Ignoring the 10 I don't know/remember getting harder to find ones to downvote. Only heard it once or twice 28 (?)  years ago but from what I recall the Will Smith song is just a cover of the less than wonderful Forget me Not by Patrice Rushen with some rapping on top so down it goes.

If you don’t know the songs, YouTube is your friend. Have a skim listen. I promise I will when we do the 60s game.

A thousand times this. Don't just rely on fading memories or complete ignorance, it's music FFS, you can listen to it! I've taken this game as an opportuniy to become acquainted with stuff I don't know or haven't listened to in years.

Yeah this has been really helpful in deciding which are priorities to down vote

 

Quite like the White Town track that I was unfamilliar with prior to this though

The one good thing about having LL Cool J here is that it reminded me of a superior cover of Ain't Nobody.

Was tempted to up Barbie Girl for the LOLs (a solid message of be wary of scary bald guys telling you to go party with them) but went for something actually good instead.

Of the Spice Girls track this one is probably the one I would have upvoted. Though that is probably because my daughter played it all the way through our holiday last summer because she was using it in a show

I didn't do mine at midnight so i'm here to save spice up your life. Even if for a few hours.

 I have to confess that 2 become 1 would have been my favorite Spice Girl song this round to vote up, but I need my points to push other songs...

Still I like 2 become 1 a lot!

It's confusing though because the 1 at the end looks like a score, so I will be glad to see the back of it.
