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.

Are there actually any current boybands it's "cool" to like? On same level as Sugababes/Girls Aloud?

Ah boy bands are diff things to Sons of Robbie I think, Robbie I associate with mawkish, populist, semi-credible balladry.

Busted (RIP) were I guess, Cis and I have a soft spot for McFly. So, er, no!

That's because it's not very good, Lex.

He only rly becomes the Robbie I know and venerate around Sing When You're Winning, aka BEST POP ALBUM BEFORE WWTNS bar none.

'Lazy Days' is my favourite Robbie single. One of the few I can stand.
