So that was the chart of 1999. As you can see Shania won by just 8pts. I, like many of you thought that Britney would win this easily. But it just goes to show, Shania didn't even make it to number 1, but she was very consistent, and it's that what won it for her. Very interesting to see Steps, Eiffel 65 and Macy Gray all in the top 10, despite having part of there chart run excluded from there final score. Steps would have almost certainly won it if there weeks from 1998 had been taken into account. But then you could say the same thing for some of the other songs further down, so it's swings and roundabouts I guess. Thanks again for all the comments, and hope you enjoyed it. I will be going away and doing 1998 and 2000 next, these will come up early-ish august. Hope to see you all there again.

I was going to do 1998 next. Work my way backwards through the 90's. Then do some of the 00's. But taking your request into consideration, and thinking about it. It would be quite cool to do 99, then 00, 98, then 01 and so on. Gives a nice mix of past and more recent. So will probs try to work on 1998 and 2000 together, and reveal them both in the early august region. And Supernova, I have no probs with you doing this for 2009. I've seen this type of points thing around here anyway, so if there is any copyright on this anywhere, i've probs broken it anyway, lol. And thanks for your comments throughout the rundown, glad you have enjoyed it.

Just going to take a quick tea break before revealing the top 5. Here are the final 5 songs of 1999 yet to be revealed, in alphabetical order. Who will be #1?
