April 27, 201510 yr Author dont recall either of those chart-toppers I must say! Other than that some bleedin classics enter the last 2 charts there: 2 of them will be popchartfreak number ones, and the other one deserved to be - that one was Grace Not Over Yet, which I love more now than I did at the time, and it was fab at the time. One of the key dance tracks of the 90's for me. I pretty much like all of the new entries that I recall (which is all of them, bar Hole, who I generally wasn't predisposed towards...) Both chart toppers are good, though incredibly dated :lol: And agree about Grace, I also like Not Over Yet a lot more now than I did then. :D
April 27, 201510 yr Author w/e 22nd April 1995 * In the fast moving charts of 1995 comes a rather quiet week as just six new entries appear * As a result, Deuce claim an easy second week on top, just ahead of Kingmaker while Grace's often re-released club classic goes top 5 * MC Sar & The Real McCoy score a third consecutive top ten hit 1 (1) Deuce - I Need You 2 (7) Kingmaker - You & I Will Never See Things Eye To Eye 3 (5) Corona - Baby Baby 4 (2) Sox - Go For The Heart 5 (8) Grace - Not Over Yet 6 (3) Tina Arena - Chains 7 (NE) MC Sar & The Real McCoy - Love And Devotion 8 (4) Crash Test Dummies - The Ballad Of Peter Pumpkinhead 9 (6) Human League - One Man In My Heart 10 (9) The Centre - The Centre 11 (10) Those 2 Girls - All I Want 12 (17) Take That - Back For Good 13 (11) Snap! ft Summer - The First The Last Eternity 14 (16) Strike - U Sure Do 15 (26) Love City Groove - Love City Groove 16 (13) Bobby Brown - Two Can Play That Game 17 (25) Lightning Seeds - Marvellous 18 (NE) TLC - Red Light Special 19 (18) Brownstone - If You Love Me 20 (19) Usura - Open Your Mind 21 (15) Alex Party - Don't Give Me Your Life 22 (12) Dionne Farris - I Know 23 (14) Rednex - Old Pop In An Oak 24 (20) Outhere Brothers - Don't Stop (Wiggle Wiggle) 25 (NE) Portishead - Sour Times 26 (22) Mike & The Mechanics - Over My Shoulder 27 (23) Tin Tin Out ft Espiritu - Always Something There To Remind Me 28 (24) Apollo 440 - Don't Fear The Reaper 29 (21) Alysha Warren - I Thought I Meant The World To You 30 (NE) Mark Morrison - Crazy 31 (27) Sophie B Hawkins - As I Lay Me Down 32 (NE) Bryan Adams - Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman 33 (28) Moby - Everytime You Touch Me 34 (30) Boo Radleys - Wake Up Boo 35 (29) Bucketheads - The Bomb (These Sounds Fall Into My Mind) 36 (32) Deuce - Call It Love 37 (33) Sharon Forrester - Love Inside 38 (NE) Boyz II Men - Thank You 39 (36) Junior Reid - Listen To The Voices 40 (31) Luther Vandross - Ain't No Stopping Us Now Leaving: 34 (NE) Mary J Blige - I'm Goin' Down 35 (26) Janet Jackson - Whoops Now/What'll I Do 37 (32) Clock - Axel F 38 (33) Perfecto All Starz - Reach Up (Papa's Got A Brand New Pigbag) 39 (NE) R.E.M - Strange Currencies 40 (NE) Hole - Doll Parts
April 27, 201510 yr I like Deuce (share this # 1 with you, it's screaming Eurovision winner), Samantha Fox (didn't heard before) and Those 2 Girls were # 2 in my chart (behind Shampoo).
April 29, 201510 yr TLC, Portishead and especially the otherwise annoying Mark Morrison are my choices of the new entries, good top 10. Bryan Adams I have a lot of time for, he's great in concert, willing to step into dance music and keep a low profile, and a thoroughly nice bloke - which is why I forgive him for his dirges like this one :lol:
May 1, 201510 yr Author I like Deuce (share this # 1 with you, it's screaming Eurovision winner), Samantha Fox (didn't heard before) and Those 2 Girls were # 2 in my chart (behind Shampoo). Thanks :D Yes, Deuce should have been chosen to represent the UK at that year's Eurovision. I think you'll like the Samantha Fox one. Worth checking out.
