1989, the number, another poll - something to do while you count the minutes until POPTIMISM TONIGHT AT THE UNION TAVERN (ahem).

Only EIGHT picks this time because Tone Loc's "Wild Thing" was a duplicate.

My top 15. Note contrariness in the Neneh, De La and SoulIISoul picks, although I maintain these are all better than the songs that made the P&J list.

I wish I could share the Cookie Crew track with you all. It is quite superb.

1. Kate Bush – “The Sensual World”
2. Cookie Crew – “Born This Way (Let’s Dance)”
3. Neneh Cherry – “Manchild”
4. The Sundays – “I Won” (from 1989 Peel session)
5. The Sundays – “Can’t Be Sure”
6. Kate Bush – “Rocket’s Tail”
7. De La – “Eye Know”
8. Soul II Soul – “Get A Life”
9. Throwing Muses – “Dizzy”
10. Prince – “Batdance”
11. Neneh Cherry – “The Next Generation”
12. KORITFW!!
13. De La – “Say No Go”
14. Stone Roses – “Fools Gold 9.53”
15. De La – “The Magic Number”

I was just listening to the Cookie Crew the other day - the superb Rok Da House and Got to Keep on. Born this Way is even better though but I only have it on tape :(

The Sensual World is marvellous - starting with church bells and then using the sound of a whip as a key part of the rhythm track is just genius.
