[Alla]

16. Dawn the Apprentice Jockey

2 Eivissa - Oh La La La

UK #13, US Dance #10 (this is a unprecedented flop for this chart), Spain #1

1997

This was number 1 here

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Would it be remembered by someone who isn’t that into their music, though?

ZenGiraffe?

 

[ZenGiraffe]

pastypeople!!!

 

[ZenGiraffe]

ZenGiraffe?

Good lord, even I know this...

 

[Tisch]

Independent Love Song?

Yeah.

I didn't really know it myself to be fair

 

[Alla]

This was number 1 here

Oh you said so, I can't read

 

[dmlaw]

It’s nice that the video has been filmed to resemble the way your eyes go after a night on the pills.

 

[Tisch]

Has this also been on moopy in some shape or guise before? It smells of one of Buttertart's or Ag's dance nights.

 

[Marina Salty]

This was high energy levels of known too.

 

[RS]

There is a reason why I don’t even think I’ve heard it.

 

[Raining on Me]

It's not for me but I appreciate the sentiment

 

[RJN]

17. My name is Nadine Coyle, I’m from Lark Hill in Derry, my date of birth is 15/6/85 making me a Gemini

Jessica Folcker - How Will I Know (Who You Are)

Top 10 in Austria, Netherlands, and Sweden

1998

 

[OutSynk]

I've definitely heard it but I never think about it so I guess it's forgotten.

 

[RS]

Jessica Folker?!

Why wouldn’t you choose Tell Me What You Want instead?!

 

[ZenGiraffe]

 

[Alla]

This Jessica Folker song has the same instrumental than many other Jessica Folker songs But it's nice and not an obvious one.

 

[RJN]

next up is our final song of the night

 

[dmlaw]

Just think about how much you’re going to enjoy the next semi final.

 

[RS]

next up is our final song of the night

 

[Iguana]

Now THIS is more like it!

 

[Raining on Me]

Oh my god at this Solid HarmoniE style crap. Love it dearly

Did she do that crash like a wrecking ball song?

 

[Alla]

I'm still laughing with all those big brother avatars and RJN having no idea who the hell are all those people

 

[Iguana]

It's like a Solid HarmoniE wet dream for me

 

[OutSynk]

This is the most known song for me but it's far from her best.

 

[dmlaw]

Key change incoming.

 

[Iguana]

Oh my god at this Solid HarmoniE style crap.

It's like a Solid HarmoniE wet dream for me

 

[RJN]

18. Mariah Carey House Tour

Monifah - Touch It

US #9, UK #29

1998

 

[RS]

The 90’s of this semi being represented by two different black Swedish female artits is a kind of ”werk”.

 

[Alla]

I'm aware of Monifah and heard this song but totally forgotten, so spot on. However

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Why is she whispering?

 

[RS]

The 90’s of this semi being represented by two different black Swedish female artits is a kind of ”werk”.

Thankfully none of them being Lutricia McNeal

 

[RS]

Why is she whispering?

Seduction

 

[OutSynk]

Why is she whispering?

It's kind of welcome after some of these.

 

[Tisch]

ZERO star quality.

All the young fit men LUSTING after her.

BORING song.

 

[dmlaw]

Thankfully none of them being Lutricia McNeal

She was still having hits well into the 2000s so we’re not out of the woods yet.

 

[dmlaw]

Why is she whispering?

Her downstairs neighbour has said that if she doesn’t keep it down then he‘s going to ring the landlord.

 

[Raining on Me]

This Monifah song is TERRIBLE but somewhat CAPTIVATING

Filler points when required

 

[ZenGiraffe]

@RJN

 

[Iguana]

@RJN

Did RJN leave Mopsy from EMBARRASSMENT?

 

[ZenGiraffe]

YouTube just autoplayed Lady Gaga for me. The algorithm KNOWS ME
