Pop groups were really rinsing out the cover versions this year I had never listened to Atomic Kitten's 'Eternal Flame' before but I know 'Whole Again' and the original 'Eternal Flame' so I basically already knew it back to front ~ Credit to Steps' 'Chain Reaction' for having a lot of life in it.

 

In fact, I count 14 covers in the list altogether (DJ Ötzi, Westlife, Geri, Christina/etc, Atomic Kitten, Bob The Builder, Robbie/Nicole, Alien Ant Farm, Steps, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Blue, Toploader, Brandy, Wheatus) :o Plus some prominent samples ('Angel', 'Bootylicious', 'Butterfly', *checks Wikipedia* 'Another Chance', and maybe more?).

 

+20: Limp Bizkit - Rollin' (Air Raid Vehicle)

+19: Rui Da Silva feat. Cassandra - Touch Me

+18: Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood

+17: Kylie Minogue - Can't Get You Out Of My Head

+16: Ian van Dahl feat. Marsha - Castles In The Sky

+15: iiO - Rapture

+14: PPK - ResuRection

+13: Roger Sanchez - Another Chance

+12: Crazy Town - Butterfly

+11: Mary J. Blige - Family Affair

+10: OPM - Heaven Is A Halfpipe

+9: Alien Ant Farm - Smooth Criminal

+8: Wheatus - Teenage Dirtbag

+7: So Solid Crew - 21 Seconds

+6: Eve feat. Gwen Stefani - Let Me Blow Ya Mind

+5: Wyclef Jean - Perfect Gentleman (I specifically remember discovering this when Usher's 'I Don't Mind' debuted in the top 10 and someone in the chart show thread compared it to this; they've remained forever linked in my mind)

+4: Nelly feat. City Spud - Ride Wit Me

+3: Mis-Teeq - All I Want

+2: Blue - All Rise

+1: Jakatta - American Dream

 

21. Daniel Bedingfield - Gotta Get Thru This

22. Toploader - Dancing In The Moonlight

23. OutKast -

24. Stereophonics - Mr. Writer (hadn't heard this before and was very impressed because I recall really disliking 'Have A Nice Day' when I heard it once)

25. Destiny's Child - Bootylicious

26. D12 - Purple Pills

27. Mis-Teeq - One Night Stand

28. Afroman - Because I Got High

29. Janet Jackson - All For You

30. Missy Elliott - Get Ur Freak On

 

I really like this list now that I've picked out my favourites. It's pretty interesting too seeing how the songs stack up in the year-end charts as, despite obviously not being new information, I've never looked at them a fraction as much as peaks and chart runs. Below #75, my main disappointment was that 'Last Resort' was only #95 - it was the first thing I checked when I saw the 2000 thread, because I knew it was a #3 hit and charted in either 2000 or 2001. Probably my most played non-new song of the last 6 months after I happened to return to it a few years after not having much of an opinion on it. Poor 'Case Of The Ex' and 'Played-A-Live' being pretty close to the top 100.
