Lovebirds - The Limit

Heard the artist: No
Heard the song: No

My rating: ★☆☆☆☆

Review

This is kind of repetitive and mundane. It sounds familiar, like a track from those compilation albums where you would skip most of it just to listen to the songs you know. This would have been a skippable track. I’m sure this works for some people but not for me. I can’t find anything interesting about it that would make me go and look for it to listen to. Maybe there are better remixes of it but I’m not going to look for them. Not a good pick.

I really liked Kosheen back then, the first 2 albums were great and I liked Sian Evans' voice

Hide U and Wish were my 2 favourite of theirs

Chemical Brothers - Hey Boy Hey Girl

Review

The Chemical Brothers are a bit hit and miss for me. Did you pick good a one here? Yes you did. What a great song this is. Always liked this one and remember it back in the day. Really dramatic music, what are those sounds? I just love them. Dancefloor used to be mobbed when the DJ spun this hit. Lyrics are limited but it is all about the music here. Great video also for this one. TCB released a few good hits around this time, but I haven't heard much from them lately if they are still making music. Brilliant pick

Ah those Saturday nights in Tripod

Her voice is amazing. I was in Bristol then so saw them live loads, great times

Catch is a brilliant tune, surprised it wasn't a bigger hit.

Really like this one by them as well, a bit more chilled but still very singalongable.

EDIT: Went to go add these to my Spotify playlists, only to find out that their first two albums aren't on Spotify, that's a shame.

DJ Sammy ft Yanou - Heaven

Heard the artist: Yes
Heard the song: Yes

My rating: ★★★★☆

Review

Love this song. This was definitely a category song. The original Bryan Adams song is great and this is possibly the best remix I’ve heard of a classic song, there were loads out around this time. I had not heard this one in awhile so it was to hear this again. Real nostalgia with this one and I might be over hyping it but damn it, it is a great pick

Red through and through

I used to work the burger stalls at Ashton Gate as a student. Being fairly big lads, me and my two mates always got stuck in the away end for the derby and got serious abuse, so I hate gasheads!

Fatboy Slim - Rockafeller Skank

Heard the artist: Yes
Heard the song: Yes

My rating: ☆☆☆☆☆

Review

Well what can I say. This is the first and likely only zero rating I will give. You just picked a song I hate with a passion. My best mate back in the day loved Fatboy slim songs and I was the opposite. Wait, I lie, there was one song ‘right here right now’ I think it was called, that was decent. Anyways, we had many arguments over this act. I just don’t get this song, it is repetitive and annoying. Please tell me I’m not the only one that hates it here. I’m sure a lot of people love it and that’s fine with me. Very unfortunate pick but I just can’t rate it. Worst song in the game.

SineadSpears

sorted !! :pac:

My rating: ★★★★☆

Review

Brilliant, love this song. So many memories with this one. Love the music and lyrics and just a really upbeat song. I had totally forgotten about one, when I saw it in my PM I got really nostalgic. Thank you for that. I can see myself on the dancefloor to this one, hands in the air,
friends around and all singing. Really reminds me of Summer. Interested to read that these guys are from Canada though they are Eurodance.

At the mid way point, the lead changes yet again with CeeJay and Shelly jumping to the top closely followed by Barna and Seph. EN starting to find relegation impossible to avoid.

When Rockefellar Skank first came out I couldn't make out the line "funk soul brother" at all. I thought the last word was "rubber" and that the song was basically an advertising jingle for some company making.....rubber stuff.

Check it out now, Funzo(?) Rubber

EDIT: Funk soul, funk's your, whatever. >_<
