ASFM: dmlawdifestivalen: Forgotten Hits - Semi Final 1 listening party 20/04/2021 8pm

[ButterTart]

I like the chorus, it’s the guy I have issues with

It wouldn't be proper 90s dance without a shit man rapping.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I remember this as well.

 

[Superstylin']

@dmlaw Can you do the results show as a Top 40 Mark Goodier countdown to mix things up a bit.

It'd be like listening to the Sunday night charts of yesteryear

 

[RS]

What year is this from? The video suggests the very end of the 90’s, but the sound is so cheap it sounds more like 1995 at the latest.

 

[dmlaw]

SONG 3 - Shoebill

Alisha's Attic - Indestructible



UK #12

 

[ButterTart]

Holy fuck Alisha's Attic!

 

[BoysForSeles]

Was this Real McCoy song not released in the UK then?

Why not, it's ace?! Never heard it before either...

Official Charts tells me it was a UK #78, didn’t know it either.

 

[ButterTart]

This is my favourite of theirs

Real McCoy? 1997.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

YAY

 

[Tisch]

I think I speak for everyone when I say FUCK YES.

 

[Phoenix]

I remember Alisha’s Attic but I don’t think I’ve ever heard their music

 

[ButterTart]

Oh shit I'm three songs in and I already feel like I have my medal placings sorted.

 

[dmlaw]

I would like to remind everyone that the CGI in this video is from four years later than Jurassic Park.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

It's fine, but the context of this I reckon we could have got away I Am I Feel.

 

[ButterTart]

I would like to remind everyone that the CGI in this video is from four years later than Jurassic Park.

And a decade earlier than the gladiators in the Now We Are Free video from Trampy Trance Night.

 

[Phoenix]

Also this is the first one that’s blocked so I’m watching a very weird video that is a mix of people at the gym and a fashion show

 

[Tisch]

I saw Red Alisha's Attic in her new band supporting someone a few years ago. SO DULL.

 

[Raining on Me]

Oh this was nice, it was the lead single from their sort of flop second album wasn't it?

I always remember being a tad upset for them that it just didn't quite happen once album 1 was over with..

 

[RS]

It’s a little too boring, isn’t it?

 

[Superstylin']

God i loved Alishas Attic back in the day. This is going to be SO damn hard to know what to cull if the quality keeps up.

 

[ButterTart]

It's fine, but the context of this I reckon we could have got away I Am I Feel.

That was the theme tune to something in the 90s. I want to say it starred that testicle faced scouse woman from Watching.

 

[Tisch]

Blonde Alisha's Attic is quite a prolific songwriter as well. At least she was 10 years ago ISH

 

[Phoenix]

Now the video has Princess Di in a war torn country

 

[OutSynk]

It’s a little too boring, isn’t it?

It is.

 

[Alla]

Hi bitches, I'm back in the competition (because I love this theme)

Liking the songs so far, I knew this was gonna be totally my thing. Good luck @Rita and the rest of you.

 

[Berly]

A heterosexual must have sent this because in no gay world are Karen and Shelly Poole forgotten

 

[RS]

I do hope it’s going to be a very 90’s heat.

 

[dmlaw]

SONG 4 - Dodo

Khaled - Didi

France #9

 

[ButterTart]

Oh this was nice, it was the lead single from their sort of flop second album wasn't it?

I always remember being a tad upset for them that it just didn't quite happen once album 1 was over with..

That was The Incidentals. I think Indestructible was the third single from their first album.

 

[Tisch]

Now the video has Princess Di in a war torn country

Are love for Princess Di is indestructible

 

[Cerro de Casa]

It’s a little too boring, isn’t it?

No. It's a moody mid-tempo number.

 

[Raining on Me]

It's fine, but the context of this I reckon we could have got away I Am I Feel.

Yeah, or Alisha Rules The World

Indestructible wasn't their best but happy to hear it again

 

[ButterTart]

OK I'm listening, Khaled.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Oh I remember this. This was (and remains) MASSIVE in France. Surprised it 'only' went to No. 9 there..

 

[OutSynk]

Spoiled the playlist and already know what Suomi's entry is.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Not for me.

 

[Phoenix]

Another blocked one, is it Aisha?

 

[ButterTart]

Oh shit I like this one as well. Can someone please have sent Sheeran just so there's something to cull?

 

[ButterTart]

Spoiled the playlist and already know what Suomi's entry is.

I don't think Statements was a UK Top 40.
