Do we include a spice girls song?

I like Changingman, um....

I like "for the dead", but..

Oh, what happens when the other singles aren't distinctive enough for to appear in hatey subconsciousness?

Mark G, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:07 (fifteen years ago) link

Surely catherine Wheel will be on the britrock worst song poll?

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:07 (fifteen years ago) link

Poll needs a Nate Dogg option

Dom Passantino, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:08 (fifteen years ago) link

Seahorses ought to be Love Is The Law.

Scik Mouthy, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:08 (fifteen years ago) link

No to Spice Girls, only shite men allowed

Tom D., Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:08 (fifteen years ago) link

btw as for Gay Dad, "To Earth With Love" is worse than "Joy"

Just got offed, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:08 (fifteen years ago) link

I like changingman too, but its his best known single and it may as well go on.
We can also do a best song of the same list if anyone wants to

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:08 (fifteen years ago) link

Mark G, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:09 (fifteen years ago) link

dubstar - stars (again a favourite of mine but you never know who's hatin')

Just got offed, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:10 (fifteen years ago) link

Ok i'll shove a spice girls song only on the best song poll then!
ok i'll put radiohead on even though i like that song.

oh yeah mama is going on! but i'll replace it with Wannabe on the best song poll.

Good call on the Dubstar! thats a shite song i might vote for!

Just got offed, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:14 (fifteen years ago) link

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:14 (fifteen years ago) link

HOLD UP

Dom Passantino, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:18 (fifteen years ago) link

Maybe several ILXors should do a brief piece as to why a particular track should get the vote ahead of Stereocolourcast?

Dom Passantino, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:20 (fifteen years ago) link

Should the best Song poll ahve the same songs as the worst song poll'or do we take best song nominations here?

Spice Girls - Wannabe will be on any best song poll. so nominate away if you want.

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:21 (fifteen years ago) link

Whats the best All Saints song?
It's gonna be all inclusive!

any song between 1994-99 by a british act.

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:23 (fifteen years ago) link

"Pure Shores" might win my vote overall but it's 2000, shit :(

Just got offed, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:24 (fifteen years ago) link

this thread is almost making me go up in the attic to check out those special free cds (ie. when free cds were still special) that Q gave away from time to time during these years.

in fact, i'm sure there was a brit-pop centric one ?

cant wait for a similar poll in 2018 when we all passionately agree that Does If Offend You.. are the worst band of the nu-rave era.

having said that, if i'm still checking out ILM in 10 more years ..
oh sod it, i know i will.

so, what about Robbies major label backed brit pop support band of the time, Carson ?

did they even manage one hit from their spot in the limelight ?

mark e, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:26 (fifteen years ago) link

mark e i think we should make "The SAS..." our earl brutus nomination, agreed?

Just got offed, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:28 (fifteen years ago) link

i prefer the track "your majesty, we are here" but it wasn't a single

Just got offed, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:28 (fifteen years ago) link

Right nominate song songs from 1994-1999 please.

mark e, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:32 (fifteen years ago) link

mark e i MEANT for the best of!
