Posted December 17, 200717 yr So hard to beleive this was that long ago!!! 1 - Robbie Williams and Nicole Kidman - SOMETHING STUPID 1BdiAQmEaf0 {1}-1-1-3-12-21-33-31-31-35-44-57 Really didn't like this. 02 - Daniel Bedingfield - GOTTA GET THRU THIS b4eMyOzD9UI {1}-1-2-3-2-1-3-6-13-11-13-22-27-39-45-55-54-54 Sounded okay at the time, now is rather boring. 03 - Sophie Ellis Bextor - MURDER ON THE DANCEFLOOR 2_Nsi05HkXw {2}-3-4-4-2-7-11-16-16-16-21-25-36-48-60-61 Quite liked this back in the day, but wouldn't bother now. 04 - Stereophonics - HANDBAGS AND GLADRAGS d1UzVjJvhFw {4}-4-5-5-5-10-13-20-18-21-28-35-43-57-X-X-72 UGH!, what were they thinking?. 05 - Ian Van Dahl - WILL I? HqUMohpAvAs {5}-7-6-7-14-20-28-29-28-41-53-59-74 Boring dance fodder 06 - Samantha Mumba - LATELY ms1EOZdJt7s {6}-8-8-6-15-18-26-28-30-44-64-61 Deary 07 - S Club 7 - HAVE YOU EVER 8FR0SBQd4X4 {1}-2-3-7-6-7-9-23-35-56-45-37-46-61 Typical teenybop-sugar-pop 08 - PPK - RESURECTION gYPTgJbfJZ8 {3}-6-8-12-11-11-19-25-34-32-32-43-60-62-71 Not bad for a dance song :). 09 - Tweenies - I BELIEVE IN CHRISTMAS NO COMMENT!!! {9}-9-9-12-33-62 10 - Hermes House Band - COUNTRY ROADS Same as above! {7}-10-10-10-10-20-27-38-39-38-50-69 11 - Kate Winslet - WHAT IF 9-HESjOTHBQ {6}-8-11-11-9-8-16-17-25-25-23-32-47-60 Not bad I guess, I remember Feeder were 11 copies or so away from her. 12 - Feeder - JUST A DAY EP Ah3GcnSi2zA {12}-16-17-17-21-36-62 Most probably their best single, with "Shatter" in second and "Insomnia" in third. Had a hard time buying this, Woolworths had no stock, and had to go to Virgin on the bus in cold weather on the Saturday. Worked in a printers at the time. 13 - Janet Jackson featuring Carly Simon and Missy Elliott - SON OF A GUN (I BETCHA THINK THIS SONG IS ABOUT YOU) No video on youtube {13}-19-22-24-30-44-65-X-X-71-66 This is more Missy Elliot's song than Janet' despite the fact she's the first listed artist in the credits. Reminds me of that Dr Dre single which "featured" Slim Shady, even though he did most of the rapping. 14 - Steps - WORDS ARE NOT ENOUGH / I KNOW HIM SO WELL Can't be asked to find the video, as the song is quite forgettable! {5}-14-15-13-16-31-42-59-59-50-57 15 - Kosheen - CATCH 02exfOzdQOI {15}-22-23-23-29-39-52-66 One of the better singles in this chart. 16 - Sum 41 - IN TOO DEEP I9COI_ya8cQ {13}-16-17-18-15-27-37-57-70-70-73 Quite liked this at the time, but is just boring today. Terrible live too. 17 - Riva featuring Dannii Minogue - WHO DO YOU LOVE NOW (STRINGER) LD5GD8k8BbI {3}-5-10-17-20-19-19-24-32-42-46-45-56-67-64 The chart weeks enabled Danni to break into the singles top 500 all-time ranking before Guninees went onto singles and albums combined. Not a bad song too. 18 - Cliff Richard - SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW / WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD (MEDLEY) NO COMMENT!!! {11}-18-24-30-48-69 19 - Hear'Say - EVERYBODY VlnYJWLSe6g {4}-12-19-23-20-22-44-52-68-53-56 Boring I think, everytime I hear this I always keep thinking of their performance on the Royal Variety, in which some firework went off everytime the chorus was sung, for no apparent reason. 20 - Emma Bunton - WE'RE NOT GOING TO SLEEP TONIGHT wVHUAE7FLIM {20}-34-32-35-49 Definetly her worse single at the time, and the public agreed. The midweeks for THE FOLLOWING WEEK WERE:- (including sales) 1. 50,528 Somethin' Stupid Robbie Williams/Nicole Kidman 2. 38,490 How Wonderful You Are Gordon Haskell 3. 33,865 Gotta Get Thru This Daniel Bedingfield 4. 22,053 Murder On The Dancefloor Sophie Ellis Bextor 5. 17,855 Handbags And Gladrags Stereophonics 6. 15,992 Have You Ever S Club 7 7. 15,089 I Believe In Christmas Tweenies 8. 14,100 Lately Samantha Mumba 9. 14,005 Country Roads Hermes House Band 10. 13,682 Will I Ian Van Dahl 11. 12,691 Resurection Ppk 12. 12,664 What If Kate Winslet 13. 8,296 Words Are Not Enough/I Know Him So Well Steps 14. 7,749 Hey Baby Dj Otzi 15. 7,614 Can't Get You Out Of My Head Kylie Minogue 16. 6,971 Son Of A Gun (I Betcha Think This Song) Janet Jackson Ft Carly Simon 17. 6,932 Just A Day Ep Feeder (the Woolworths stocking problem was prolly one of the reasons why this shot up during the week) 18. 6,461 Because I Got High Afroman 19. 6,453 In Too Deep Sum 41 20. 6,371 Who Do You Love Now (Stringer) Riva Ft Dannii Minogue Sources:- Polyhex and http://www.troubled-diva.com/2001_12_16_tr...va_archive.html Edited December 18, 200717 yr by Marcus
December 17, 200717 yr Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha !!!! :D I just knew, knew there'd be a Feeder track in there somewhere!
