Ne Plus Ultra

What was the point of Ministry Of Sound holding this back when it hasn't even gotten major support when it has finally been released? It's already smashed in several parts of Europe like Lost Frequencies' underperforming "Reality".

Let A Boy Cry is amazing. Come Into My Life was also great.

Truly iconic, both song & video! :wub:

A lot of those charts included urban songs that were far from Dance though. :P

I do get that Rednex are probably seen as more of a "dance" act than Aqua but they did have a big hit in Europe (except the UK) with this ballad: 6FwmM93jgUo Pretty much in the same vein as Aqua's UK #1 "Turn Back Time".

"Choose Life" is amazing. Love that Ewan McGregor actually had 2 top 40 hits, the other being the great "Come What May" from Moulin Rouge!

Stay is yet another amazing song! :wub:

Preach the truth! Definitely in the top 5 of the album along with "Burn" & "Say It To Me"!

Yep, she provided both background vocals & co-wrote this song. It has her stamp all over it.

Produced by Dr. Luke. Ugh.

"I Wanna Be" Official Video: 9K1jmwIgH5s This should have been the lead single. What was she thinking releasing the limp "Who Am I" as a kickoff track? :puke2: This is miles better.

"Free" is godly. :wub:

Dannii's "All I Wanna Do": Flawless song! :D The "Girl" singles & the rest of her output afterwards would truly prove to be marvelous. :D

Another excellent song. I'm more & more excited to listen to the album! :wub:

Hmmm, does the lead singer wear a big hat and have their name start out with "J"? :D Could be wrong, but would be a good guess.

Love, love, love it! Her followup single was very good too.

Ecuador is such a tune, still. :dance: Also another song with completely Spanish lyrics to chart (like Los Lobos' "La Bamba" & Daddy Yankee's "Gasolina") in the UK. "Lambada" already had complete Portuguese lyrics to chart in '89.

One of the ultimate definitions of an ANTHEM. That chorus is everything. :wub:

"Closer Than Close" is still a '90s gem. :wub:

Gorgeous track. :wub: Apparently Olive were later dropped from their record label for not being "successful" enough despite having 2 top 20 singles & a top 20 album.

One of the best songs of the year, it truly takes you to another place. :wub:

"Keep On Dancin'" has been chosen as the third UK single from "Delirium": From The POPshock:
