November 27, 2025Nov 27 That Jagged Edge song didn’t chart here at all. It sounds like it samples It’s Like That. Quite a fun crunk but going with 21 Seconds, various lyrics of which are still always in my head to this day. That was a very unique song to reach the top here.
November 27, 2025Nov 27 Author Jagged Edge for me. It was a constant around my first year of high school.I never realised it wasn't released in the UK.I think this is the remix though, that samples It's Like That. The remix was the one all over radio and TV.Here's the original:
November 27, 2025Nov 27 Author Also just checked Wikipedia to make sure my memory was correct. It was the remix is what was pushed here. This is the tracklist from the single release in 2001, which I think was more than 1 year after the US release."Let's Get Married" (Remarqable remix featuring Run)"Promise" (Cool JD remix featuring Loon)"Let's Get Married""Promise""Promise" (Speakeasy extended remix)
November 27, 2025Nov 27 I've never liked 21 Seconds that much, and I've always felt Let's Get Married is a bit, shame it didn't get released here. Reminds me of 112's Dance With Me which was also big in Australia in 2002 but never got a proper release here (another bop). I always feel like making a thread of my favourite songs that never got a release in the UK (there's obviously loads!)
