Both anthems of their genres but I voted for T.a.T.u.

Top 5: Associates - 18 Carat Love Affair/Long Hangover Talk Talk - Today Sylvian Sakamoto - Bamboo Houses / Bamboo Music Carly Simon - Why ABC - All Of My Heart Just outside: Haysi Fantayzee - John Wayne Is Big Leggy Toto Coelo - I Eat Cannibals Carly Simon - Why is ahead of its time - sounds 90s with the piano and Ace of Base style reggae-pop beat! Talk Talk - Today also sounds very good, Talk Talk were one of the best bands of 1982 with their fast synthpop. Associates and Talk Talk had great much missed frontmen :( Also Two fun and good quality novelty tracks which didn't quite make my top 5!

Quite a lot more songs I like going out. 'Telephone Line' by ELO is a sad song. The great synth riff in Foreigner's 'Waiting For A Girl Like You' is easily the best part, lyrics are a bit trite in comparison. Cola Boy's '7 Ways To Love' is a good dance track maybe I should have given it some points. Also Inner City - Big Fun is a good dance track too. 'Walking on Broken Glass' a good Annie Lennox song preferable I think to previous biggest solo hit 'Why'. 'Broken Bones' by Love Inc. I prefer to 'You're A Superstar' Cardi B, Bad Bunny and J Balvin - I Like It is a bop too, the song it samples is often used in Strictly and adverts like for Aldi but not the Cardi + Friends version sadly!

I like that Nelly song, nostalgic!

That's a good #1. Dramatic and atmospheric. Its a bit cheesy but 'I Like Your Smile' is still good. The 'Blow, Branford, blow!' before the saxophone solo is funny too! Opus III great rave/trip hop track.

Mai Tai - History I voted for and its very good - I discovered in the BBC 4 TOTP reruns a few years ago. Its quite dark-sounding disco production wise which is my favourite type of disco. I like 'All Stood Still', an early electronic dance hit that is a bit forgotten in Ultravox's discography!

I prefer the cover of the Soulsearcher track by Eye to Eye ft Taka Boom which was a top 40 hit in 2001. Eye To Eye featuring Taka Boom Just Can't Get Enough

It is good for moderators and music competition hosts! I am neither so was happy with my previous message storage.

Never mind this, please bring back the much missed shoutbox

Martin Solveig ft Sam White - '+1' was better than 'Intoxicated' imo.

Omg 'Gone Missing' should have been a hit way better than the other Shift K3y hits. DJ Fresh/High Contrast/Dizzee - When Love Begins was fun too as a 90s rave inspired track. Grace and G-Eazy You Dont Own Me was a very good cover, I think it inspired Dove Cameron - Boyfriend too.

That sounds great 👍

Yeah I find 'I Want Candy' and to a lesser extent 'Iko Iko' irritating in any form unfortunately, both have been overplayed in media.

Sorry I was a bit busy to look for an entry to enter this time :(

Frank Farian had quite a few bands over the years, in the 90s he also started La Bouche of classic 'Be My Lover' fame!
