  1. Well that's a surprising one to make the top 10 here. Can't say I've ever been too enthusiastic about it. Much preferred the two follow ups!
  2. Enrique and Whitney first oops. Just a bit meh for me. I know Kaci won't be here for long but her two songs are childhood bops for me (one of them i bought at the time :kink: )
  3. Ashlee Simpson this time but Ja Rule is next after her so not fussed if that goes before it.
  4. 'Run' probably my fave left oops (along with The Killers). Noisettes again.
  5. Seems a fair postion for that. It's nice but not quite up among the very best they did. The superior song of S Club's to come.
  6. No Tom Jones international on there I hope lol
  7. Most of if not all of us pop into a charity shop so this is strictly for purchases for anything from the 00's.. CD's, vinyls, books, games, toys etc.. what 21st Century thing you bought in them in say the past few months or so.
  8. 'Love Don't Cost A Thing' is also pretty great too. 'Uptown Girl' a very fun version and a good switch up to being upbeat for Westlife at last.
  9. My picks for 2010's which is all female minus Paolo lol. Adele - 21 Taylor Swift - 1989 Paolo Nutini - Caustic Love Lady Gaga - Born This Way
  10. I did and still do enjoy 'Rollin' but did actually prefer their follow up 'My Way' even more. 'Let's Dance' is good fun. I can see why 'Eternity' might be interpreted as boring to some but I think it's really nice. 'What Took You So Long' is great as well. Nice slice of breezy radio pop.
  11. I like 'Too Close' but hardly the most innovative take on a song that was first recorded a few years prior. Was never keen on '21 Seconds' but I guess I see it's humour appeal for memes and the like. 'Hey Baby' is naff personified but admittedly rather catchy and 'Angel' is strong for me. It was a time for sure seeing Shaggy bag two number ones back to back, back then.
  12. I'll go for Sisqó.
  13. Gonna go with Good Charlotte I think. Amazed it's got to the final though. Mika's is good too though so would also be fine with that winning.
  14. 'American Pie', 'Let's Stay Together' and 'Telegram Sam' all great so good top picks from that week. 'Diamonds Are Forever' is a classic too. Unfortunately I'm not a fan of 'Have You Seen Her' though.
  15. Excellent first day streams for Chappell 😮
  16. 'If You Come Back' would be a fair bit higher for me. A nice ballad that was and probably my favourite ballad they did.
  17. Its fine I edited yesterday lol. I must have misread that bit on wiki and assumed i saw married for some reason :')
  18. Aw I like 'Somethin Stupid' and I'm not into type of music at all. Was a cute Christmas #1. Also like 'The Way To Your Love'. I'd actually put 'Pure and Simple' as the worse of their #1 singles oops. 'Queen Of My Heart' I bought at the time 🫣 and I didn't buy any Westlife songs generally lol. I guess 9 year old me at the time didn't particularly mind it too much but looking back now not fond of it so will have to surrender it to a charity shop lol.
  19. S Club 7 for me now.
  20. Dr Dre next.
  21. I do like 'It's Raining Men' and it's one i bought but certainly not added anything to stand out from the original. Also have the other two Geri's singles from 2001 too and generally do prefer both to this one tbh.
  22. 121 1st M.I.A - Paper Planes (17/31 Votes) Flying high with her 'Paper Planes' is M.I.A. with the win here. The song released in 2008 was produced along with her partner at the time, dance veteran Diplo. It used a sample from The Clash's song 'Straight To Hell' and was notably used in the film Slumdog Millionaire. The track gained controversy for having gunshot sounds and lyrical references to cannabis with many believing it to be pro terrorism which M.I.A. strongly voiced being against. 2nd KT Tunstall - Other Side Of The World (14/31 Votes) KT Tunstall is runner up with 'Other Side Of The World'. The second single released from her debut album Eye to the Telescope. It became her first single to crack the top 20 peaking at 13. It's lyrical element tells of distance relationships and how they can seldom work out. This was a true story as KT had two friends who were a couple and one lived in Scotland while the other was in the US! -- 3rd: Kaiser Chiefs - I Predict A Riot / Sink That Ship 12/32 votes (38%) 4th: Cascada - Everytime We Touch 12/31 votes (39%) 5th: Fountains Of Wayne - Stacy’s Mom 11/35 votes (31%) 6th: Pixie Lott - Cry Me Out 16/31 votes (52%) 7th: Beyoncé - Work It Out 14/34 votes (41%) 8th: Scooter - Weekend! 10/33 votes (30%) 9th: Artful Dodger featuring Lifford - Please Don’t Turn Me On 11/33 votes (33%) 10th: Hermes House Band - Country Roads 11/31 votes (35%)

  24. 119 1st Empire Of The Sun - We Are The People 21/32 Votes Australian group Empire Of The Sun are the people who run the world in this one as 'We Are The People' takes a convincing win.
