Posted December 30, 20222 yr XAi3VTSdTxU UK Chart Run: 1-1-1-1-1-1-2-5-10-19-26-38-16-29-38-48-75-X-34-X-38-33-39-60 (22 weeks) Fifth position goes to MJ's other entry in this round! The epic, thought-provoking single was the follow up to You Are Not Alone from HIStory and was a huge commercial success in the UK, becoming his longest-running #1 single ever and snatching the Christmas #1 for 1995 to boot. Like much of his popular back catalogue, it re-entered the top 40 in both 2006 and 2009 for reasons previously highlighted. Final 4 time! Pledge your (dis)allegiance.
December 30, 20222 yr Yay, we weeded out all the crap! Love all of these, but gonna go with Wonderwall because overplay has tainted it ever so slightly compared to the rest.
December 30, 20222 yr Aw 'Earth Song' is so epic for me :( I'm pleased it made the top 5 though somehow as it did get unfairly picked on. I do get the saviour complex as to why others seemingly hate it for though but that didn't really matter to me so much. 'Back For Good' it does have some memories of being one of those first songs I heard frequently when I was like 3 lol but I've never massively been a fan. It seems to be the more likely to be voted out over 'Wonderwall' which we all know will probably make the top 2! 'Missing' v 'Gangsta's Paradise' top 2 for me it would be but I'm not super massive on either of them. They are great but nothing incredible!
December 30, 20222 yr Fantastic Top 4! I’ve very very reluctantly voted for Gangsta’s Paradise (and I gave that 15 points in the Best #1 of the 90s rate so that shows just how much I love all 4).
December 30, 20222 yr I'm going for Back For Good now. It's one of Take That's better songs but not as good as the other three.
December 30, 20222 yr It's close between Take That and Everything But The Girl for me, voted for Take That though.
December 30, 20222 yr 'Missing' again. I don't care for 90s Take That in general but 'Back For Good' is an exception <3
December 30, 20222 yr I like all 4 of these now but it's Back For Good that I enjoy less than the others.
December 31, 20222 yr Strong final four, the correct songs got to this stage. Gone for Take That now.
