It's on at the moment.

Ant and Dec's Let's Get Ready to Rhumble, 2 Unlimited's No Limts etc.

Great!

They've just shown a bit on Big Brother housemates pop careers.

Nichola's The Game, Craig's record, Dean playing the guitar and Paul saying he's lived his life as an international popstar.

There must be plenty of records out there that annoy the hell out of everyone. What's your choice? Mine would be 'In the Summertime' - Mungo Jerry. Don't know what it is about that song but it drives me bananas.

[Janette]

Surely the most annoying record has to be Bob The Builder!!!!!!!


I still cringe at the thought of it!

[Janette]

Ooooh just thought of another one!


Unchained Melody by Gareth Gates!


I HATE THAT VERSION!!!!!!!!!!!

Awww. I quite liked "Bob the Builder".

In fact, I used to sing along with it.

[Janette]

Yes I know!

I actually thought Nicola's record was very good. I won't comment on poor Craig's offering tho!

Just about anything by Gareth Gates annoys me (sorry to any GG fans out there!). I started out really liking him, admiring his pluck and thinking he was sweet and had a lovely voice. Now I just tut when I hear his nasal singing.

Speaking of Ant & Dec, their world cup song "We're on The Ball" drove me nuts - not least because Dean & Bubble's song was far better!!!

Completely agree Ig.

My all time least favourite record just has to be Mr Blobby by Mr Blobby. Listen to it at your peril.

I still can't believe it was actually the Christmas No. 1 song in 1993!!

Wasn't it lovely to see the delectable Mr Clarke delivering his famous 'international pop star' line last night.

Ah, memories . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

One of my least favourite records is 'Shaddap-a-your-Face' by Joe Dolce . . . . I wish he had!

[WILDCHILD]

Don't know if any of you will know it but what about Daphne and Celestes, 'ooh stick you' for an annoying record!

[Romantic Old Bird]

Great link Miriam - only not for Blobby

This one is pretty grim

My youngest son was born the week this one was number one! He's never forgiven me for it!

My youngest son was born the week this one was number one! He's never forgiven me for it!

Saying that got me wondering as to what was number one when i was born. if you go tohttp://www.theofficialcharts.com/html/index.shtml

you can see the full list of number ones, the pet shop boys with "heart" was number one when i was born.

However it only goes back to 1952

[Princess Pink Pants]

Frankie Goes To Hollywood were no1 with Relax when I was born! Cool!

[Boris]

My youngest son was born the week this one was number one! He's never forgiven me for it!

And who can blame him for it ......

[Kaz]

Great link, sara - thanks for that!

No. 1 when I was born was . . . . . . . . .

Buddy Holly - It Doesn't Matter Anymore.

Come on, everyone - don't be shy about giving your age away!!!

[LEE]

I'm a sixties child. Number one when I was born was...

Gerry & the Pacemakers: I Like it.

[James]

According to the list Suzi Quatro got to number 1 on the day I was born with Devil Gate Drive.


Another website like this is http://www.everyhit.co.uk.
You can find out the highest chart position of any record there.

Bit controversial this, but don't you think the No1s list shows how pop has really gone downhill in the last 10 years? Just compare the records that got to number 1 in the 70s and 80s to the ones that got to the top in the 90s.

[WILDCHILD]

Mine was Sister Sledge - Frankie. Never heard of that of that one before - I know the group but not that song.
