[Poll #1432757]

*Bob's 'Can We Fix It' was nominated, but technically only number one for a few days in 2001 so I've slotted in firm 2001 chart-topper Mambo No.5 in its place as requested. The fact that this is out of alphabetical order is symptomatic of my spreadsheet-organisation skills rather than any deep conspiracy.

My how time flies aka stuff I truly hated then but have now ticked

Feeder - overplayed by self at student indie disco & grew thoroughly sick of it, I like it much better now I don't have to take it so seriously

Pied Piper - hahahaha I totally see the value and merit in this song now

Oxide & Neutrino - this was on the Tomb Raider soundtrack or something and hence it was to be abhorred

Crazy Town - this needed a Dancefloor Moment to be appreciated properly (ie someone I fancied at the time professed a liking for it and I volunteered to go up and dance with him to it)

Explanatory note: to give you an idea of how indie our indie disco was, Gorillaz were thought 'too cheesy' to get played.

We totally cained Chop Suey though - it is still awesome+++

I hated Chop Suey at the time ("not proper metal" -excellent turnaround from Kittie there, fifteen-year-old me) but have since realised it is brilliant.

The WHOLE THING is Dancefloor Moment! (I am aware how deeply embarrassing my love of this is but I just can't stop)

I am not sure I can tick it, despite adoring it at the time due to AN GIRL I was totally in love with because I prefer misogyny anthem 'Revolving Door' -ALL ABOARD THE SHAMEBOAT

taking a good long look at the SHAMEBOAT

I'm listening to it on Spotify now, and can see the case for it being extremely horrible whilst also being excited to find THE COMPLETE CRAZY TOWN on Spotify.

When I get back to having Spotify (and, y'know, a house) I am SO listening to that.

it is made better with JB-S, though. Out of context, I'm not sure I can bring myself to like it.

Didn't you like Puddle Of Mudd? I am sure you can find room in your heart for Crazy Town.
