Which Mansun ?
Charlatans?

What else have I missed? Anything from 1994-1999. Doesn't have to be Britpop,just british. So if anyone wants to nominate big hits Prodigy,Spice Girls, Sneaker pimps,Moloko or anything go ahead.

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:12 (eighteen years ago)

Fat Les - Vindaloo

chap, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:17 (eighteen years ago)

good call

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:19 (eighteen years ago)

Nominations end at 2pm.
So get them in.

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:20 (eighteen years ago)

I'm swapping the Suggs song to Cecilia

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:24 (eighteen years ago)

King Of The Kerb is a worse Echobelly song, no?

aldo, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:25 (eighteen years ago)

ok i'll change it. I just listed all the songs I could think of.Dont necessarily hate them (ie i like the verve song) but I want it to be all inlclusive..
I picked that Manics song (despite being a manics fan) as its the worst thing they ever did IMO

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:28 (eighteen years ago)

I dunno whether to include Terrorvision - Tequila (it did have a crappy remix that got to no1 bought by the britpop loving masses)

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:30 (eighteen years ago)

Any nominations for
Sneaker Pimps
Moloko
Divine Comedy
Mansun
Ash
Perfume
60ft Dolls
Prodigy
Fatboy Slim
Spice Girls
Belle & Sebastian?
Charlatans
Auteurs
Anything else 1994-99?

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:32 (eighteen years ago)

Divine Comedy

National fucking Express

Dom Passantino, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:34 (eighteen years ago)

Which Mansun ?

"Wide Open Space" or "She Makes My Nose Bleed".

Charlatans is "One To Another" - at least from that era ("The Only One I Know" if you include the baggy era)

Geir Hongro, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:35 (eighteen years ago)

Prodigy's gotta be Firestarter, though it's not actually shit. Baby's Got a Temper is, but that's 00s.

chap, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:36 (eighteen years ago)

Oh, you mean worst? Then a lot of those songs are bad picks. Besides, the worst UK singles of the 90s were by the likes of All Saints and Eternal.

Geir Hongro, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:39 (eighteen years ago)

Proposed changes:

Travis - Why Does It Always Rain On Me (for the "is it because I lied when I was 17" line, mainly)
Bluetones - Is Marblehead Johnson worse than Slight Return?

It's a pity the Cranberries were Irish, they would own this.

aldo, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:41 (eighteen years ago)

Where is gurning monkey chops boy?

NickB, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:42 (eighteen years ago)

Then propose some songs Geir and the truth will out.

Raw Patrick, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:44 (eighteen years ago)

Did Sneaker Pimps have a hit apart from 6 Underground? I quite like that song.

chap, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:44 (eighteen years ago)

Moloko has to be Sing It Back.

aldo, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:45 (eighteen years ago)

Snaeker Pimps also had Spin Spin Sugar at least.

Raw Patrick, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:45 (eighteen years ago)

Is Taxlo$$ maybe the worst Mansun single?

aldo, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:48 (eighteen years ago)

If anyone can actually name a Gay Dad song i'll put it in

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:49 (eighteen years ago)

How High for worst Charlatans single?

aldo, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:50 (eighteen years ago)

Gay Dad - I think Joy was worse than To Earth With Love.

aldo, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:52 (eighteen years ago)

B&S will be 'legal man' even though it's not awful.

fatboy slim - 'right here right now'.

luke haines has never released a bad song, ever.

mansun - 'stripper vicar' by a country mile.

sneaker pimps - pffft.

perfume! the leicester band? they were alright but only released like two songs, no?

i think we're forgetting BALLROOM. and THE DANDYS.

CharlieNo4, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:53 (eighteen years ago)

Is Taxlo$$ maybe the worst Mansun single?

die

Just got offed, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:53 (eighteen years ago)

shit xpost you're right, 'taxloss' was AWFUL.

CharlieNo4, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:54 (eighteen years ago)

you all suck

Just got offed, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:54 (eighteen years ago)

Do we need something by Campag Velocet? (To Lose La Trek?)

aldo, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:55 (eighteen years ago)

fatboy slim - 'right here right now'.

No way, Praise You is much more annoying.

chap, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:56 (eighteen years ago)

worst mansun single was "fool", worst mansun song was "we are the boys"

Just got offed, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:56 (eighteen years ago)

Sit Down for James surely

ledge, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:56 (eighteen years ago)

Haha, I'd forgotten about Campag Velocet, they were hilariously awful.

chap, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:57 (eighteen years ago)

suede, animal nitrate or any other suede song

Louis, Fool came out in 2001 so is 2 years too late for the timeframe we're talking about.

aldo, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:58 (eighteen years ago)

stone roses, waterfall

ledge, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:58 (eighteen years ago)

and Campag Velocet - To Lose la Trek

Ledge it has to be 1994-99

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:59 (eighteen years ago)

Needs more Robbie.

NickB, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:59 (eighteen years ago)

you've made "taxloss" your mansun choice, you are cruising for punishment mr neuname

yeah ok fair enough well the worst mansun single probably is stripper vicar then even though i still like it

stone roses, daybreak

Just got offed, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:59 (eighteen years ago)

Wide Open Space should be the Mansun choice. Love Spreads for the Roses - gotta be 1995, not 1989.

Scik Mouthy, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:00 (eighteen years ago)

i <3 wide open space

primal scream, rocks

ledge, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:01 (eighteen years ago)

Come Back To What You Know should be the Embrace tune.

Scik Mouthy, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:01 (eighteen years ago)

Hey Louis I like Mansun , im just putting some hit songs up and people can vote. Im not saying vote mansun. I'll change to Stripper Vicar If you like.
Stone Roses will be 10 Storey Love Song since everyone loved that so much and its the most trad roses song on that album.

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:02 (eighteen years ago)

need some supergrass. richard iii?

ledge, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:02 (eighteen years ago)

ok well if it's any sort of britpoppy hit song then how about spiritualized - medication (even though it's one of the best songs of the era) :P

how about portishead - glory box ffs

Just got offed, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:04 (eighteen years ago)

should just poll these tbh
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Best..._Album_in_the_World...Ever!

ledge, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:04 (eighteen years ago)

also NO SUEDE yet

Just got offed, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:04 (eighteen years ago)

"It's Lulu" should be the pick, not Wake Up Boo.

Mark G, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:05 (eighteen years ago)

Alright for Supergrass, surely?

Scik Mouthy, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 13:05 (eighteen years ago)

Agreed re; It's Lulu.
