yep, as well as 'Voodoo Child' I remember 'Way To Go', 'Watching You' and 'I Never Liked You' all of which were top 10s in Australia.

 

I also liked their song 'In Love Again' but that never charted (though looking at wikipedia I see it did chart at #20 in the Australian digital tracks chart, so maybe it was disqualified for not having a physical release)

 

God they had that annoying physical rule in Australia too. :lol:

 

I might have to check out some of their other songs because I've always enjoyed Voodoo Child.

2nd Highest Hit: N/A

 

 

Comment: I didn't know this by Axwell & Steve Angello. :o Now I only know this from that Sofa advert. Great sample in this song.

Rating: 7.5/10

 

 

 

Paris Hilton - Stars Are Blind

 

Peak: 05

Chart Run: 35-5-6-16-19-25-39-59-76-88 (10 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: Nothing In This World (#55)

 

 

Comment: I was expecting this to be a proper horrible mess going into it but shockingly, it's actually quite nice. I certainly wasn't imagining it to be so reggae. This holds up better than quite a lot of other songs from 10 years ago.

Rating: 8/10

 

 

 

Edit: I've been obsessed with this over the past week. Now I'm finding it an easy 10/10 moment.

2nd Highest Hit: N/A

 

 

Comment: This is terrible. I'm finding it really annoying and tuneless.

Chamillionaire ft Krayzie Bone - Ridin'

 

Peak: 02

Chart Run: 19-2-3-6-10-14-15-22-26-24-32-41-57-54-49-57-67-79-88-87-69 (21 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: Grown And Sexy (#35)

 

 

Comment: Chamillionaire really is the definitive one hit wonder. He is currently worth $15 million and that's certainly due to this song. This is one of my all-time most played songs, I still listen to it very regularly. The 'Weird Al' parody this is now just as iconic as the original.

Mickey Modelle vs Jessy - Dancing In The Dark

2nd Highest Hit: Over You (#35)

 

 

Comment: The vocals sound really odd on this like they were not meant for this song. It's a pretty poor song anyway.

Maria Lawson - Sleepwalking

 

Peak: 20

Chart Run: 90-20-34-52-94 (5 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: N/A

 

 

Comment: I used to love X Factor but I don't remember Maria at all. On one listen, this song is pleasant but très forgettable.

Cast Of High School Musical - Breaking Free

 

Peak: 09

Chart Run: 45-9-14-17-22-24-33-35-32-34-41-46-58-58-52-37-57-55-69-81-100 (21 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: We're All In This Together (#40)

 

 

Comment: I've only seen one of these films (no idea which one) as a 'treat' while at primary school but I'm still quite familiar with its music. We're All In This Together is better but I'll give this an extra 1 point because Vanessa Hudgens is great.

David Hasselhoff - Jump In My Car

 

Peak: 03

Chart Run: 3-10-27-49-87 (5 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: If I Could Say Goodbye (#35)

 

 

Comment: Major guilty pleasure alert. Since I first heard this I've thought it perfectly sums up the phrase 'so bad it's good'. No idea how this reached the top 3 but I'm so glad it did. "Annoyed that the video is not available to watch in your country".

Bodyrox ft Luciana - Yeah Yeah

 

Peak: 02

2nd Highest Hit: What Planet You On (#54)

 

 

Comment: I used to really like this song. It was around the time when I used to collect Now! albums and I remember this being one of the better ones on its disc. Bodyrox later went on to be a part of N-Dubz's worst single.

2nd Highest Hit: Can't Change Me (#62)

 

 

Comment: Very different for a Bond theme and certainly more interesting than Writing's On The Wall. Maybe because it's coming straight after LazyTown but I'm really enjoying this song.

Andy Abraham ft Michael Underwood - December Brings Me Back To You

 

Peak: 18

Chart Run: 18-26 (2 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: Hang Up (#63)

 

 

Comment: This is pretty decent from Andy the Bin man. Much better than his Eurovision entry. Shame that you don't hear this every Christmas as it's much better than some of the awful ones they always have on the music channels.

Comment: Oh my God this really is an anthem of my youth. I had completely forgotten about this track. I never know who made this, never mind that it actually samples Eddie Murphy. :o

2nd Highest Hit: On An Island & Smile (#72)

 

 

Comment: Not much of a fan of this. I've never heard the original but I guess it's not much different. Nice to see David Bowie on this live version though.

And with that 2006 is done.

2007

Junior Jack not included as he had a hit under a different name.

Comment: This is quite easily one of my favourite dance songs of the 00's. Princess Superstar's verses are spot on and the chorus is too infectious. Great way to start 2007.

The Good, The Bad & The Queen - Kingdom Of Doom

 

Peak: 20

Chart Run: 20-44-95 (3 weeks)

2nd Highest Hit: Herculean (#22)

 

 

Comment: This is not a Damon Albarn classic. A little bit dreary and dull. On a positive note, it's short so it never outdid its welcome.
