[dmlaw]

Did they chart well here? I’ve always known this song

Top ten, I think.

 

[win_the_game]

Fuck me it's like NWA never happened.

 

[Penelope]

The lead singer when he went on The Voice in 2016

 

[ButterTart]

They really are just yuppies at a fancy dress party.

 

[Suomi]

Terry acting like this is a modern and risky rap song whilst completely ignoring that it was written by a white public school boy and was championed by Jonathan King.

to be fair, it sounds completely different amongst everything else?

 

[Penelope]

Did they chart well here? I’ve always known this song

Was this not literally YEARS BEFORE YOU WERE BORN?

 

[Soldi]

The lead singer when he went on The Voice in 2016

Like a shit Phillip Kirkorov

 

[AGinAg (37)]

It's important that you remember and perform this for the rest of us.

I do Mr Vain, Scatman John and Its Like That too

[Raining on Me]

At least SOMETHING is going on. It didn't deserve to do well, in any decent year, but in 1995...

 

[Lucille]

It really benefits from the rest of the DIRGE this evening.

 

[Soldi]

Was this not literally YEARS BEFORE YOU WERE BORN?

Only six years, but I’ve ALWAYS known of it and DONT KNOW WHY

 

[Suomi]

The lead singer when he went on The Voice in 2016

[Kala]

UGH now this one is RANCID.

I’ve never heard it in my life!

 

[Lucille]

Please tell me Portugal aren't about to bring us all down as they often do.

I’m happy if it’s misery done WELL like Norway.

 

[Penelope]

Please tell me Portugal aren't about to bring us all down as they often do.

Oh of course they fucking are.

 

[ButterTart]

The lead singer when he went on The Voice in 2016

Nice to see he abandoned pop to start a new life driving the barge for Rosie and Jim.

[Madison]

Who keeps inviting them?

 

[dmlaw]

to be fair, it sounds completely different amongst everything else?

Sure, but it's going to give Terry an excuse for an awful lot of 'they don't listen to a lot of rap in Iceland' when they probably just have higher standards.

 

[Lucille]

Is this called vanilla and chocolate?!?

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Wall to wall terror.

 

[COB]

Probably the best looking man on that stage so far tonight, so that's something.

 

[ButterTart]

I do Mr Vain, Scatman John and Its Like That too

I feel like you should have told us about this much sooner.

I can do Wild Wild West.

Portugal were AMAZING in the early 90s, but they totally lost the plot in 1995.

Its good to keep some secrets in a relationship.

 

[Lucille]

Sure, but it's going to give Terry an excuse for an awful lot of 'they don't listen to a lot of rap in Iceland' when they probably just have higher standards.

They did bring this queen 2 years later

This sounds like one of those losing schools in the ALL STATE CHOIR COMPETITION from SISTER ACT 2.
