Romeo is surprisingly low! I'd expected that to be top 10. Probably says more about voter demographic though.

The Isolee comment earlier about covering the song with a band reminded me of Dexter -- the Two Lone Swordsmen remix is them covering it.

...which was paired with a Joy Division cover at the end of Weatherall's fabric mix.

romeo is fucking awesome if you're a girl in a jetta singing it
― the late great, Saturday, 25 August 2012 20:13 (thirteen years ago)
otherwise be very ashamed
what if you're in the jetta en route to getting laid?

because that's how i feel every time i listen to that track.
I Gave You Away is better than Mouth To Mouth. Discus.

if you're getting laid to romeo you're essentially a briny

Vahid's death to false pop-dance crusade would be more convincing if he didn't listen to so much namby pamby post-dubstep.

if i didn't drive around in a jetta that year singing romeo
srsly though i always much much much preferred their "straight house bangers" like set yo body free and flylife, even at the time, as rtc said "womp womp wot it do"
― the late great, Saturday, 25 August 2012 21:48 (thirteen years ago)
my favorite track on that was actually the one SR compared to wings

When all is said and done so do I, over the years "Same Old Show" has become my favourite Jaxx tune I think. But I still think "Romeo" is a great tune.
― Tim F, Saturday, 25 August 2012 21:54 (thirteen years ago)
there's also anything that says "brixton" in the title, the raw shit, and anything called "jaxx nite dub", uh, like that one ronnie richards thing jess and crabbe played in every set that sounds like they're throwing cymbals and kettle drums over the decks at your head
― the late great, Saturday, 25 August 2012 22:06 (thirteen years ago)
yeah Breakaway was total Prince-Not-Prince and amazing. Lucky Star blew my mind bitd too.
this sounds amazing pitched up real fast

"Breakaway" is straight fire. The actual best Jaxx track.
― Eric H., Saturday, 25 August 2012 23:18 (thirteen years ago)
i'm starting to fear that my number 1 isn't going to make it and i genuinely believe it's the best tune of the 00s :( it begins with a 'q'.
― second only to popcorn (or something), Sunday, 26 August 2012 17:42 (thirteen years ago)
No idea, but thank you for reminding me of a very important Q track for the 90s poll!
― formerly EDB (ed.b), Sunday, 26 August 2012 17:59 (thirteen years ago)
now i have no clue, 'q' by kenny larkin?
― second only to popcorn (or something), Sunday, 26 August 2012 18:01 (thirteen years ago)
It ends with ou Vadis
― formerly EDB (ed.b), Sunday, 26 August 2012 18:31 (thirteen years ago)
i see it now.
― second only to popcorn (or something), Sunday, 26 August 2012 18:35 (thirteen years ago)
Set Yo Body Free is their best tune. Tho I like Just 1 Kiss (forget how they titled this) and If I Ever Recover for their restrained house mode.
― Know how Roo feel (LocalGarda), Sunday, 26 August 2012 18:56 (thirteen years ago)
quo vadis is not a 90s track?!?

oh oh oh that's not what he's talking about, sorry
that's what EDB's talking about right, but not or something
That Ronnie Richards thing is filthy. Must dig out that Jon Carter 7 mix next time I'm home, he became woeful but was a great dj "in his day".
― Know how Roo feel (LocalGarda), Sunday, 26 August 2012 19:23 (thirteen years ago)
YES jon carter

wonder if dubtribe will place
Missy Queen's Gonna Die should be number 3.

@lategreat http://www.discogs.com/Jon-Carter-7-Live-1/release/227394
looking at that tracklist brings back some serious memories. this was first place i heard "jaguar" too.
― Know how Roo feel (LocalGarda), Sunday, 26 August 2012 19:53 (thirteen years ago)
No, I mean Quo Vadis by G Man alright, but I was referring to the 90s poll, since that track is indeed from the 90s.
― formerly EDB (ed.b), Sunday, 26 August 2012 20:01 (thirteen years ago)
i got one of those on ur recommendation garda waaaaay back when it came out, love the second half of the both discs to death ... let the bass roll!!!!

that was my dubtribe reference
― the late great, Sunday, 26 August 2012 20:03 (thirteen years ago)
definitely aged more poorly but still a sweet treat
but yeah, that #7 mix ... my life muzik, dooms night, west street mob, luv stuff, harvey's remix of ulysses, women beat their men, two right rongans, frankie bones, tony rohr, dj hmc
brutal selection!
