As the title says! I've only charted 8 00s songs in my most played, and I think the Avril songs were heavily helped by The Pop Factor lol. Quite shocked no Girls Aloud or Sugababes featured this year oops!

No idea lol, I feel like I've skewed heavily towards current pop this year (JADE, MARINA, CMAT etc) but a few 60s/70s artists have charted in my top 100 so maybe that's why?

Girls Aloud

I only just discovered them last week and have been a bit obsessed ever since! I love that every one of the 6 of them has their own purpose/character in the band, and they all sing! Their videos online are also cracking me up - there’s clearly zero media-training going on and I love it. 😂 Their chaotic unfiltered energy is something I’ve not seen in a girl group since maybe the Spice Girls. I’m hooked on Gabriela atm. The performance video is incredible!!

The Quietus ranks That’s Showbiz Baby! at 88. https://thequietus.com/tq-charts/albums-of-the-year/best-albums-of-2025/ It doesn’t seem a very pop-oriented publication so I think it’s an achievement she even made the list!

Always found So Sick to be a bit mid. He definitely has better (Closer, Miss Independent, Mad off the top of my head). Oh didn’t know that. I remember it had an impressively long chart run for them though.

Ahh this was when McFly were still a shoe-in for #1 with their first two singles of each campaign. 🤦🏼‍♂️😂 Never enjoyed it tbh. I remember the previous week when Something Kinda Ooooh debuted at #5 on downloads alone (a big achievement at the time). I was sure it would vault to 1 the next week so was a bit shocked it only climbed two spots once CDs were released. 🥲

Cheiron votes are sent!

Smack That was never my type of music back in the day but it was so infectiously catchy I couldn’t not like it. Would have preferred My Love sneaking a week at the top though - especially since the verging-on-annoying Sexyback got there a couple of months before.
