The last of 1997, and if you think some of the big hits are being held over until next time...you'd be right. But the nation was in NO MOOD for pop party fun as - sob! bawl! - DI DIED, and weren't we all glad that Sir Richard Ashcroft was there to help us through it. There's no sign of Elton on this Now, by the way, even though he bossed the charts - to sully such a beautiful track by including it on a compilation would of course be unthinkable, so you'll have to save your ticks.
Hanson's "Mmmmbop" won Now 37 at a canter, after tying with the Spice Girls for a long time. The Cardigans ended up in third. And now, over to you lot.

Date: 2006-04-20 12:40 pm (UTC)Judging from the vile SexySongs, I am guessing that this Now was circa The Full Monty. Urrrrrghhhh.
Has there ever been a worse run of three on a Now than The Verve/Oasis/Embrace?!
