It's interesting to see how poorly Gangsta's faring this round considering its total domination in the qualifiers.

That's because it actually has competition now, think that the same happened to Kraftwerk & A-ha in the 80s game. I'll probably upvote Coolio for the time being since the forum voters didn't go easy on old Eeezy

#20 on my list 17th here

 

The Shamen were at #4 on my list, the highest faller so far

 

Half of my bottom 10 are gone and four from my top 10 but none of the five in the middle!

Tasmin Archer doing much better than expected, had that down as a pleasant also-ran. I suppose it's a tune doesn't annoy anyone in particular for downvoting.

Spice Girls (17th) were exactly that on my list.

The Shamen (18th) were 6th. Very fond of that one as it encapsulates the spirit (insanity) of the decade, but I suppose this is a music-based opinion poll rather than which one raises most of a smile.

[TQR 13,247]

Er @Great Uncle Bulgaria, where did you copy that list from?

That went a few hours earlier, Mr Womble.

 

Have a free hit somewhere else

 

In fact, your whole list is aged.
