Any last votes before this closes later?

Thanks, I'll give it a listen later. :D

Does that mean you're changing your poor score of 5 :angel: (I know it's too late now etc. etc. but just want to know if u still stand by it)

 

You clocked me. I should have rated it higher! In my defence though it isn't one of my Britney faves but I can still appreciate that its a well-crafted pop song with a flawless campaign. The receipts speak for themselves lol! But - like with BOMT - overplay back in the day has long-term damaged my ability to enjoy it as much as I should.

Me being R Kelly’s only voter wasn’t a shock.

 

I can’t deal with his actions but unfortunately I grew up listening to him a lot and I still have positive memories associated with some of his music. I even pushed him down on my list too tbh because of his actions but I couldn’t not have him on it at all.

 

I get your point. Although it isn't exactly the same situation, I have to separate Michael Jackson's music from him and his alleged crimes.

But RiRi's pose on the GGGB cover is everything!

OIDIA is EXACTLY how you do a second lead single after a monster classic like BOMT. The title is arguably just as well remembered as '...Baby', the video, Titanic reference, red body suit. :drama: Everything was a triumph!

1. Because Of You

2. Behind These Hazel Eyes

3. Since U Been Gone

(Gone)

(You Found Me)

4. Walk Away

5. Breakaway

 

That top 3 though is just perfect. Pop rock and pop balladry at its finest. I still can't believe Clive Davis didn't like Because Of You. :drama: What a fool!

This album was MASSIVE at the time. :o BMTL was ALWAYS on the music channels (I used to think Amy was so brave being filmed so high up :lol:) and it has aged really well. My Immortal remains stunning. I used to think Christina copied the My Immortal video for The Voice Within. :lol:

Okay I'm probably coming across very anti-ANTI these days but I am SICK of artists using photos of themselves as children on their album covers. I also don't appreciate the red splodge.

:lol:

 

I actually love the standard TTT cover. :kink: I know it is an unpopular opinion but she looks like a bad girl gone worse.

But when you’re gone is included Mel C is not the lead Artist? Does she even sing a line on her own ?

 

It’s you thread , dry your eyes m8 if upset?

 

I’m only asking a question as I said I am enjoying and will be following this thread .

 

Who actually cares? WLTO is overrated and When You're Gone is an anthem!

 

Omg can't believe I forgot to vote in this. :drama: I'll still follow regardless. Can't Nobody to defy expectations. :cheer:

Stevie Wonder or Michael Jackson would be great. :D

Haha loved his commentary! Would be great to hear some more retro chart programmes!

 

Seconded! Thanks for posting HiyaLuv it's really interesting listening to old chart shows. :D If any more can be posted here we can make this the official retro chart show thread. B-)

I would really commend it if they try and push any future singles without tacking on a feature. If they can pull that off it'll set a nice precedent, and maybe other artists won't feel the need to do it as much.

 

This!! Dua's done amazingly to score two worldwide smashes without the use of a rent-a-rapper or feature.

No big losses. This rate is going well so far. :clap:

Can't see how Ricky is losing for the single cover. It's by far the most interesting one of the 3!!!

 

Exactly! The others are very dull. :lol:

This will close tomorrow at 4PM. The top 3 is so close! :drama:

The second episode of the first series of Spooks in 2002 (no spoilers obvs) ranks pretty high for me - don't think we've mentioned much in the way of scripted shows so far?

Is this what you're referring to? :kink:

The scene in Spooks where the woman was plunged into a deep fat fryer.

Ricky - the other two videos are iconic!

Shania - Ricky's is by far the most interesting single cover lol. Christina is serving girl-next-door realness so Shania to go by default. :lol:

Eiffel - Britney and Christina for a head-to-head finale *.*

I really hope Adore You can beat SOTT's peak.

Wtf this is so random! But so welcome! What is the actual reason though? A 12 year anniversary is not more special than any other year.

Some more - for various reasons. :lol: For the last one I couldn't find a proper video of Sarah's parachute death but Christ it shook me.

 

That bitter 5SOS fan is still crusading against Dua in the chart forum at every chance he can get

 

Omg the dead heat of this situation. :drama:

 

I'm going with 'Where Is The Love?' since I'd actively choose to listen to the other three songs. :lol: I don't regard WITL as BEP's best although it is a lot better than their material post-2006. :lol:
