October 13, 20213 yr I prefer 'Setting Sun' as well (it was inspired by The Beatles 'Tomorrow Never Knows' so catnip for me lol) but can't go wrong with them in general really
October 13, 20213 yr Author NO 57- 100 POINTS Feel It Tamperer (Voter: JackJones- 19 points, Garyfeld- 13 points, xajnipi- 10 points, Shoat- 13 points, Just Jack- 20 points, Dan::G- 19 points, Dircadirca- 6 points)- #1 for 1 week in May 1998 Sampling the Jacksons all the way to top but what is she gonna look like with a chimney on her?..... yxZGjXqRpBo

October 13, 20213 yr Definitely team Setting Sun, but Block Rockin' Beats is glorious too, I will genuinely go beserk in any setting when hearing it, it's impossible not to x I Will Always Love You was my birthday number 1, I've got a soft spot for it even if I am aware it's difficult to defend musically, but if you're gonna do a cheesy power ballad, you may as well go all out x
October 13, 20213 yr Not many Christmas Number Ones left then - just 2 I believe (or 1 1/2 really). As for the ones just revealed, I Will Always Love You is the worst ever 10+ week Number 1 in my opinion. It’s so overblown and has no flow to it. Stay Another Day on the other hand is brilliant, but slightly suffers from the overplay affecting many Christmas associated songs.
October 14, 20213 yr Glad I have never experienced overplaying of Stay Another Day. I still love it. Edited October 14, 20213 yr by Colm
October 14, 20213 yr Stay Another Day is a great song until very recently I never even considered it a Xmas song

October 14, 20213 yr Author Tomorrow the top 50 will be revealed and we'll have a recap of how you're all doing!
October 14, 20213 yr So close to not losing another one outside the top 50! Pray is fantastic though.
October 14, 20213 yr oh wow Chesney finished quite high! bit of a guilty pleasure but great pop song anyway I recently learnt The Only and One also did very well in the US, peaking at #10
October 14, 20213 yr Stay Another Day is great, one of my favourite among the regular Christmas lot. Although of course originally it was nothing whatsoever to do with Christmas if you read about the real subject matter. Living On My Own is something that never actually properly stuck with me until a few years ago when I heard it and suddenly recognised it for the Freddie masterpiece that it is. Pray is mid-tier Take That for me, not their best or worst.
October 15, 20213 yr The One and Only is a great pop song and the video is very fun to watch. :D I was expecting Pray to be the highest Take That number 1 single here. :o I think I'm doing very bad, there isn't so much for me still to come, but I'm not surprised. :(
