October 21, 20213 yr A Little Time is gorgeous and one of the few great duets. I said before that My Heart Will Go On is probably my least favourite thing in the Top 50, but clearly those who love it really love it! Killing Me Softly is a fantastic cover, but I’ve always preferred Ready Or Not which I gave a very high score.
October 21, 20213 yr Don’t care if it’s soppy ‘Heart will go on’ is a great pop ballad and great film! Fugees, what’s a song ❤️ You forget just how great songwriters all the members of The Beautiful South are!
October 22, 20213 yr poor Fugees, I feel like both their songs underperformed a bit, was expecting them to be much higher, even top 10 A Little Time is nice enough, I remember it was quite a surprise #1 back in the day surprised My Heart Will Go On did so well but looks like the people that like it, like it very much :o
October 22, 20213 yr I didn't really like A Little Time until years afterwards. My Heart Will Go On is fine. It never really irritated me.
October 22, 20213 yr A Little Time is lovely, Celine is pretty good and The Fugees is OK - I prefer t'other Fugees chart-topper, and this one got annoying very quickly in comparison to the wonderful Roberta Flack's version, which never does get annoying.
October 22, 20213 yr A Little Time is ok but the girl's voice is more childish than Rebecca Black's. :D I'm celebrating 2 of my 3 least faves went out yesterday. Bye Fugees and My Heart Will Go On. Better late than never. :cheer: Shame the other Celine Dion song is still to come but it's less annoying than MHWGO imo.

October 22, 20213 yr 2 great songs that I didn’t quite vote for there. Some Might Say would definitely be in my Oasis Top 5. Dreamer reminds me of Don’t Give Me Your Life by Alex Party which I would have given a high score but it peaked at #2. I find it pretty hard to call what’s going to be in the Top 10!
October 22, 20213 yr Two big losses of mine there! Dreamer sounds just as infectious as it did in the 90s, though I'm really surprised some of the even cheesier dance tunes I may have given fewer points to are still to come. Some Might Say is probably my favourite Oasis song - the guitar, melody, verses and fearlessness of the whole thing more than make up for any of the shortcomings of the lyrics in the chorus.
October 22, 20213 yr Some Might Say/Dreamer was a fantastic pair of number 1s, the Oasis number 1s are definitely in the right order here x
October 22, 20213 yr Author As it's Friday have another one! NO 30- 164 POINTS Mr Vain Culture Beat (Voter: Mango- 22 points, Jimwatts- 18 points, Chez Wombat- 10 points, JackJones- 24 points, Jason- 18 points, Riser- 2 points, Hide&Seek- 16 points, DarrenJ77- 25 points, Just Jack- 17 points, Colm- 12 points)- #1 for 4 weeks in August/ September 1993 Buzzjack’s favourite chart topper of 1993 turns out to be this one! kxpVdRtTnsw
October 22, 20213 yr I'm really surprised some of the even cheesier dance tunes I may have given fewer points to are still to come. As I was saying...
October 22, 20213 yr I'm really surprised that Think Twice has made the top 30, I don't think I would've expected that to be popular on here at all. Having said that, it's still an okay song in what has turned out to be a great top 30.
