It may have been Chrisrj but in Britain it hit the charts in 1998 - Quite often we lag behind or get ahead of ourselves.

Yep. A great sample from The Jackson's 'Can you feel it?' but the choice of lyrics left a lot to be desired.

'Never ever' - All Saints One of their better efforts
'Kiss the rain' - Billy Myers Never really got me, remeber she was kinda scary tho!
'You're still the one' - Shania Twain Hmm, oki-sh
'It's like that' - Run DMC vs Jason Nevins This wa sa good good tune
'Barbie girl' - Aqua Confession time - I bought this :S Please, no mocking, I was 13. Cant stand it at all now!
'Whine and grine' - Prince Buster ??
'All my life' - KC-I and Jojo Quite good
'Dance the night away' - The Mavericks Awful, hated this and it was played EVERYWHERE - could not escape it!
'Save Tonight' - Eagle eye Cherry Pretty good, but didn't his follow up sound exactly the same?
'Feel it' - Tamperer feat. Maya Was ok for the time
'I just wanna be loved' - Culture Club not such a good comeback - Madness's was better :) 'Lovestruck - I've fallen for a lampost..' hehe
'Sweetest thing' - U2 ok
'Crush' - Jennifer Paige Love it - great lyrics.
'Every time' - Janet Jackson don't recall
'Perfect 10' - Beautiful South Hmm, not their best by all means
'True Colours' - Phil Collins Err, not so good
'Gangster trippin'' - Fatboy Slim Funky
'More than a woman' - 911 slightly laughable
'Life is a flower' - Ace of Base Not a good comeback either - didnt mind 'Always Have, Always Will'. I used to love them in their early days too.
