Oh gosh I was just talking about Feel Good Inc there on the 2005 thread.

The UK dance music of 2005 I preferred to the years before at the time, besides the 80s remixes there was also quite a bit of disco influenced dance in the UK. But I think pop was better in the early 00s. The Avenue by Roll Deep I remember too, I lumped it in with the 80s remixes as it is technically a remix of an 80s song. Not a big fan of mid 00s indie but there was some stuff I liked - Feel Good Inc of course (reminded by Jester's profile pic),Dare , Hard-Fi, Caesars.

Doechii one in production/chatty vocal style reminds me of Princess Superstar - Bad Babysitter lol!

Voted for Armin and co. I like hard dance but the Lost Frequency and Pickle one is a bit repetitive melodically. The Sam Feldt one is good, owes a lot to Pedro.

I didn't like all the 'you ooh oohs' and tropical house production the first time round. :drama: But I prefer it now even though both Calvin and Rihanna had some other far better songs imo.

'Professional Widow' I didn't like at first, I first heard it on a Tori Amos compilation CD and it was a bit jarring hearing it after Tori's usual styled songs but I really like it now. 'Where Do You Go' I re-discovered a few years ago, and remembered from the time, what a nostalgic track! It sounds far too summery for January though! That Texas song is such a MOR radio fave!

^Yeah because of Reform UK splitting the right wing vote. I am sure Trump will lose some popularity in opinion polls this year after enacting some unpopular policies, just like Starmer has at the start. Starmer might recover a bit in the polls.

It sounds to me very Charli + Billie Guess influenced melodically.

I had forgotten about D.O.D and Carla Monroe's 'Still Sleepless'.

Palm of my Hands with venbee (Odd Mob remix) is good, I discovered it on the Beatport chart.

:o Was certain Shaboozey would be EOY #1!

Not actually breaking dishes like they used to do in some Greek tavernas?

Only saw it today repeated on BBC 1 but it was good! I missed the very start of it though.

Needs more 'Messy' soundtracked dog videos on Tiktok and Youtube Shorts. 5LEMVqBesE0

Should do well in the Beatport top 100 but probably not the official UK charts.

RIP :(

Telly Savalas' 'If' is such a weird #1. 'Bye Bye Baby' by Bay City Rollers is a bit better even if it does sound more 60s than 70s. I really like 'Fox on the Run' good rock track with good synths.

Interesting crediting - are NOTION going to get credited by the OCC considering this remix is where most of the streams are?

Songs by Supertramp have been covered so much over the years :drama: 'Give A Little Bit', 'Logical Song', 'Breakfast In America' and 'Dreamer' too. They also did 'It's Raining Again' too.

I'm still not bored of 'That's So True', but I don't listen to radio much apart from the chart show.

Iconic chart. 'Starstrukk' I really liked but only got to know it in the new year - great production and better imo than Kesha's rival 'Tik Tok'.

You are stopping at 2009, was looking forward to this going up to 2015 maybe :lol:

Moves Like Jagger?

Thought this was a Sabrina - Bed Chem reference with the title before I saw it was in the 21st Century Retro forum but yeah Romeo isn't one of Basements best so not unhappy to see it out. Voted for Emma Bunton.
