Ahhhh! I lost a point :(

 

Ironically with Stop! :lol:

NO 92- 41 POINTS

When You Tell Me That You Love Me Diana Ross (Voter: Narcow- 9pts, Leonardo- 12pts, Coi-20pts)

 

(#2 for 2 weeks in December 1992 behind “Don’t let the sun go down on me” by George Michael & Elton John and “Bohemian Rhapsody/ These are the days of our lives” by Queen)

 

 

A surprise No 2 at Christmas which is as near as she got to No 1 in the decade. Let’s not mention that cover eh….

 

Both of the first two are decent especially 'Stop'.

I hate that No Mercy track, it’s aged so badly. I also do not hear Missing in it all

Where Do You Go is catchy, a lot of early 00s Eurovision entries sounded like this track with the Euro meets Latin flavour.

 

Surprised Stop is out this early, it wasn't too far off my points but is a Spice classic, they had far worse that got to No.1.

 

Not a fan of the Diana Ross song, either the original or the Westlife version.

Maybe this helps? The backing track (in the verses) used is basically the same for both songs.

Is that just No Mercy just doing a cover of Missing though?

'Stop' is good fun but couldn't quite squeeze it in

Same riff as Missing but otherwise a different song. And I like it a lot.

Was the Diana Ross single an original or a cover?

It's an original! Surprised it's dropped out this early.

NO 91- 41 POINTS

 

Heal The World Michael Jackson (Voter: Riser- 1pt, Mack- 20pts, Narcow- 18pts, Popchartfreak- 2pts)

 

(#2 for 5 weeks in December 1992 and January 1993 behind “I will always love you” by Whitney Houston)

 

 

Imagine a world without Whitney- this would have been a five week festive chart topper! Also our favourite MJ 90s #2.

 

 

 

NO 90- 42 POINTS

Hush Kula Shaker (Voter: Rabbitfurcoat- 17pts, Fiesta- 25 pts)

 

(#2 for 1 week in March 1997 behind “Don’t Speak” by No Doubt)

 

 

Here’s Kula Shaker’s preferred No 2 hit according to you lot

 

NO 89- 42 POINTS

 

Please Forgive Me Bryan Adams (Voter: Riser- 17pts, Narcow- 25pts)

 

(#2 for 3 weeks in November 1993 behind “I’d Do Anything for love” by Meat Loaf)

 

 

And Bryan Adams leaves the rate too- a song that did better than I expected!

 

Kula Shaker's cover is great... the other two songs are awful.

Heal the World is dreadful - so saccharine.

Agreed. Hush was in my shortlist, the other two nowhere near, amazed they've made the top 100.

Not a fan of Hush at all.

I don't mind 'Heal The World' personally but he has better ballads.

Has anyone lost a 30 pointer yet?
