November 13, 20204 yr poor Sade :/ they're the slowest working band ever with their last 3 albums coming out in 92 (Love Deluxe), 2000 (Lovers rock) and 2010 (Soldier of Love) but still make extraordinary music. OneRepublic have a couple good songs + much better songs given to others, but sure I don't see OneRepublic releasing a song like Halo :o Not the biggest fan of Bee Gees sorry...

November 13, 20204 yr The Corrs were close to getting points from me - I'm just not so keen on their albums post-1999
November 13, 20204 yr Holding back the years? I'm sorry, but I say no to Simply Red. I would like to see much more groups from the 2000s in this countdown tbh. :( I think the only ones were voted by me.
November 13, 20204 yr 'Stars' is a pretty good album but I'm not a huge fan of Simply Red outside of that album and a couple of other singles. I always hated 'Fairground', how it made #1 I'll never know :puke: Atomic Kitten's first album was fun and one I still go back to occasionally, but their murder of 'Eternal Flame' will always remain one of the biggest crimes against music. The Corrs released some pretty good songs in their time, I would have happily seen them a little higher in this countdown.
November 14, 20204 yr I assumed AK would be higher on this site . The corrs were huge for a couple of years !! Stars and A New Flame were huge. Mick has a great voice !
November 14, 20204 yr Fairgrpound was #1 cos it was the first thing Simply Red released after Stars same as why The Corrs-Breathless was #1
November 14, 20204 yr Omg that's a triple whammy for me, love all 3. Forgot to vote for The Corrs but they are brilliant. Simply Red are great too, didn't expect to see them this high And Atomic Kitten had some great songs, Natasha is amazing singer.

November 14, 20204 yr poor Cranberries, personally one of the best bands in the history of music can't believe only 3 people in total voted for them :/
November 14, 20204 yr The Cranberries were great, loved their first three albums. 'Zombie' is hands down one of the best songs released in the 90s :wub: N*Sync were a poor man's Backstreet Boys and I only really liked a couple of their singles (basically anything written by Max Martin!)
November 14, 20204 yr Much love for most of Foals' discography, haven't personally been into their last 2 albums as much save for a couple of highlight songs (but that seems to be just me as the critics love them as much if not more than ever). Their best song wasn't a chart hit though - the glorious 'Spanish Sahara' :wub: 'My Number' is a decent enough track to be their biggest hit although also far from their best (I prefer both of their other top 40 hits).

November 15, 20204 yr love Eurythmics, so many classics. Aerosmith also have a few great songs, but for me that Armageddon song was a career low
November 15, 20204 yr The Cranberries are great, from the songs I've heard. I need to have a listen to more of their stuff. NSync had some good ones. Don't know much about Foals. Eurythmics are fantastic, another one I forgot to vote for. I loved MCRs first album but not much after that. Aerosmith one of the all time greats. And one of my highest rated ones. Definitely one of my best ever rock bands. Would have liked to see them top 50.
November 15, 20204 yr A while since the votes now so unsure if I left Foals out due to 1) forgetting 2) not considering them on the basis I didn't think they'd been in the top 40 3) deciding to rank below 30 because I find them a bit more meh with every release
