    Scatman, it's crap but it's an iconic 90s track so deserves to go through from those nominated.

    Pet Shop Boys - Go West. They're all sh*te, but it seems to be leading and if it helps keep that Scatman crap out. Scatman is a contender with that equally sh*te I'm Blue muck as the most annoying song of all time.

    "Scatman crap"...love it...although I suspect that pun may have been unintentional.

    I'm sorry. I have a pathological dislike for The Pet Shop Boys.

    I think it is because they remind me too much of the 80s and they kept "Fairytale of New York" off the Christmas No. 1 spot.

    Indeed although I suspect the Pogues may have had the last laugh. Vast majority of people would struggle to name the Pet Shop Boys song. In fact, it is even a cheeky quiz question: "Who kept Fairytale of NY off the UK Christmas No 1 chart?"

    I wouldn't have known, but then I don't really keep track of charts.

    I sure could name a lot more PSB songs than Pogues ones though. Fairytale is honestly the only one I know of.

    Edit: the only "who kept what off the number 1 spot" question that I'd know off the top of my head is Vienna/Shuddup Your Face.

    Meat Loaf - I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That) Vs Fool's Garden - Lemon Tree - I have a pathological hatred of that Meat Loaf song (I do like some of his stuff, just not that), and in fairness, the Lemon Tree song is undeniably catchy.

    East 17 - Stay Another Day Vs The B-52's - Love Shack

    Aqua - Barbie Girl Vs Cher - The Shoop Shoop Song (It's In His Kiss) - like both of these actually, but might as well go for the one that's not a cover.

    George Michael - Jesus to a Child Vs Coolio feat. L.V. - Gangsta's Paradise - not really too keen on either, but it's marginally better.

    Totally agree, there are not many songs I hate but that is one of them.
