    Just catching up after being out. Respect to whoever nominated Get Myself Arrested. Very nearly nommed it myself but went for a different Gomez song instead. Hopefully it'll get through later.

    Chemical Brothers - Setting Sun
    - tough one, but I was definitely more Chems than Roses in the 90s

    Q/Match 50
    Chris Isaak - Wicked Game
    - iconic

    Q/Match 51
    The Sundays - Summertime
    - really interesting match up, good nominations. I grew tired of Hazard though

    Q/Match 52
    Smashing Pumpkins - Today
    - really tough choice. At the time I was definitely team Prodigy but these days I'm more Pumpkins


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,515 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    49: Big Roses fan but this is probably my least favourite of theirs and I love the collaboration on Setting Sun - a Gallagher on a dance track, you just can't get more 90s.

    50. California Love - great sample

    51. I didn't think I knew either of these until I played them. Two nice enough songs that wouldn't have me reaching for the radio dial if they came on in the car. Voting for Summertime. The singer has a lovely voice and is very pretty - I think I could listen to and look at her all day. Fell in love a bit there :o

    52. Tough one. I still catch myself singing Today at times but whereas I think the Pumpkins may have a couple of better songs, No Good is peak Prodigy IMO and gets my vote for that reason.
