I had never heard the 2 Unlimited song before. Catchy.


Purely nostalgic. When I was young I thought this was the best thing ever. I still like it. It screams 90s to me.

The Darkness are always fun. I believe they have a new album coming out this year.


Unfortunately, I have lost track of them and others (such as QOTSA). They release new albums and I just don't know about it. My finger is not as on the pulse in music as in film.

A Rush of Blood to the Head is such a perfect album. I could honestly put any song from it into my list, and at any stage, and I'd be happy with its placement. It is/was also a marked improvement over their debut album.

The "Sinnermax" remix is a great choice.

List so far:
52. King - UB40
51. Sinnerman (Felix da Housecat's Heavenly House Mix) - Nina Simone
50. Dead Souls - Nine Inch Nails
49. Forbidden Love - Madonna
48. Clocks - Coldplay
47. Action Radar - The Prodigy
46. Porcelain - Moby

"Porcelain" was my introduction to Moby, on the soundtrack for Danny Boyle's The Beach. Which was quite the influential disc for me. It also had cuts by Blur, Faithless, New Order, UNKLE (feat. Richard Ashcroft), Underworld, Asian Dub Foundation...

"Wide Awake" is such an epic, fist-in-the-air-worthy anthem. Absolutely passionate vocal performance by Chris Cornell.

Love these lists! Look forward to wading through this when all is said and done.

BTW Algren - completely forgot about Saturday Night. I loved it and a few other Whigfield songs when i first went to clubs when i was 18. I recall being super excited to meet Whigfield at a public appearance she did promoting her CD. Wasn't happy she spelled my name wrong signing the CD cover. I still have it somewhere. :lol:

Awesome that Whigfield was still being played when you were 18 (I think we're similar in age). It didn't last out the 90s in the UK. Great tune though. Love its corniness and love its happy vibe.
