The History Of Pop Part 41 aka I-I-I've notice you around, I find you very attractive...

After the HIGH DRAMA of Now 40, the next instalment was always going to be a letdown - some lame tracks, end-of-98 filler and what looks to me a clear winner. But I've been surprised before, for instance by "Because We Want To" overhauling "Teardrop" and winning the last Now poll (with Fatboy Slim in 2nd). Billie and Fatboy are back this time, mixing it up with the Vengaboys and old now 'favourite' BIG PHIL (no, not that Big Phil). UB40 are there too! It's just like old times!


[Poll #720983]


TIXYLIX.

OK, you all remember the Mel B solo one what was produced by Missy, I presume, and you all remember it's a hott beatt and a pretty good song all round, yeah?

But do you remember the SPOKEN WORD OUTRO????? It is maybe the most audacious thing I have ever heard in my life, having spent the past three minutes forcibly asserting her 'street' 'cred' Ms B then proceeds to stumble drunkenly into the studio and insert a raddled-ladette monologue in BROAD LIVERPUDLIAN (or is it Yorkshire? I get confused with northern accents) along the lines of "yeah, you know I said I wanted you back right, you know, well, actually, I don't HAAAA HAAAAA HAAAA".

Look, right, all I've been saying is that I want you back
I want you back and I want you back
And I do
Well, I think I do
I think I did
Wait a minute, just let me seriously think about it...
In fact NO! I don't want you back at all
You go your way, I'll go mine,
I'm outta here
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
See ya!
Uhh Uhh Uhh Uhh
Owwwwwwwwwww
Hehehe

tbh I saw the name Missy alongside Mel B and thought "Shurely Shome Mistake?"

I own 4 of these, I think (Cardigans - the video for this was quite disgraceful btw - All Saints, Fatboy and Stardust).

I don't own, but should, Spice Girls and Alisha's Attic, probably the 2 best songs on here.

I would love to play 'I Want You Back' to Missy now, and see if she even remembers it.
