March 16, 200619 yr i was proud that so far both my no1s of the year came out as the no1 of the year but hardly anyone seems to be voting eagle eyed cherry...in fact theres no clear leaders having a brief scan thru
March 16, 200619 yr Author It is so tight unlike 1997. I have had 25 votes (across two sites) & just 44 points separates the Top10. While the record I thought would run away with 1998 Record Of The Year is languishing in 17th place 74 points off the lead!
March 16, 200619 yr 1. Spice Girls - Viva Forever 2. Steps - One For Sorrow 3. Natalie Imbruglia - Big Mistake 4. Catatonia - Road Rage 5. Brandy & Monica - The Boy Is Mine 6. Madonna - Frozen 7. Shania Twain - You're Still The One 8. B*Witched - C'est La Vie 9. Spice Girls - Goodbye 10. Leann Rimes - How Do I Live 11. Celine Dion - My Heart Will Go On 12. Bryan Adams & Mel C - When You're Gone 13. All Saints - Under The Bridge 14. Robbie Williams - Angels 15. Aqua - Dr Jones 16. Alanis - Thank You 17. Pras Michael ft Mya - Ghetto Superstar 18. Areosmith - I Dont Wanna Miss A Thing 19. Boyzone - No Matter What 20. Manics - If You Tolerate This omg that was so hard - i adore every song in my top 20
March 16, 200619 yr Author No.1s not included from 1998 are: Spice Girls - Too Much; Oasis - All Around The World; Usher - You Make Me Wanna; Boyzone - All That I Need; Aqua - Turn Back Time; Billie - Because We Want To; All Saints - Bootie Call; Melanie B ft Missy Elliott - I Want You Back; B*Witched - Rollercoaster; Billie - Girlfriend; Spacedust - Gym & Tonic; B*Witched - To You I Belong. While Various - Perfect Day & All Saints - Never Ever were included in 1997 & Skinner, Baddiel & Lightning Seeds - Three Lions was included in the 1996 poll. As I said before I have included the Top20 Best Sellers & 30 other tracks that best represent the year across different genres of music. Without giving the game away - 2 songs that failed to go Top10 are currently in the Play-offs or better places because they are now regarded as classics ahead of many forgotten chartoppers from this year.:lol:
