    but for sing-a-long-ability and just the craic of ​always changing the lyrics so that you're screaming "Don't Look Back You W@nker" in your friends face

    I have loved a very sheltered life!

    Thanks for running Kol. Some great memories of my youth. From dancing to Saturday Night at the local GAA disco, and my first concert going to see Blur in the RDS, followed quickly by Oasis in Pairc Ui Chaoimh, and my beloved Take That, I enjoyed every second of this!

    We need a 3rd place playoff. Whigfield needs to be on the podium.

    Not a fan of either so a sympathy vote for Whigfield from me.

    Time to say Goodbye - It's not very typically 90s but I prefer it.

    Sarah and Andrea stalled at Number 2 in the UK Charts. That raises the topic of songs that reached Number 1 in the Irish Charts, but not in the UK Charts, and vice versa. That could be a Forum Games Tournament in its own right, or maybe just one for discussion in the Music forum.

    This is a great idea, now we actually have all the whigfield lovers in one place so they can be easily identified for future reference

    Speaking of Whigfield, who is Danish, that gives me another idea for a possible tournament: Greatest Song from a Nordic Act. The Nordic countries are Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland and Iceland.

    That would just be an Abba contest
