Love that Do You See The Light remix - better than the original.

I'd agree with this, I bought it at the time, love it!

Misti Blu is a lovely song, it was on a Hits album. Possibly of interest to soul/dance fans, although the video quality is crap.

The only song I bought in the top 10 was Like A Prayer but I like Round Round, Alone, and up to a point Colourblind and Anyone Of Us. Half A Heart was ok, at least it was a change in sound compared to their other songs which could have easily been by Steps.

The Hear'say single cover always made me laugh, the photographer probably asked them to look brooding but instead got 'pissed off'.

Katy starting off her chart impact 17 years on *. I like Rihanna, Dizzee/Calvin Kid Rock, Verve, Jordin and Noah from this top 10 too and 'Mountains' wasn't one i was particularly keen on at the time but has grown on me over the years.

Some great new entries outside the top 10, really liked that Automatic track in particular and was hopeful it'd do better than that but it does remain their 2nd highest charting single nonetheless.

I'm still disgusted that Kid Rock thing happened.

#8 was '5 Years Time' (and was a good one back then). Interesting moment for Noah And The Whale before their prime album era in 2011.

Edited. Didn't realise I put 'Love Is Noise' twice lol.

Oh, '5 Years Time' is part of the Superman (2025 film) soundtrack. Such good timing!

5 Years Time was catchy but irritating with its 'sun, sun,sun' and 'fun fun fun' chorus

'Disturbia' is great.

'The Man Who Can't Be Moved' is nostalgic too.

'No Air' is a very good song and nostalgic especially Jordin Sparks' voice.

'Crazy World' was a sign of drum and bass's increasing popularity along with Pendulum a few months before going top 10.
