Boardsies greatest song of the 90s - Live Thread

Declan A Walsh

The Prodigy - Firestarter. Great song. The other is awful.

Green Day - Basket Case. Nice punky edge to it. The other song is not great.

The Chemical Brothers - Hey Boy Hey Girl. Catchy tune. I don't know the other song.

I will abstain on last as I don't like the first and can't recall the second.

Also Starring LeVar Burton

The Prodigy - Firestarter

Green Day - Basket Case

Belly - Feed The Tree

Ace of Base - All That She Wants


Reasons: The song I prefer more in each match.

I was sure basket case would receive more than one nom, I almost left it off my list because it seemed too obvious to me. I guess good ridance is probably the "obvious" green day song

Saint Etienne - Only Love Can Break Your Heart. It's alright but better than the other.

Pulp - Do You Remember The First Time. Same logic as above.

The Prodigy - Everybody in the Place. Great tune (my nomination!). Not one of Oasis' better songs.

Enigma vs Placebo - Abstain - not mad about either song.

Q/Match 13
The Beautiful South - A Little Time
Genuinely tough, really like both. I once saw St Etienne and she couldn't remember the words though, so I've marked them down

Q/Match 14
Pulp - Do You Remember the First Time
Tough as well, but Pulp wins out for me

Q/Match 15
The Prodigy - Everybody in the Place
These are all tough! I remember losing my nut to this as a young'un though. Let's go!

Q/Match 16
Placebo - Nancy Boy
Not tough at all, one of my favourite bands of the 90s

Oasis - Champagne Supernova

These picks for me, quintessential 90s tracks imo.

No opinion on the other ones

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Saint Etienne - Only Love Can Break Your Heart - neither are great though.

Baby Bird - You're Gorgeous - brings back some good memories.

Oasis - Champagne Supernova - whether you love or hate Oasis, they had some classics.

Placebo - Nancy Boy - I like the Enigma track, but Nancy Boy is a favourite from my teens.

Oasis.

Only the one vote from me in this one.

I can see why the rest only received one nomination.

Saint Etienne- Only love.....

Pulp- Do you remember......

The Prodigy- Everybody.....

Placebo- Nancy Boy
