We'll start getting rid of people's points tomorrow....

Old Before I Die was the only one I considered giving points to in the last batch!

Oh I'm quite shocked no one voted for 'S Club Party', a fun nostalgia song indeed. Same to a lesser extent for 'If You Ever' and 'What I Am'.

If You Ever was the closest of those to my votes and actually a late cut tbh. I really like that one so shame it got zero points.

Same! That was the only one on my shortlist, otherwise no big losses. I agree with Bray though that I expected at least one person to vote for What I Am and S Club Party.

Im the opposite, S Club Party is terrible if you cancel the nostalgia factor, which I don't have, so good riddance :)

Poor Robbie, they were decent, so were Will Smith's and Fugees - none of them were GREAT though, so I guess that's why they flopped. I don't have the nostalgia factor for S Club 7 either, but I still like S Club Party. Not enough to vote for it over better tracks, obv, but everything is relative :D

No great losses in that second tranche, but slightly surprised to see that Two In A Million picked up points while S Club Party didn't.

NO 152- 1 POINT

 

Tequila Terrorvision (Voter: Popchartfreak)

 

(#2 for 1 week in January 1999 behind “Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)" by Offspring)

 

 

It makes them happy- you less so it appears

 

Two In A Million S Club 7 (Voter: Gooddelta)

 

(#2 for1 week in December 1999 behind “I Have A Dream/ Seasons In The Sun” by Westlife)

 

 

S club bow out of the rate collecting a point between three entries

 

NO 149- 2 POINTS

 

Turn It Up/ Fire It Up Busta Rhymes (Voter: West)

(#2 for 2 weeks in April 1998 behind “it’s Like That” by Run DMC Vs Jason Nevins)

 

 

A surprise at the time- the “Knightrider” theme helped no doubt.

 

Witch Doctor Cartoons (Voter: Narcow)

 

(#2 for 1 week in April 1999 behind “Flat Beat” by Mr Oizo)

 

 

This collecting some points is quite…something

 

Ooh La La Wiseguys (Voter: Jimwatts)

 

(#2 for 1 week in June 1999 behind “Sweet Like Chocolate” by Shanks & Bogfoot)

 

 

The power of the advert strikes again with this getting a re-issue and a new peak.

 

Aww, I've always liked Two In A Million but knew I'd be the only one to give it anything so wanted to throw it something. There's

that I listen to a lot, strings in pop songs will always win me over.

 

I don't like any of those others there particularly, though Tequila, Witch Doctor and Ooh La La all bring back vivid memories of 1999.

Now I do quite like the Wiseguys but Ooh La La wasn't my fave of theirs, that would probably be Start the Commotion I think. I did like their sound though, no too dissimilar to Beastie Boys or Propellerheads at the time. I also bought Busta Rhymes but it was definitely just about the Knightrider sample.

Wondered if I'd be the only voter for Ooh La La - memories of 1999 most definitely but one I still play sometimes. I think everything else I voted for will have other voters, but we'll see.

I suspect there are a couple of others I'll be the only voter for as I'm presuming Last Dreamer didn't vote (going by Better Best Forgotten's failure to score and the 1 point total for all of S Club's output and Witch Doctor).

I'm not convinced there will be any that I voted for that nobody else did. Generally speaking I think the well regarded tracks from the 90s are popular still for very good reason

'Two In A Million' is another one I almost pointed with 'S Club Party' but fell victim to not enough spaces.

 

I do like 'Witch Doctor' in a guilty pleasure way but understand why it can be hated too :lol:

 

 

 

'Witch Doctor' and 'Ooh La La' were both very close to my points! (though the latter is one I needed the recap to know what it was from the title, as I didn't know the artist - I'd have guessed it was a Groove Armada song).

 

I think there's only one song in my 30 that might possibly have been only me voting for it (but I have no idea what to expect from it really lol, for all I know it might have lots of fans)

Pleasently surprised i’m not the only one who voted for my one pointer.

 

No real losses there. S Club 7 has huge nostalgia value again although even then I don’t think its one of their best and Tequila and Ooo La La are both decent too but weren’t close to making my list.

'Tequila' is my favourite of that bunch.

 

Just looked over my votes and I think my 9 pointer is most likely to be something that only I voted for, but we'll see.

The only one left I like is Two In A Million but even so it was very far away from my votes.

I could have voted in S Club Juniors if their 3 number 2 singles had been number 2 in the 90s though. :lol: :wub:
