To think this song can't be serious. Please tell me it was created as a joke?

[whattheactual1]

Just came across this song and video on my youtube. Apparently it reached number 1!

I'm traumatised from just watching it!

It was meant as a joke surely?

Oh, man...

Didn't Natalie Imbruglia go out with Ross from Friends for years?

Yes. Yes she did. Not Skin. I'm sure Skin is great, but she never dated Natalie. Try telling that to my husband though

This thread has made my night. Cracking songs.

So so so many of my favourite tracks have been listed here.. I drive my DH bonkers with the amount of cheese I'm prepared to listen to..

I missed off Richard Marx too.. Ooh and Sophie b Hawkins. I really need sleep but my brain is now in overdrive!

Anyone remember Shut up and sleep with me?
Fond memories of the vid appalling older relatives

Great tune. Great video. Shit hat.

I loved this song and still listen to it.

Large - there's a radio station where I live (not in the UK) that plays Glenn Madeiros all the time. I'm impressed I still know all the words

We heard Especially For You on the radio at the weekend - DH and I mortified the DC by singing it to each other all the way through. They then mortified us when they announced they'd never heard of Jason and Kylie We are bringing them up all wrong!

Does anyone else remember getting very excited about Miss Selfridge make up bar, especially the nail varnish. They used to bring out new ones every week.

the original the best--- and of course for the folks on here that cant abide the 90s bubblegum techno crap,when musicians actually were muscians

$%%^ musicians

Not RTFT - but Bwitched? Ce La Vie?! Where have you BEEN? Mars?!
That was feckin' huge in the 90s!!

Are you mad that's a brilliant song.

They were before my time I'm afraid.

Just seen this. It was released in 1998. What, are you 5, or 10?
As that's the only possible explanation. How can it be before your time? How old are you to be posting on MN?! Does your mummy know you're out of bed?!

Omg I think I know all the songs on here. Oh! Gone are the days, I am officially ancient.

😩

I thought watching the voice kids was bad enough with none of them knowing what most recent songs where.

It was an era of cheese. See also Aqua, S Club 7, Steps, Boyzone, N'Sync, The Vengaboys and The Cartoons.

THE VENGA BUS IS COMING!

OMG, I love this thread now I'm working my way through it
Vengaboys. Cheese ahoy. I personally preferred "don't wanna be a bus driver, all my life. Gonna pack my bags and leave this town, far behind. Fly away, on Venga airways, flying high to the Ibiza sky.
"WOH! We're going to eat pizza Ibiza"

Don't forget 5ive. If you've got the feeling jump up on the ceiling. A mantra to live your life by

People saying this is a song from their childhood. OK. I am old then

It's one from when I'm extremely late teens. So still hold a nostalgic view.

Don't forget 5ive. If you've got the feeling jump up on the ceiling. A mantra to live your life by

Were they the ones "Everybody get up now?" My little sis used to bloody love them.

Yes I think so. TBH I was too indie and navel-gazing for 90s pop, but I'm loving it now!

Although thanks to this thread I've discovered that I know all the word to Two Princes by the Spin Doctors. No wonder I can't remember anything important these days, my brain is full of 90s song lyrics!

However. In 1988 I was 10 years old and Bros were the dog's bollocks

I remember everyone going round with Grolsch bottle tops on their shoes when I was in the last year of primary

too much (any really) "cheese" is constipating

And it wasn't me. Shaggy classics.

"It wasn't me".... basically been caught out "banging on the bathroom floor" and still had the nerve to say it wasn't me.....
