TiBB's Favourite #1 of the 1990s! [Results!]

[Shaun]

Thank you for sticking with this throughout... I'm unsure whether I'll go ahead with an 80s version because not many of us will be particularly aware of anything beyond the obvious classics.

10 songs remain and in this final round, you must merely rank them from best to worst. There aren't exactly any obscure tracks here, but just in case, those ten songs are...

Once we've got around 20 votes or so, I'll look to close the voting and announce the final countdown. Which song will join Bad Romance and Pure Shores? That's up to you. :spin2:

also wtf is up with Gabrielle making it this far?

I knew as soon as the randomiser website put 5 of them in the same QF it'd dent their chances, but I assumed Wannabe and Say You'll Be There would still make it.

Fugees's rising 1 place :love:

[caprimint]

Great winner :clap1:

Nothing Compares 2 U was ROBBED though :oh:

[MB.]

We miss 90s Gwen

[Liam-]

Believe being so high is gross

[Shaun]

We can all rest now, safely in the knowledge that Xtina >>> Britney

[Mitchell]

And that there is the tea

[Strictly Jake]

I mean Dont speak is good. But best song of the 90s I doubt, scuse the pun

[Niamh.]

Great result [emoji3060][emoji1635]

[James]

I think Don't Speak was my favourite of these songs.

[Niamh.]

Actually my top 3 were the top 3 in that order [emoji16]

[James]

I'd like to see an 80s poll.

[Kate!]

I'd like to see an 80s poll.

I would too :flutter:

[Withano]

Don’t Speak will surely win the entire thing? Surely.

Ya boi called it on the very first round, js.

[Shaun]

I'll definitely research the candidates for an 80s edition but I'll need a while to sort out all the groupings and videos of that, etc.

Hopefully there aren't too many "...what the hell is this?" moments when looking over the list.

[Shaun]

OK so after chopping the one-off charity covers and re-releases of songs dating as far back as 1957 (Jackie Wilson), there are 180 unique #1s from the 1980s and I'm mildly pleased in that there are probably only about 30, at most, that I do not know or recognise by name alone. So I'll arrange those into 9 rounds of 20 and get going in the next few days.

[montblanc]

ugh i always miss the last vote

boom boom robbed :oh:

[Mokka]

Very livable results, and I am here for an 80s round !

[Tony Montana]

Great result! Would've preferred Fugees to have won but still happy with Don't Speak. :clap1:

And yessss @ Christina placing higher than Britney.

[Tony Montana]

Believe being so high is gross

Excuse me it's a bop. :nono:
