poptimistsPopfrenzy '98 continues in Now 40 with Billie, Fatboy Slim and DJ DAZ!!!! making their first appearances on a Now (the latter in the guise of BUS STOP). The Spice Girls slide towards their end but the pop world they left behind is thriving.
Now 39 was closely fought but "Never Ever" pulled ahead to win it - double All Saints for your consideration this time - with Pulp, Cornershop and the Spice Girls close behind among a number of high-scoring contenders.

Perpetual Motion!
Barbara Tucker!
Adam Garcia! (tho I can guess what the song is)
Kerri-Ann!
LOS UMBRELLOS??????? They sound great tho.
(I would also like to make it very clear that I am not ticking "Under The Bridge" because the Red Hot Chilli Peppers are irredeemable, NOT because their version is inviolate. That shouldn't need saying in this company I hope! (But say it I must))

Adam Garcia was in Saturday Night Fever and released this, and since then has been in some films, most memorably Coyote Ugly. When Kylie did "an audience with..." he sang Better The Devil with her.
Kerri-Ann was an Irish pop girl who didn't get very far at all.

Basically if you have any affection for Trapped In The Closet and do not tick 'Be Careful' you are lying to yourself.
She's the aunt of the girl in the R Kelly sex tape innit.

Date: 2006-04-27 12:47 pm (UTC)Three Liongs 98 is a worse record than Three Liongs 96 but I like the idea of a record continually being updated topically.
Steps begin to come into their own here.
3 votes ALREADY for Eagle Eye Cherry - the mind boggles!
What is Don Henley doing here?

Date: 2006-04-27 08:24 pm (UTC)-I'm now listening to this NOW, and it really is the best of times and the worst of times. End of the second batch and start of the third batch possibly the worst run in any Now so far.
-The real shame (if I take the non-love for Karen Ramirez as temporary insanity) are the low scores of the final seven, though. Some choice cuts there, for all their obscurity.
YSI fun with:
* Kerri-Ann - Do you love me boy?

* Los Umbrellos - No tengo dinero
http://download.yousendit.com/2C193AC15E94AB38
* Perpetual Motion - Keep on dancin' (let's go)
