On that same week, Tina Cousins managed an incredible feat that is yet to happen again. As well as hitting #1 with this medley, she also entered at #2 in my chart with the 1999 version of her track "Killin' time", making it the only artist to date to be in the top 2 in the same week in my chart. yhgVUe5-Ozg

95. "Colour The World" Sash! feat. Dr. Alban (1 week) Reached #1: 5 March 1999 UK Chart Peak: #15 Not one of the Sash! hits that springs imediately to everyone's minds (including mine), but the one who actually hit #1 in my chart, though it would drop down the chart shortly after.

I saw her shooting the street dance scene in Lisbon. It was way back in June 2012, before she was pregnant. Back then the song had the working title of "Turth Or Dare".

Adding up the 2001 re-release sales, how much has this sold now?

92. "When you believe" Mariah Carey & Whitney Houston (3 weeks) Reached #1: 15 January 1999 UK Chart peak: #4 Having entered my chart on Christmas 98 at #2, seen off by the Stars On 54, the diva superduet for "The Prince of Egypt" soundtrack took advantage of the early year quietness in the charts to finally hit #1.

90. "If You Could Read My Mind" Stars On 54 (Ultra Naté, Amber and Jocelyn Enriquez) Reached #1: 25 December 1998 UK Chart peak: #23 The Christmas 1998 #1 in my chart was quite a surprise one, but in the end, it was this cover of "If You Could Read My Mind", by Ultra "Free" Naté, Dutch singer Amber (one of the few Euro-dance artists who were more successful in America than in Europe) and Jocelyn Enriquez for the movie "54" starring Mike Myers, Ryan Philippe, Salma Hayek and Neve Campbell. The song was originally recorded by Gordon Lightfoot in 1971 and covered by acts like Petula Clark, Johnny Cash, Crystal Gayle, Barbra Streisand, Olivia Newton-John and Liza Minelli.

In the UK, the song was released as a double A-side, coupled with "Little Star" a song about her daughter Lourdes. 1JV0tj1oLVs

88. "Believe" Cher (3 non-consecutive weeks) Reached #1: 20 November 1998 and 13 December 1998 UK Chart peak: #1 Another song that really needs no explaining. The biggest selling single in the UK by a female artist, it is also credited with popularizing auto-tune. -SNJ-souBc8

Was ever released in the UK? I loved this to bits back in 1998 and it was heavily featured in German music channels.

I also remember this version that mashed up "I Like To Move It" _uIXwec2PaE

Ed Sheeran goes Justin Timberlake :P
