Veets?

Well I have gone against the grain here and given my vote to the forgotten Charlie Brown which despite forgetting all about from the time has given me a fresh wave of enjoyment. Mini Viva is fine of course but I preferred the other singles.

I think I'm going to be alright this week... Will post my votes shortly.

Well... yes in fact. Get on your skates.

The dance scene of 2014 was spectacular and this #1 single was very typical of the house music on offer at the time. I think Esmeé was very much a flash in the pan whose fame quickly vanished.

I wasn't about to make an honest mistake with this choice! The Bravery should have had many more hits in that time period! Alex Clare had a unique voice too.

Dragostea Din Tei is just that bop. Timeless.

I'm team Little Jackie here! It's fun lyrics along with a true street-style production leaves it feeling like a memorable classic.

I too voted for the cleverly produced "POV" which still sounds great a quarter of a century later!

A glorious choice of single from 2000 and a defining song for me too. It was disappointing to see it missed from the Now That's What I Call Music! series, but at least I have it on New Hits 2000.

Gone with Newton here because it felt like he was going to be big at the time but then wasn't. The other pop song feels a little novelty now.

It was Divine Inspiration for me because it was one of my favourite dance songs from 2003.

The joyous Absolutely Everybody trumps the trumpets for me.

I did opt to vote for Iglu & Hartly in the end, it's just got more going for it and ALMA just doesn't really cut it for me anymore.

For me, I like the ATC song, it's got that xylophone sound throughout that reminds me of being in a sweet shop or something! However, I find Tilted to be more artistic in its form and it has aged well for a decade old!
