July 20, 201410 yr Author Good Afternoon! I've counted up your votes, and throughout the rest of the afternoon I shall be revealing your favourite songs from Now 44 as voted for by you! Many Thanks to those who have voted. I appreciate there are a few songs on here that some posters won't know as this Now is almost 15 years old. ((11), Rizer, (-1), Tboy, gavindeejay, Tylky, Luciano) ((8), Jonjo, (0), Anthony T) 40. R Kelly - If I Could Turn Back The Hands Of Time (4.68) ((10), jonjo, Rob S, (-1), ultraviolence) 39. Tina Cousins - Angel (4.77) ((7), gooddelta, Luciano, Tylky, (0), Rob S) ((8), Tylky, (0), Rob S) ((10), مدهش*, Niall Minogue (-1)) ((8), Tboy, Luciano, (0), Anthony T) Kickstarting us off is a track from the Disney film Tarzan followed by former Eastenders actress Martine McCutcheon with the follow up to her debut single 'Perfect Moment'. The song was a Top 5 hit for Martine, but sadly is yet to have a wikipedia page set up for it. R Kelly is at 40 with a track dedicated to R Kelly's mother who passed away in 1993 and reached Number 2 in 1999. We also have a few dance tracks from the back end of Disc 2 in the lower end of the countdown from the likes of Tina Cousins, Alena and Liquid Child and a R&B track from Jordan Knight, which was a Top 5 hit during the latter half of 1999.

July 20, 201410 yr obviously britney has got this with shania being the runner-up, but I'd love to see vengaboys, ann lee, shaft, S club and sixpence none the richer top 10. Edited July 20, 201410 yr by Doug
July 20, 201410 yr Author ((10), Doug, (0), Ultraviolence) 34. Tom Jones & The Cardigans - Burning Down The House (5.23) ((10), gavindeejay, (0), AnthonyT, Jack) ((9), Niall Minogue, (2), Rob S, Luciano) 32. Tina Turner - When The Heartache Is Over (5.52) ((8), Niall Minogue, Rizer, (1), Luciano) ((11), Tylky, (0), Niall Minogue, Anthony T) At 35 we have Lolly who used to present the CBBC programme XChange believe it or not with her debut single 'Micky', a cover of an 80's disco track by Toni Basil. It reached Number 4 in the UK Charts in September 1999. Next up is Sir Tom Jones with a track featuring the Cardigans. Burning Down The House is taken from his hit album 'Reload' and was a cover of an old Talking heads track. I was hoping as The Cardigans track 'My Favourite Game topped the Now 41 rate this would do better. :( Both Diana Ross and Tina Turner were still going strong and getting Top 10 hits in 1999, and dance classic 'The Launch' by DJ Jean is at #31.
July 20, 201410 yr poor lolly, I love 'mickey' :blush: it's just so cheesy and fun. I prefer it to the original for sure, probably because it was my tune when I was like 5 :lol:
July 20, 201410 yr Author 30. Bob Marley vs Funkstar De Luxe - Sun Is Shining (6.02) ((10), gavindeejay, (1), Jack) ((10), gavindeejay, Niall Minogue, (0), jsliv, AnthonyT) 28. Groove Armada feat. Gram'ma Funk - I See You Baby (Fatboy Slim Radio Edit) (6.15) ((9), Tylky, Liam, (-1), Anthony T) ((11), jsliv, (0), Anthony T) ((10), Niall Minogue, (1), Rob S) I was hoping Bob Marley would do alot better than this. In weather like this, it sounds amazing, even today. This dance remix of a reggae classic went Top 10 in September 1999. In fact all the songs in this group I thought would finish at least Top 20. Jamiroquai released some great music back in the day and 'Canned Heat' was just one of them. Man of the moment Fatboy Slim added his touch to Groove Armada's I See You Baby and Shaft's cover of a 1953 track got them to Number 2 in the UK Charts. Gabrielle's first release from the album 'Rise' is at 26.
July 20, 201410 yr Author ((11), Jester, (1) Jack) 24. Ann Lee - 2 Times (6.52) ((10), Doug, gooddelta, Tylky, (0), Ultraviolence) ((9), Doug, (3), Anthony T) ((10), Jack, Rob S, Niall Minogue, (2), Anthony T) 21. Moloko - Sing It Back (6.71) ((10), Jester, Niall Minogue, gavindeejay, (-1), jonjo, scherz) At 25 on the Now 44 rate is Supergrass with their classic 'Moving', which reached Number 9 in September 1999. Ann Lee had everyone going mad with her Number 2 hit '2 Times' and we had the Spice Girls all starting their solo careers. Emma teamed up with Tin Tin Out for a cover of the old Eddie Brickell track 'What I Am' where Geri's third solo single was a chart topper. Slap bang in the middle of this weeks rate is Moloko's dance classic 'Sing It Back'.
July 20, 201410 yr ann lee and shaft FAR too low, fully expecting vengaboys to be in the next set now! :(
July 20, 201410 yr Author ((10), Jade, (0), AnthonyT) ((11), SCOTT, (1) ultraviolence) ((10), Chez Wombat, (0), AnthonyT) ((9), Tboy, gooddelta, Niall Minogue, scherz, jonjo, (3), Luciano) ((10), Jester, gavindeejay, gooddelta, (0), Anthony T) Geri's second solo single kicks off the Top 20. I gotta be honest, I thought Mi Chico Latina would do much better than this, same for the Backstreet Boys who only make it to #19. Ronan Keatings debut solo single is at 18, and was the soundtrack to the film 'Notting Hill' giving him a Number 1 single. A nice ballad from Honeyz is at 17 and ATB's follow up to 9pm (Till I Come) rounds off this group of tracks at #16.
July 20, 201410 yr Author ((10, مدهش*), Anthony T, (3)) ((10, jsliv, Niall Minogue, Doug, (0), Ultraviolence) 13. Lou Bega - Mambo No.5 (A Little Bit Of...) (7.06) ((10), Doug, Dobbo, Tylky, Chez Wombat, (0), AnthonyT) ((11), Doug, (1), Anthony T) ((10), Doug, Tboy, Jester, Niall Minogue, Scherz, Luciano, (2), Jade) Making it into the Top 15 is Canadian act Bran Van 3000 with their hit 'Drinking In LA'. It gained in popularity after being used in a beer commercial back in 1998 and peaked at Number 3 in the UK charts. The track that Made Enrique famous is at #14. We have 3 party classics in a row starting off with Lou Bega with his holiday anthem 'Mambo No.5. Vengaboys also hit Number 1 with a their own version of Typically Tropical's 1975 hit Barbados, and just missing out on the Top 10 is Steps with their cover of the Bee Gees 'Tragedy'. Fun fact - The A Side to this single, 'Heartbeat' is on Now 41, which was released a whole 12 months before Now 44. :D Edited July 20, 201410 yr by gavindeejay
July 20, 201410 yr Author Top 10 time :yahoo: 10. Texas - Summer Son (7.28) ((10) Jester, gavindeejay, (2), ultraviolence) I'm happy Texas made it into the Top 10. Great track from the Scottish Band from their album 'The Hush'. 7uIFISklvXY 9. Wamdue Project - King Of My Castle (7.50) ((10), Jade, Jester, Jack, Luciano, (4), Rob S, Ultraviolence) A Number 1 hit from November 1999, 'King Of My Castle' makes it into Buzzjacks Top 10 tracks on Now 44.