December 17, 200717 yr 03 - Sophie Ellis Bextor - MURDER ON THE DANCEFLOOR 2_Nsi05HkXw {2}-3-4-4-2-7-11-16-16-16-21-25-36-48-60-61 Quite liked this back in the day, but wouldn't bother now. yeah used to love this but i dont bother when i play my cheesy compilation dvd, i always skip over to the passion fruit, atc, alcazar and right said fred, much better much more cheesy!!!! 04 - Stereophonics - HANDBAGS AND GLADRAGS d1UzVjJvhFw {4}-4-5-5-5-10-13-20-18-21-28-35-43-57-X-X-72 UGH!, what were they thinking?. usual boring dadrock - only 1 record stand out from their 'cannon'. 16 - Sum 41 - IN TOO DEEP I9COI_ya8cQ {13}-16-17-18-15-27-37-57-70-70-73 Quite liked this at the time, but is just boring today. Terrible live too. still a great pop single. that is a great pop single, nothing else :lol:
December 17, 200717 yr My favourite from there is Feeder- Just A Day. Brilliant track, still play it today. But I also like the songs by Kate Winslet, S Club 7 (it is a decent pop song), PPK, Kosheen and, surprisingly, Dannii Minogue. Worst for me are the songs by Hear'Say, Ian Van Dahl, Stereophonics, Steps, The Tweenies, that awful Hermes House Bands cover- and Cliff Richard. That medley of Somewhere Over The Rainbow and What A Wonderful World he did isn't even original itself. It's a cover of a much better version by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole that he did in 1993. The rest are all quite average I think.
December 17, 200717 yr 17. 6,932 Just A Day Ep Feeder (the Woolworths stocking problem was prolly one of the reasons why this shot up during the week) A more likely reason is that the midweek chart posted is for the chart after the top 20 posted above (Feeder were #16 at the end of the week on this one).
December 18, 200717 yr Author Duly noted, thanks Paul! :D :). "Just a Day" is a cult classic never to be forgotten, it was voted the 48th best single of all time by XFM listeners last year :D. Edited December 18, 200717 yr by Marcus
December 18, 200717 yr Murder On The Dancefloor was ROBBED of #1. :( What a great track that is. Yes I agree!, I love this song, great vid as well. although for ages I thought she was singing 'So you'd better not kill the GROOM, DJ' lol...(it was groove) Edited December 18, 200717 yr by Olympus
December 18, 200717 yr I loved Samantha Mumba! Can't believe 'Lately' her 5th single from her debut album had such a good chart run.
December 18, 200717 yr Author I absolutely adore that Feeder track. Fantastic track and great video. nice to hear someone say something nice about them! :D, epsecially after the sh*t I get from the Lilly Allen fan on another forum (even thought I was gullable and told me they were trying for xmas #1 with a track called "Eat My Face" :rolleyes:) and a Leona fan's gripe at them on Haven in July (before all the Leona craze started back up again). On both occasions I didn't even mention Feeder at all. Edited December 18, 200717 yr by Marcus

December 23, 200717 yr Author No need to stir here, please. Other people are entitled to not like Feeder and have another opinion you know :o Yeah, but ripping on me for liking them just isn't on. The Lilly Allen fan started on me on another forum for getting the name of the film wrong, that the Leon single originally appeared on, and I really laid into him.
December 26, 200717 yr pity someone DIDNT murder sophie... cant abide that 'alien cat' looking bint. stereophonics dreary cover of 'handbags and gladrags' out drearied rod stewarts album cover version (the original chart hit was the superb cover by chris farlowe... mike d'arbo of manfred mann wrote it) danii minogue was the big surprise there, with riva 'who do you love now' was brilliant!!!
December 26, 200717 yr Yeah, but ripping on me for liking them just isn't on. The Lilly Allen fan started on me on another forum for getting the name of the film wrong, that the Leon single originally appeared on, and I really laid into him. fair enough, but have the same respect for acts and thier fans that are'nt to your personal taste, as you expect people to have for yours. seems fair to me.
December 26, 200717 yr fair enough, but have the same respect for acts and thier fans that are'nt to your personal taste, as you expect people to have for yours. seems fair to me. Indeed it does, well said.
