What are your favourite songs/albums of that era? :dance:

 

Just realised I can't post youtube links so I had to remove all of them

 

There was that many number ones a year by 2000 there wasn’t enough room for them!

 

Wonder if Kylie has had more airplay or made more money from the B-Side ‘Santa Baby’ than ‘These Days’?

I'm not sure she's made more money from it, 'Santa Baby' is a cover whereas she has a writing credit on 'Please Stay' and it's part of an album which has shifted half a million.

Hollier, Victoria Beckham, Mel C :cheeseblock:

 

Three brilliant no.1s! Best year for music, except Westshite, EVER!

Your daily reminder that Out Of Your Mind wasn’t a no.1 and for that we’re all thankful.

Yeh true to be fair but suppose ‘Santa Baby’ gets more airplay now which is what I was trying to say.00

Santa Baby re-entered the charts in 2007, 2011, 2012, 2015 and every year since 2017, so I'd say it's more successful now than in 2000. Even more successful than the A Side 'Please Stay', I'd say, since 'Santa Baby' has become one of them Christmas songs we play every year pretty much.

I still don't get what people actually liked about them; same with Boyzone. I can understand liking 5ive, Backstreet Boys or *NSYNC even a1, but going mad for generic cheesy ballads of Westlife and Boyzone is beyond my comprehension.

It’s taken over from Madonna and Eartha Kitt this century!
