Outhere Brothers 'Boom Boom Boom' interesting :lol:

Prodigy 'Breathe' ~ <3

Robert Miles 'Children' ~ one of my all time faves :wub:

 

The admissions of 'Flat Beat' and 'Sweet Like Chocolate' are baffling to say the least?! The word 'selected' should probably be inserted into the title tbh.

04. CHILDREN- Robert Miles (764,000)

 

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/b/bb/Robert_Miles_-_Children_(Cover).jpg

 

YEAR: 1996

PEAK POSITION: 1

 

 

Peak Position 2 surely?

 

By the way, another excellent thread.

'Children' :wub: If only that was a #1.

 

The definition of what to include in this thread is of course open to interpretation but I have to agree that 'Flat Beat' is a rather bizarre omission. If it's not dance then what is it?

I have to say, despite not being a very active member on any forum (well, for quite a while at least), this has been a very enjoyable thread and countdown! Thank you for all of your work and effort, OP. :D

 

Would anyone know what hits *just* missed out on the Top 100? Say, 110-101?

 

I'm revising my list and will be posting a top 400 (which will have to be taken with a pinch of salt!) shortly, but will wait until the dust has settled on Gezza's list

Awesome, thank you! :D

Yeah this is still an excellent tune yah i thought it only got to no 2 and like lasted 24 weeks in the top 40

ATB - 9pm (Till I Com_)

Run DMC Vs Jason Nevins - It's Like That

Mr Oizo - Flat Beat

 

I would of expected them in the the top 10

Hmm, 'Children' - I can hear why it's popular, but it's so twee. At least it's not as bad as that mash-up where somebody clumsily chucked vocals on top of it .

 

It doesn't matter what you think of 'Flat Beat' and how it got to number one (jeans and puppets) - it's more of a dance song than the majority of the top 100.

'Children' was good but it's not a patch on 'One & One' - that's my definition of a flawless song.
Ha, not that one. There was one in the charts - with a female vocal on top, but can't think what it was called or who it was credited to.

I think it's this:

 

Possible candidates for the 3 remaining tracks (most of which have already been mentioned):

 

If-these-aren't-dance-I don't-know-what-is:

 

 

Mr Oizo - Flat Beat

ATB - 9pm (Till I Come)

 

 

Songs which I would probably count as dance, but may have been excluded:

 

 

Lou Bega - Mambo No 5

Eiffel 65 - Blue (Da Ba Dee)

Shanks & Bigfoot - Sweet Like Chocolate

Gina G - Ooh Aah ... Just A Little Bit

Whigfield - Saturday Night

Cher - Believe

 

 

Song that is generally classed a dance hit, but is actually a

rap hit that became big thanks to a dance re-mix

:

 

Run DMC vs Jason Nevins - It's Like That

 

Do I spy SHOAT viewing this thread. Even a spoiler tagged mention of a mid 90s Trent FM radio staple brings him immediately back!
