Hey welcome to my Maurice Horan's Songs of My Life Top 40. This chart is based on my favourite songs so far and the songs that inspired me in life.

While i was born in the late 80's the oldest song is from 1964 while the youngest song in my chart is from 2014. I've already put my top 40 on paper (and .PDF) but have not finished the final top 40 yet.

My list is very 90's and 00's inspired and one certain group (which is not the group which is featured in my sig :P) does have lot of entries in my chart.

I do hope you enjoy my chart and please comment.

33. Spice Girls-2 Become 1

 

 

Release:1996

Christmas 1996 i was already a fan of the girls so loving this song wouldn't be that difficult. The bridge sang by Emma is just beautiful.

The Spice Girls were long gone and i really needed my girl group fix,and there was Girls Aloud. No Good advice is such a good track.

 

 

22.One Direction-Best Song Ever

20.Spice Girls-Goodbye

 

 

Release:1998

Geri left a few months earlier for me as a kid and a Spice Girls fan this had a really deed impact at the time. This song also reminds me of the time we were moving to another house at the other side of town, this song was on the radio all the time while moving houses.

 

19.Michael Jackson-Smooth Criminal

 

 

Release:1987

Released in the year i was born, this track is so amazing!

 

18.S Club 7-Reach

 

 

Release:2000

Reach is a such a good pop track. This song makes me really happy and it was released in a time where i hated school and life because of the bullying at school. Music at home was my escape and S Club 7 were a big part of that.

 

17.One Direction-What Makes You Beautiful.

 

 

Release:2011

I actually feel too old to be a fan of this group but when i went to one of their tours i noticed i really don't have to worry. They gave me same spirit and vibe the Spice Girls gave me. I really like Louis in this video.

Release:2002

This song gives me life! It is one of the best pop songs made in the 00's.

 

14.Oasis-Wonderwall

 

 

Release:1995

Now this song takes me back to a dark time in 2005, my mum was in hospital treated for breast cancer. Every day my father,my sister and i went to the hospital and usually we played this song in the car and sang a long with it so we could forget about our troubles and had some fun :)

SYBT was the perfect 2nd single for the Spice Girls i love the groovy R&B feel it has and Emma in the video wow :wub: :heart:

 

11.The Beatles-Here Comes The Sun

 

 

Release:1969

The oldest song in my chart, i love listening to The Beatles but this has to be my favourite track of them. Written and sang by George Harrison this is the best track from the Abbey Road album. I love the spring/summer feeling this track has.

 

10.S Club 7-Bring it All Back

 

 

Release:1999

Tell me who doesn't love this track? This group gave my pop fix in 1999 when the Spice Girls went on a break. I have watched all the series,bought all their albums and dvds and will go to their reunion tour later this year.

 

9.Dire Straits-Brothers in Arms

 

 

Release:1985

Anyone who has watched The West Wing remembers this song being in one of the best scenes of the whole series. It's the closing scene of series 2 which features this song and the scene still gives me chills! What an amazing scene it was and amazing song this is.

4.One Direction-One Thing

 

 

Release:2012

One Thing is one of my favourite song ever! It's a happy uptempo pop song and the video is really great. this song make us forget their awful choice of a 2nd single which not shall be named again.

 

3.Spice Girls-Wannabe

 

 

Release:1996

Wannabe was the first single i bought in my life and i still love the Spice Girls in 2015 almost 19 years later. I loved the song when it was on the radio and i asked my parents to buy the single but they said no <_< . Then i got money from my grandparents for my school results that year and bought the single myself. Since then i'm totally hooked on the girls god knows why i still love them after all these years.

 

2.Queen-Innuendo

 

 

Release:1991

This song is everything! the drums,the guitar solo,the voice of Freddy Mercury. While most people love Bohemian Rhapsody i find this song much better it gives me chills every time i listen to it.

And now it's time for the no.1 in the Maurice Horan's Songs of My Life Top 40:

 

1.Spice Girls-Viva Forever

 

 

Release:1998

The summer of 1998 was the best summer of my life and this song was the anthem of that summer for me.

Geri left the group in May 1998 but still features on this song. It is a song which makes me happy and sad at the same time, happy because it's such a good song sad because it's the last 5 piece Spice Girls single (till Headlines but let's not talk about that song). Even my father who absolutely hates the Spice Girls loves this song and i think a lot non Spice Girls fans do, it's a beautiful ballad and i think if it was released today it still would be a hit because it's such a timeless song.
