Moopy's Greatest Dance Anthems - The Results Thread

[big ron]

You just know that when I’m bed-ridden in that sheltered scheme, I’ll be lying there sobbing uncontrollably to ‘Saltwater’ day in day out

Getting some preparation in RIGHT NOW!

When I listened to it earlier I felt nostalgic af

 

[Kate]

The Enya-adjacent vocals are obviously a very important part of the appeal of Saltwater

 

[Zu]

‘Silence’ is emotionally horrific. 10,000,000/10

 

[ButterTart]

Plus Nick Bracegirdle is probably the most unsexiest name in pop.

Eugent Bushpepa AGOG.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Oh God Silence.

 

[COB]

My bracegirdle is straining to breaking point at the moment

 

[AGinAg (37)]

My bracegirdle is straining to breaking point at the moment

I need a new one

 

[ButterTart]

I won't. I did listen. I gave it 4 points. ButterTart to confirm.

I can confirm. It still hurts that you forgot it in the first place, but you made up for it by doing the correct thing.

 

[ButterTart]

Are we all having a moment to Silence?

 

[Zu]

Are we all having a moment to Silence?

TEARS! THE LOT!

 

[jyxz]

Reminds me of an ex I wasted 5 years on

Cunt

 

[AGinAg (37)]

CHANGE IT AND SEE!!

 

[ButterTart]

Our next qualifier: ATB - 9pm (Til I Come), which came 19th.

This is the UK version, which Spotify tries to deny the existence of.

 

[ButterTart]

CHANGE IT AND SEE!!

They don't make songs about sanitary towels anymore. SAD!

 

[jyxz]

And then this cunting song appears!

I’m sure there was an awful TOTP appearance to accompany it.

 

[Kate]

Ahhh this always reminds me of my 5-day bender in Sheffield when I went to the aforementioned not-Gatecrasher

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I had this on tape the week it was released. The Asda sticker tore the cardboard sleeve. I never forgave.

Why did they fucking do that? Virgin Records used to spot weld their stickers on, too.

 

[Superstylin']

I think over the years my go to version is the Tiësto's In Search Of Sunrise remix but the Airscape one is a classic! Fuck it, i even love the original non dance version too.

 

[COB]

Sandstorm, the song that launched a thousand memes (before memes were a THING)

 

[Kate]

YAY my other nomination to make it through.

 

[jyxz]

Oh FFS. I’m sure I’m being trolled now.

Hated Sandstorm with a passion.

 

[Kate]

Just so FRANTIC

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Sandstorm really was fine but too for the straights.

Darude seems like a nice chap however.

 

[ButterTart]

I think I may be slightly ahead because I have adblock on, but anyway...

The song that came in THIRD in this semi-final, Darude - Sandstorm.

 

[Zu]

@ButterTart Did anyone nominate the slightly superior ‘Feel The Beat’? I think I may have forgotten to but HEY HO

 

[ButterTart]

Just so FRANTIC

Exactly why I love it. There's just no let-up in it.

 

[Kate]

Aww, surprise dog

 

[ButterTart]

Oh FFS. I’m sure I’m being trolled now.

Hated Sandstorm with a passion.

This came THIRD!

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Has there ever been another Finnish hit maker?

 

[dmlaw]

Darude taking part in Eurovision was a very odd choice. That said, I would be on board with 808 State for next year's UK entry.

 

[ButterTart]

Fucking Mick Hucknall photobombing the video.

 

[ButterTart]

Darude taking part in Eurovision was a very odd choice. That said, I would be on board with 808 State for next year's UK entry.

Orbital submitted a song in the year Electro Velvet represented us.

 

[COB]

I don't know this one, but speaking of PROBLEMATIC

 

[ButterTart]

Now THIS was a lovely surprise. In at no. 29, Gouryella - Gouryella.

 

[Kate]

What number are we on, btw? And are you revealing the second semi () right after this?

 

[dmlaw]

Has there ever been another Finnish hit maker?

Lordi got into the Top 40 after their Eurovision win.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Oh God at this video. Fuck me Jim Davison was less problematic.

 

[ButterTart]

Such a weird choice for a video.

 

[dmlaw]

Gouryella is a great song but this video really needs to take it's place in the 'problematic shit' thread.
