Sunday at 22:064 days Oops at Ronan, I did hear about that at the time, and that Five should not have had a No.1 with this. I take it the sales of that disqualified CD were excluded from its overall total too?Try Again is such a classic, it sounded like the future looking back! An early taste of that Timbaland production sound of the early 00s a few years before anyone else did it. Aaliayah <3Lovely to see a performance for When I Said Goodbye with a live vocal, it is a lovely ballad and underrated.I'll Never Stop did surprisingly badly, but then it had such a poor video and little promo. It's not as good as Bye Bye Bye, but isn't bad, I enjoyed hearing it again. Shame we didn't hear I Turn To You by Christina Aguilera down at No.19, I know it flopped but I absolutely adore this and she put a great vocal in on it.Shout out to No.29 on the first week, Chicane's absolutely gorgeous No Ordinary Morning, this deserved to be a much bigger hit, but isn't very commercial so I see why it wasn't.We Will Rock You was my least favourite No.1 of the year, as covered in my No.1s rank last year. It didn't suit Five much, particularly Ritchie who had a large part on the song. The single remix with Queen was at least better than the underbaked version on their album though.Amazing looking back that 2 Faced by Louise got to No.3 as it's all but completely forgotten now (apart from by British pop fans of a certain vintage). It's quite a unique track and the 'hi girls, hi Louise' intro is unforgettable. Two great entries in the top ten for Destiny's Child and Savage Garden too, songs I still listen to a lot now, with very deep lyrics for a pop song for the latter which I remember we used to discuss at school.Sing-a-Long was a bit limp from Shanks & Bigfoot, and isn't on Spotify, I don't know why it didn't land because Sweet Like Chocolate was cutesy too but had better execution.Another week, another unfortunate flop at No.29, this time Cleopatra's comeback single Come and Get Me, which was good and deserved top 20!
