Moopy's Greatest Dance Anthems - The Results Thread

[octophone]

Unpopular opinion: Blue Monday wouldn't make my New Order top 10. I think it would make my 20 tho'.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I think this came top 5 last time. Such a staple.

 

[straightorbroken]

New Order, a mixture of the grim with the grand. A singer that can't project or convey emotion and yet it all conveys simply everything as simply as possible.

If only I'd known big ron back then he could have taken me. And shown me the nightlife.

I think your then-boyfriend would have liked that even less than he would have liked going to the proper clubs.

 

[Kate]

You know what, its a belter and I love Blue Monday but I had to drop it from my vote

Same! I never tire of it but I just don't think of it as a dance track. Though I KNOW IT IS.

 

[Zu]

I am obviously a tiny bit drunk but there’s something coming up which upsets me so much that I don’t think I can watch

(I did vote for it though. Obviously )

 

[jyxz]

The Hardfloor remix of this is wonktastic

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I have seen this performed live at Reading 98, so that was something.

 

[octophone]

Also, Barney and Hooky are a pair of absolute wanks who thoroughly deserved each other.

 

[ButterTart]

I hope everyone is drinking something appropriate.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

The Kylie mash up is of course absolute GOLD.

 

[Kate]

I have the playlist up on my TELLY so I can't see what's coming next

HANDS OFF @Kate!

 

[ButterTart]

Going a bit more recent now with a surprise qualifier. Coming in at no. 28, Bicep - Glue.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Snap. Fucking adverts.

 

[Kate]

HANDS OFF @Kate!

I SAW HIM FIRST BITCH

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Oh YAY Bicep!

 

[ButterTart]

Great times.

They really were. I've spoken to you about this before, I'd love to go back to San An but I know it's nothing now by comparison to what it was.

 

[Kate]

OOOH this is a bit of pleasing surprise

 

[straightorbroken]

I don't think I've ever heard of the Bicep bunch. The video is like a deleted opening scene from Band of Gold. Colour me intrigued. I like it.

Edit: now that the wailing bits have started, I do know it after all. Nice bicycle route.

 

[ButterTart]

OOOH this is a bit of pleasing surprise

Innit?

 

[AGinAg (37)]

This is such a potential suicide on a pill comedown.

 

[octophone]

I've yet to spend time with Bicep. I like this - the aesthetic of the video is pleasing too.

 

[ButterTart]

Nice bicycle route.

Is this a euphemism?

 

[Kate]

omg this video would go nicely in our urban architecture thread

 

[AGinAg (37)]

It's a lockdown nostalgia video!

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Druggers End

Bicep Glue was a future classic the first time I heard it. We had the album on repeat for months

 

[Kate]

This must have been on the 6 Music playlist for a while for me to know it so well.

 

[dmlaw]

I couldn't find the playlist on the YouTube app on my telly, so I had to connect my laptop and play it on the telly through that. I have now moved the mouse so that it's on the table next to me to let me skip the adverts without getting up. I'm basically a technician.

 

[COB]

Spoiler: Fully stocked here

Also this song is the tits, whatever it is.

Although someone described it on twitter as Mr Brightside for lads who do ket

 

[Zu]

I SAW HIM FIRST BITCH

OH NO YOU DIDN’T

And I’m going to find PROOF!

 

[ButterTart]

And after a touch of class, back to the 90s.

Berri - Sunshine After The Rain, which came in at no. 25.

 

[octophone]

PISSBREAK

 

[Zu]

This is such a potential suicide on a pill comedown.

QUITE!

 

[straightorbroken]

Berri's album is really consistent. It's very cute and yes utterly throwaway. Shine Like A Star was very good, but this was head and shoulders their best. I remember being mesmerised by the singer's plastic umbrella skirt thing on totp.

 

[Kate]

Meh.

 

[ButterTart]

I made it unlisted, because I don't like Youtube knowing my business. I could make it public if that's easier for you?

 

[big ron]

Pure cheese
