Do the bartman is actually better than some current chart toppers.

FACT

Most Oasis' catalogue.

None of it really stands up now apart from Slide Away and The Masterplan.

I remember loving Acquiesce but then I heard it again a month or so ago and Noel's voice sounds like a giant foghorn..

Culture Beat - Mr Vain
Snap - Rhythm is a dancer

Both classics

What about The Outhere Brothers - Boom boom boom or Babylon Zoo - Spaceman?

Wish they still made tunes like those.

Lets talk about secs - Salt n Pepper.

Reminds me of a girl I fancied throughout most of my secondary school years...she was way out of my league, but now she's fat and I'm aging wonderfully (at least that's what I tell myself).

Sean Kievney the breakfast DJ on 6 music played the banjo on cotton eye joe

Jump Around by house of Pain - was a good song once, but during the 90s every nightclub played it every time I was there (indie nights, student nights, "handbag" type nightclubs - they all played it) . Got boring very quick

who were those kids who wore their trousers back to front?

Most Oasis' catalogue.

I still think definitely maybe is a great album but most of the rest of their stuff is pretty much pants.

'Wake up boo' hated it then hate it now but everyone seemed to love it.

'Dancing in the moonlight' Was it 90's? Most annoying and over played song ever made. Reminds me of pretentious Jack Johnson types dancing about with dreadlocks.

Cotton Eye Joe - great tune

Ha ha I actually bought that single!

Rednex - Pop in an Oak. It was the same song as Cotton Eye Joe, but even worse.

Unbelievable - EMF. At the time I thought it was great (well, great-ish). Heard it the other day and it was just whiny and utterly lame.