May 1, 201510 yr Author TLC, Portishead and especially the otherwise annoying Mark Morrison are my choices of the new entries, good top 10. Bryan Adams I have a lot of time for, he's great in concert, willing to step into dance music and keep a low profile, and a thoroughly nice bloke - which is why I forgive him for his dirges like this one :lol: Thanks John. Agree with you about good ol' Bryan. It's far from his best (surprised it even made my top 40 to be honest). But he was immediately forgiven when I heard Don't Give Up for the first time, and Cloud No.9 to a lesser extent, probably helped by the fact Chicane produced both. :D
May 1, 201510 yr Author w/e 29th April 1995 * First track to get a third week at No.1 this year is the Eurovision winner that never was (probably) * I must have been a fan of MOR back then, as following Mike & The Mechanics into the top ten goes Joshua Kadison * Following big top ten hits with completely forgettable follow ups are MN8 and Scarlet * A Madchester classic gets the first of several remix treatments as Stone Roses enter at No.15 * 1 (1) Deuce - I Need You 2 (7) MC Sar & The Real McCoy - Love And Devotion 3 (2) Kingmaker - You & I Will Never See Things Eye To Eye 4 (14) Strike - U Sure Do 5 (4) Sox - Go For The Heart 6 (3) Corona - Baby Baby 7 (6) Tina Arena - Chains 8 (5) Grace - Not Over Yet 9 (NE) Joshua Kadison - Jessie 10 (8) Crash Test Dummies - The Ballad Of Peter Pumpkinhead 11 (15) Love City Groove - Love City Groove 12 (9) Human League - One Man In My Heart 13 (11) Those 2 Girls - All I Want 14 (12) Take That - Back For Good 15 (NE) Stone Roses - Fool's Gold '95 16 (13) Snap! ft Summer - The First The Last Eternity 17 (16) Bobby Brown - Two Can Play That Game 18 (10) The Centre - The Centre 19 (20) Usura - Open Your Mind 20 (17) Lightning Seeds - Marvellous 21 (NE) Let Loose - Best In Me 22 (NE) MN8 - If You Only Let Me In 23 (21) Alex Party - Don't Give Me Your Life 24 (24) Outhere Brothers - Don't Stop (Wiggle Wiggle) 25 (23) Rednex - Old Pop In An Oak 26 (22) Dionne Farris - I Know 27 (NE) Scarlet - I Wanna Be Free (To Be With Him) 28 (27) Tin Tin Out ft Espiritu - Always Something There To Remind Me 29 (26) Mike & The Mechanics - Over My Shoulder 30 (28) Apollo 440 - Don't Fear The Reaper 31 (31) Sophie B Hawkins - As I Lay Me Down 32 (19) Brownstone - If You Love Me 33 (33) Moby - Everytime You Touch Me 34 (35) Bucketheads - The Bomb (These Sounds Fall Into My Mind) 35 (34) Boo Radleys - Wake Up Boo 36 (18) TLC - Red Light Special 37 (NE) Boyzone - Key To My Life 38 (NE) Del Amitri - Driving With The Brakes On 39 (NE) Prizna ft Demolition Man - Fire 40 (29) Alysha Warren - I Thought I Meant The World To You Goodbye: 25 (NE) Portishead - Sour Times 30 (NE) Mark Morrison - Crazy 32 (NE) Bryan Adams - Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman 36 (32) Deuce - Call It Love 37 (33) Sharon Forrester - Love Inside 38 (NE) Boyz II Men - Thank You 39 (36) Junior Reid - Listen To The Voices 40 (31) Luther Vandross - Ain't No Stopping Us Now
May 10, 201510 yr Author w/e 6th May 1995 * Deuce get a 4th week on top with I Need You - no track will spend longer at No.1 this year * A famous Guiness ad propels Guaglione into the chart, while '84 classic Ain't Nobody enters a couple of places lower, thus beginning the regular habit of old tracks appearing in my chart for no apparent reason whatsoever * Adina Howards freaks her way into the lower reaches of the 40. The track will end up doing much better seven years later thanks to some Sugababes and a Tubeway Army sample 1 (1) Deuce - I Need You 2 (9) Joshua Kadison - Jessie 3 (2) MC Sar & The Real McCoy - Love And Devotion 4 (7) Tina Arena - Chains 5 (3) Kingmaker - You & I Will Never See Things Eye To Eye 6 (5) Sox - Go For The Heart 7 (6) Corona - Baby Baby 8 (4) Strike - U Sure Do 9 (8) Grace - Not Over Yet 10 (10) Crash Test Dummies - The Ballad Of Peter Pumpkinhead 11 (11) Love City Groove - Love City Groove 12 (NE) Mark Oh - Tears Don't Lie 13 (NE) Perez Prez Prado - Guaglione 14 (19) Usura - Open Your Mind 15 (NE) Rufus & Chaka Khan - Ain't Nobody 16 (12) Human League - One Man In My Heart 17 (13) Those 2 Girls - All I Want 18 (15) Stone Roses - Fool's Gold '95 19 (17) Bobby Brown - Two Can Play That Game 20 (16) Snap! ft Summer - The First The Last Eternity 21 (20) Lightning Seeds - Marvellous 22 (NE) Weezer - Buddy Holly 23 (14) Take That - Back For Good 24 (21) Let Loose - Best In Me 25 (NE) Winx - Don't Laugh 26 (NE) Oasis - Some Might Say 27 (24) Outhere Brothers - Don't Stop (Wiggle Wiggle) 28 (18) The Centre - The Centre 29 (37) Boyzone - Key To My Life 30 (NE) Gems For Jem - Lifting Me Higher 31 (NE) Adina Howard - Freak Like Me 32 (23) Alex Party - Don't Give Me Your Life 33 (25) Rednex - Old Pop In An Oak 34 (29) Mike & The Mechanics - Over My Shoulder 35 (NE) Paul Weller - The Changingman 36 (26) Dionne Farris - I Know 37 (NE) Thunder - Castles In The Sand 38 (28) Tin Tin Out ft Espiritu - Always Something There To Remind Me 39 (35) Boo Radleys - Wake Up Boo 40 (NE) Bjork - Army Of Me Farewell: 22 (NE) MN8 - If You Only Let Me In 27 (NE) Scarlet - I Wanna Be Free (To Be With Him) 30 (28) Apollo 440 - Don't Fear The Reaper 31 (31) Sophie B Hawkins - As I Lay Me Down 32 (19) Brownstone - If You Love Me 33 (33) Moby - Everytime You Touch Me 34 (35) Bucketheads - The Bomb (These Sounds Fall Into My Mind) 36 (18) TLC - Red Light Special 38 (NE) Del Amitri - Driving With The Brakes On 39 (NE) Prizna ft Demolition Man - Fire 40 (29) Alysha Warren - I Thought I Meant The World To You
