Had a listen to 'Poison' just in case, but the seismic impact of 'Stan' in the context of 2000 remains unchallenged.

'Stan' clearly but 'Poison' is okay too.

Bardot! Although they couldn't have had much tougher competition could they. Obviously Stan is brilliant and a classic.

From my favourite girlband album, such a good debut single, I was gutted when it missed the top 40 narrowly here (meaning I couldn't even send them to the 00s one hit wonders Bop Idol, and they have a lot of great songs that deserve to be shared).

They screened Popstars Australia on SMTV here, so it was great that we got to see the band being formed but it's sad they didn't have much of an impact, although they at least charted unlike Irish winners Six (Popstars Ireland and Nadine's passportgate was also screened here).

Bardot for me.

I appreciate what pop culture impact Stan had and I recall it being everywhere at the end of 2000 start of 2001, but for me it's Poison. The first Australian Popstars and arguably the best of the two groups from the show. (The other formed in the 2001 version). Popstars was the talk of the playground at school, on all the music magazine covers the tv guides. It's was everywhere in a time before social media.

Stanley.

Stan on this one.

I remember all the talk of "can Bardot match Hear'Say" when they released 'Poison' here and then it missed the top 40!

Not a poison stan.

To be fair to Bardot, Hear’Say couldn’t match them in Australia. Pure & Simple peaked at #72 on the Australian Singles Chart in 2001.

I guess it goes to show both both winners didn’t weren’t able to cross over.

Eminem and Dido.

Eminem.

Stan the man!

Without an question 'Stan' for me.
