    Just got round to starting the 2000 reruns last night. Saving the other two episodes that were on this Friday just gone for next Friday in lieu of the fact there's none on next week because of the cri

'Glorious' by Andreas Johnson lives up to its name, fantastic moody and dramatic rock song.

'Adelante' by Sash! is powerful, I first discovered it when doing the dance number ones of the 00s thread about 8 years ago.

2000 and Oasis are in vogue when England got knocked out of a major tournament.

Fast forward 26 years and nothing has changed.

Great set of episodes tonight, some real forgotten gems amongst them, specifically, Mint Royale and Lauren Laverne, REM, Andreas Johnson and Daphne and Celeste in the first episode, and Fierce and The Tamperer with Maya in the second episode.

Gabrielle "Rise" still such a gorgeous song and deserved number one. I saw her at the O2 Easter weekend last year and I shall see her again next month supporting JLS. One of our finest soul singers by far.

I adore REM’s The Great Beyond. Crazy to think it’s their highest charting single!

Glorious is indeed Glorious as well.

Tis a shame Sash! never managed a #1 but clearly 'Adelante' was never really in contention for it (and it would've been odd to have that as their sole #1 anyway over their bigger 90s hits)

I really like Rise, I think it's definitely Gabrielle's best single. It deserved #1 and it is great to see it increased sales in week two as more people discovered it. I think I probably was one of them.

Both Glorious and The Great Beyond are also really fab singles. I think I bought Andreas Johnson's album as well as the single, sadly it didn't live up to the promise of Glorious.

Glorious is epic, shame he was a one hit wonder here because he sent some great songs to Melodifestivalen later in the decade, and was very close to winning on a couple of occasions. I still follow his music.

Rise is effortlessly good, although I do prefer Out Of Reach overall, that really deserved to be a No.1. She was such a radio darling in 2000 and 2001 with these two songs and When A Woman (plus Dreams still being rinsed).

I liked The Great Beyond too, a great REM single. Adelante less so, not one of my favourites from Sash! And I really disliked Daphne & Celeste. Hammer To The Heart was the weakest Tamperer hit for me, Madonna definitely used the ABBA sample far better.

Quite a nice, well produced cover from Fierce. My mum loved that one and bought their album off the back of it. Girl On TV is so incredibly corny, but has a charm I suppose, but Summer Girls was far better and deserved a higher peak than this.

Don't Falter is really lovely, nice to see the performance of that, it ended up becoming a bit of a cult classic in the end at least.

Hated that second performance of A Little Bit Of Luck with the woman adlibbing over it. At least we have the first performance without it. Impressive longevity for that track.

i had no idea Gabrielle increased in sales 2nd week 👏 , so pleased and surprised this eas a big hit and made the album huge!!
