'Larger Than Life' is a bop. 'When The Heartache Is Over' I recognised from being sampled by Freemasons - Love On My Mind in 2005! I prefer Westlife's first two #1s to 'Flying Without Wings'. Sad the 90's on this thread are nearly over :(

Omg reminds me of this thread: Ruin a 20th Century song title by changing one letter... a game for all! - Page 5 - 20th Century Retro - BuzzJack Music Forum

This reminds me of Levi Heron - The Glen!

Capital are so petty. Olivia Dean though like Sienna Spiro is genre-wise more Heart than Capital!

'Hot for You' rate S'express>>>>Julio Bashmore and Jessie Ware>>>>>>>>>>>This

'Go' and 'Midnight Sun' the only chart causes for celebration in Buzzjack this year so far?!

Gracie will probably go low top 40 The +× duo probably won't sadly.

Its a bit of a mess. Great vocal from Fergie and Chris Willis though. I much prefer David Guetta's progressive house songs. One (Your Name) is so euphoric, I didn't appreciate it enough at the time and only got into SHM with 'Miami 2 Ibiza'. Magnetic Man - I Need Air is good.

PP version sounds like they used the bassline from DJ Fresh - Gold Dust.

'Every Breath You Take' is depressing especially when you know the true meaning of the song. A really important song to be made to highlight the problem of stalking but yeah the song's been a bit overplayed on the radio. I really like that Forrest - Feel The Need In Me cover it sounds like a late 80s dance track. Big Country are very good and unique sounding. Booker Newberry III the first and only artist to chart with a Roman Numeral title?! Wham! continuing on their Brit-funk journey and 'Waiting For A Train' very Dire Straits influenced with the spoken word vocal. Money Go Round (Part One) a good political song.

Another track to enter at #1! Mix of piano house and disco and it works well, one of Take That's less dated sounding songs. The Meatloaf song is very good and nostalgic (I remember the video a lot) even though operatic rock isn't one of my favourite genres.

Ashanti - Only U has interesting 'rock guitar' style production. I only discovered the song after Chase and Status sampled it in 'Selecta' ft. Stefflon Don (and it sounds very much like C&S's early guitar based sound). I prefer Ashanti's song 'Foolish' because of the lovely piano in it. I am guessing you didn't like the Aitch revival of 'Rok Wit U (Aww Baby)' in 2022 either. Thought it was a nice summery track.

Didn't know 'Wild Thing' was a cover. I wonder will you like The Troggs' other really well known song or will it be ruined by future overplay of a cover of it?! Thought 'Strangers In The Night' was a 50's song.

Temptation is great it is based on the Northern Soul fast beat but that and the female vocal make it sound a bit like a precursor to late 80s dance like Yazz. Love Is A Stranger is very good, quite dark though!
