    Another fun fact: Like the Spice Girls, Take That had eight Number 1s in the 1990s in the UK Charts, but four Number 1s in the Irish Charts.

    They will always be number 1 in my heart :p:o

    the last two are tough, I'd be happy for either the ones I didn't vote for go through.

    Blur - Country House Vs Run-D.M.C. vs. Jason Nevins - It's Like That

    This is a toughie. I like both for different reasons. I’ll give it to Run DMC because the video is class.

    The B-52's - Love Shack Vs OMC - How Bizarre

    Love Shack easily. Other one is irritating.

    Aqua - Barbie Girl Vs Sarah Brightman & Andrea Bocelli - Con Te Partiro (Time to Say Goodbye)

    Couldn’t be any more polar opposites. I’ll go with Brightman and Bocelli.

    The Saw Doctors - I Useta Lover Vs Shakespears Sister - Stay

    Dislike both. Probably hate Sawdoctors more. Stay gets my reluctant vote.

    Despite all their Number 1s, Boyzone and Westlife did not make it to Round 3!

    Actually delighted OMC is still here, I know there is mixed opinion on it but I really love this song.

    Oasis - Don't Look Back in Anger Vs TLC - No Scrubs - Not mad about this Oasis song but it's better than the other.

    Various Artists - Perfect Day Vs Shamen - Ebeneezer Goode

    Snap! - Rhythm Is a Dancer Vs Britney Spears - ...Baby One More Time - Initially, I had dismissed this song when I first heard it. I grew to appreciate the song's melody after I heard Travis's cover of it!

    Oasis - Don't Look Back in Anger Vs TLC - No Scrubs
    Worthy of a final imo

    Various Artists - Perfect Day Vs Shamen - Ebeneezer Goode
    Has a lot going on in it, in a good way.

    Snap! - Rhythm Is a Dancer Vs Britney Spears - ...Baby One More Time
    Just a personal choice.

    Lou Bega - Mambo No. 5 Vs Bryan Adams - (Everything I Do)
    More fun

    I really thought Tina Turner would have at least one Irish no 1 in the 80s and 90s.
