystery to me. It even managed to chart in the US, albeit in 1984 (though it only reached #81).
August 3, 200618 yr Welcome to the monkey house by Animal Magnet Kiss Me (original version) by Stephen Tintin Duffy Brown Eyed Girl by Van Morrison These are all good cheesy party songs but never made the top 40
August 3, 200618 yr Here's some of my fav non-Top 40 hits Bryan Adams - Summer Of 69 One Too Many - Downtown Donna Summer - Breakaway Gloria Estefan - Cuts Both Ways Deon Estas - Heaven Help Me (George Michael on backing vocals) The Jets - You Got It All (not given UK release but was a billboard hit) Eighth Wonder - Baby Baby Roxette - Vulnerable Sheryl Crow - Leaving Las Vegas Animal Magnet - Monkey House There are probably other non-hits that i liked but that's what i can think of at the moment.
August 3, 200618 yr agree with roxette and gloria estefan,both acts have had many top 40 misses that deserved to do better
August 4, 200618 yr The Corrs - Forgiven Not Forgotten, I Never Loved You Anyway, The Right Time, Only When I Sleep (which were all MUCH better than anything they've done since Talk On Corners). Sheryl Crow - Leaving Las Vegas Alanis Morissette - Precious Illusions Annie - Heartbeat Zero 7 - Somersault Norah Jones - Come Away With Me
August 4, 200618 yr ya all the corrs singls from forgiven not forgotten deserved far better success,although i do love all there singles since also, norah jones is another who deserved bigger singles success also
