May 11, 201213 yr it's called musical awareness... musical heritage. Something you, too, seem utterly gloriously oblivious to. It's like having a Best Boyband competition minus a single song by Take That or The Beatles. Oh, and Venus is rubbish anyway.... pity it's the only reference point you have. What exactly is the point of personal attacks? I was pointing out that nobody under the age of 30 is going to take the time to listen to a band they probably haven't heard of, and if they HAVE, are not interested in listening to outside of a few well-known tracks. Oh and I mentioned Venus because it IS one of those tracks that people my age and younger would recognise. I don't recommend coming into a thread and throwing snobbish remarks and insults around. It's un-called for.
May 11, 201213 yr Author YES! I loved their b-side 'Give Me One Night' too! might give that a vote! Hardly surprising considering the age of most of the members on this forum. So get off your high horse and stop being so rude about it. I wouldn't be surprised if people on here didn't actually know of them. People don't have to nominate them if they don't want too, and sorry to upset you, but nothing from them will be anywhere near making my list (yes I've listened to a few of their things, I just don't like them - it's personal taste, btw). You're so rude with how you come about things on here. EDIT: Casey, are we allowed to nominate album tracks/b-sides or is it strictly singles? Yeah, you can nominate anything you like, I stayed away from them as I didn't think many others would vote for them and then it seemed a bit like a wasted vote.
May 11, 201213 yr I will do this when I find the time r Case. Choosing between songs by girl groups will be like trying to choose between my children.

May 11, 201213 yr YES! I loved their b-side 'Give Me One Night' too! might give that a vote! I did too! The follow up single was great as well, but the album was sadly frightfully dull :( As far as Bananarama goes, they came close to reaching my top 40 with Move In My Direction and Love Don't Live Here but I don't find their earlier material that strong really. I also wouldn't say that they shaped girl groups of the future considering quite a number of girl groups existed before them and for our era it was the Spice Girls that reignited the country's interest in girl groups.
May 11, 201213 yr I remember doing one of these on here myself a couple of years back. I still have the spreadsheet so I remember what everyone voted for! Anyways I will do my top 40 when I'm not so tired..
May 11, 201213 yr All Saints 'Black Coffee' Sugababes 'Freak Like Me' Sugababes 'Run For Cover' I don't have anymore. :( Massive shudder at what Sugababes became.

May 11, 201213 yr The Waitresses - Christmas Wrapping (seasonal yeah, but still great) NOT A GIRL GROUP (i checked)
May 12, 201213 yr NOT A GIRL GROUP (i checked) so they aren't :o replaced with what would probably be a more popular choice :P Edited May 12, 201213 yr by C.W

May 12, 201213 yr Ugh. How could I forget The Pussycat Dolls?! :mellow: Hopefully they'll get through without my nominations! I have no idea how I forgot about them considering they're one of my favourite girl groups.
May 12, 201213 yr I hardly expected these nominations to be full of '60s girlgroups but if The Ronettes' 'Be My Baby' - aka THE BEST GIRLGROUP SONG EVER RECORDED - doesn't even make it through this stage I am leaving this entire forum. Oh and I'll do this later. :D THE SHANGRI-LAS REPRESENT
