Romeo out :(

Coming soon

This gives me Beach House vibes - love it.

Great top 3, but Little Boots to go.

Chains is marvellous - what a great mid-90s power ballad :dub:

I’ve been voting for Katy to go since the start of this one!

Daysleeper is superb, so atmospheric. Glad a couple of us like it at least.

Another great year and thread, thanks Gezza!

Good to see a third great track from Wet Wet Wet in a row. Got their debut album at a charity shop the other day!

The song is tainted for me (but that is my opinion!).

Wonderful number 1, well deserved victory over the awful number 2.

So much awfulness in those 2 charts! I am shook at how close Blur came to a 3 week chart topper though argh!

Hello Tim, try what Michael suggests above. The post is probably in the pop forum.

Criticize is a really good song, not usually my sort of thing but it’s ace!

Last again (2 out of 4 contests I’ve entered). I’ll take the hint! Great winner though Dandy, well deserved.

I’d be happy with either winner now. And to not be last, please.

Oops last now :cry: On the plus side, I have points!

I think I’ll be last, but I hope to get at 1 point!

Little Lies and Rent are both amazing. PSBs were on fire with this era.

I never realised Crockett’s Theme got to number 2 :o

Great to see Labour take Kingswood! Less great to see Rees Mogg slithering around after, brown nosing the Reform candidate. JRM could be my MP the next General Election due to the boundary changes :(

What?! NOOOOOO at 19/2000 out :(
