A moderately successful one hit wonder, from Scarlet, a shortlived power pop trio (then duo), from Hull.
They put out 2 albums between 92-96 and this was the biggest hit they had.
It's a bit on the nose at times and not doing a whole lot for me, probably would have been more at home in the 80's also, but definitely one forgotten in time.

Speaking of tracks probably more at home in the 80's, here's this one, the lead single off Simple Minds' 10th album, Good News From The Next World.
Not their best hit, but it's still got a good kick to as a pop rock/arena rock style anthem and their a band I generally like.
Not one you'll here too much these days, but a decent time.

The biggest hit by far by the Boo Radleys, it's a fun Britpop/indie alt pop number, that doesn't always fully catch me, but I can still get behind it.
This is the title track from their 4th album, having originally been together from the late 80's into the 90's, but they never had success like this again.
It's catchy, maybe just a bit oversaturating for me personally, but that only knocks it down from the top 200 to just outside.
They've since reunited in recent years and put out a few new albums.

Synthpop still going strong into 1995, with this, the lead single off the Human League's 7th album, this one still holds up, even if its heart is in the 80's.
I've a soft spot for the Human League, not their biggest hit and not one that gets too much playtime these days,
But a good time.

Still a good time, the debut single off their 3rd album, Bizarre Fruit and still a big hitter in the UK upon its release.

Weird one this, originally released as a single purely on a 1994 Sting compilation, Pato Banton came along and essentially made a whole new song.
It's weirdly catchy though, nothing mindblowing, but a nice blend of Sting's soft rock, combined with Banton's Jamaican stylings.
An odd remix.

A very quick one today as I was working late at concerts here.
Shut Up and Dance are probably the first proper breakbeat/garage act to show up.
This is their take on Duran Duran's Save A Prayer and it's quite solid actually.

50. Primal Scream - Rocks (Now 27) _________________
Moving swiftly along, and back to Eternal, the 5th of 6 singles on their debut album, all of which have shown up here.
This version being remixed by producer Nigel Lowis.
It's fine, light soul pop and similar to their other singles, which aren't massively my thing.

50. Primal Scream - Rocks (Now 27) _________________
More hypnotic trip hop from Massive Attack, this time with vocals from Everything But The Girl's Tracey Thorn.
Could be higher easily, this a very much slept on album in the Massive Attack catalogue.
The title track and second single, following up on Sly, though I slightly prefer this.
You're always getting something good here.
