Another good batch there. Pulp with a classic, albeit one I chose not to vote for. U2 with a great soundtrack single, really captured the spirit of the film and was all round epic... and Big Mistake which is okay but far from being a Nat favourite of mine (that titled is reserved for her fab cover of Instant Crush)

Not me just voting disproportionately for the stuff that is a slightly bigger deal in my neck of the woods (U2 were #1 for 6 weeks!)

kinda like both Big Mistake and Mis-Shapes, the U2 song not a big fan

"It's great but they have better" x3 on those

U2 was a great track, I bought that CD, the other 2 were fine maybe a bit flattered overall

It needed the rap removed for the UK release after Pete Waterman thought it wouldn’t work with it in there.

 

 

Jump is a banger and was close to my votes. For me Get Ready For This and Twilight Zone are on a similar level and that placing’s about right for the former but the latter didn’t deserve to crash out with 0. Never really got into The Launch.

I'll always remember that epic Honey G performance of Kriss Kross Jump on X Factor. :lol: :wub: I wonder if Kriss and Kross are respectable gentlemen now. :P

 

I forgot to vote for Get Ready For This :o Such an energectic dance classic! I've never been a fan of The Launch though.

One of them has sadly passed away now hasn’t he?

Yes, I didn't know. According to Wikipedia Chris Kelly died of a drug overdose on May 1, 2013. :(

not a fan of any of those 3

I'm not big on them either. I did buy The Launch at the time but I don't think it's one of the better dance tracks from the period.

I still quite like The Launch, but its not really a classic dance song given there were so many around in late 99.

IT'S WIGGETY WIGGETY WACK *___*

 

Get Ready for This is my favourite from 2 Unlimited, very basic head banging music but impossible not to dance to.

Aww, although I half expected to be the only voter for The Launch, it doesn't seem to be a well remembered or loved 90s dance song generally.

So did I! Glad it managed a top 75 finish here, it's a great tune.

I like The Launch but there were a lot of 1999 #2s in contention for me!

Gave The Launch a vote because it reminds me of working in my first job in 1999 they played it on r1 a lot.

 

Strange this was given a play on TOTP when at no8 but guess songs peaked early by this stage!
