October 16, 20222 yr I think you gave exactly the right number of points to Give In To Me Jade! My favourite of the 9(!?) singles from the album.
October 16, 20222 yr George michael always great, the remix of spinning the wheel fab, my girl is classic 60s so i didnt vote for it, madonna, salt n pepa, original, jacko are all great singles. Theres some decent stuff just falling short of the 100, and then theres some that i have an aversion to. Gerry Rafferty's single version of Baker Street is a work of art and the greatest recording of all time according to moi. dance covers not really doing it for me..... :)
October 16, 20222 yr You have been loved <3 disappointed it didnt get more votes Easily GM’s best ballad ever and that shouldve been the single attached to Diana’s memory Rather than EJs
October 16, 20222 yr You Have Been Loved is a beautiful song I agree - I do prefer the B side of The Strangest Thing 97 though.
October 16, 20222 yr 'Give In To Me' out :( another of my big pointers out so quick. One of MJ's best from the 1990-1995 period for me.
October 16, 20222 yr Aww it's a shame Spinning The Wheel fell short of the top 100, You Have Been Loved is fantastic too and very nearly made my votes as well but I just didn't have room in the end. Again, all round stunning album from George Michael. Give In To Me is great too.
October 17, 20222 yr 'Lord It's A Feeling' > 'Give In To Me' tbh (but I do like it as well although didn't come particularly close to my votes). A little surprised 'Roll With It' is so low but as a few said already it is good but not really a huge highlight among their discog.
October 17, 20222 yr Author NO 97- 31 POINTS Now That We Found Love Heavy D & The Boyz (Voter: Colm- 3 pts, Mack- 24pts, Dircadirca- 4pts) (#2 for 1 week in July 1991 behind “Everything I Do” by Bryan Adams The chorus may be a cover but it found enough admirers in 1991 and in this rate as we move past the 30 point mark NNEgUPKxk7A
October 17, 20222 yr Author NO 96- 34 POINTS Picture Of You Boyzone (Voter: Gooddelta- 17pts, Narcow- 16pts, Coi- 1pt) 9#2 for 1 week in August 1997 behind “I’ll Be Missing You” by Puff Daddy & Faith Evans) Gooddelta once again the biggest champion of a Boyzone track- but this is the most popular Boyzone #2 hit on Buzzjack! o4BgGAL29S8
October 17, 20222 yr Author NO 95- 35 POINTS I Love Your Smile Shanice (Voter: Riser- 6pts, King Rollo- 6pts, Torple- 23 pts) (#2 for 2 weeks in March 1992 behind “Stay” by Shakespear’s Sister) It took a remix to turn this 1991 flop into a hit! TMmKKp9dcBg
October 17, 20222 yr I know the others I voted for I got ribbed for, maybe fairly, but Picture Of You is a genuinely great, quality pop song, there's a reason it's still played on the radio today. Quite unique TOTP performance for a boyband there. Full live music and vocals, no backing track. Not a cover, and it was co-written by Ronan. Glad it made the top 100 in this. I Love Your Smile was in my top 35 but I had to cut it, it's a joy though!
October 17, 20222 yr Author You'll all notice that everyone's 30 pointer collected points from other voters so congrats all!
October 17, 20222 yr 'I Love Your Smile' will never not make me think of that naff Pixie Lott cover :lol: Still nothing here that was that close to getting points from me but I quite like 'Now That We Found Love' too.
October 17, 20222 yr Actually forgotten what my 30 pointer was now haha #nospoilersevenifiwantedto Whatever it is, at least one other voter likes it enough!
October 17, 20222 yr I'd say those three are all decent but none were particularly close to my votes. Picture Of You was definitely the best Boyzone track in this rate so it's justified that it ranked the highest.
October 18, 20222 yr Author NO 94- 38 POINTS Where Do You Go? No Mercy (Voter: Fiesta- 2pts, Riser- 23 pts, Colm- 4pts, Julian T- 9pts) (#2 for 2 weeks in February 1997 behind “Discotheque” by U2 and “Ain’t Nobody” by LL Cool J) A clone of Everything but the Girl’s “Missing” and intentionally so. Charted higher than the song it aped. f5gGyUp5tzk
October 18, 20222 yr Author NO 93- 39 POINTS Stop The Spice Girls (Voter: Fiesta- 8 pts, West-10pts, Torple- 2pts, Gezza-12pts, Chartjack2- 2pts, Coi- 4pts, Jester- 1pt) )#2 for 1 week in March 1998 behind “It’s Like That” by Run DMC Vs Jason Nevins) Their only song in the first 10 releases to miss No 1, a feat so massive it even made the news when this went in at no 2! Seven voters is a new rate record and the first loss of points for Jester! RuAxGQP7DbE
