Children, 99% of this is the stuff we had to PUT UP WITH to listen to some amazing music in the 90s. Don't be fooled, this is but the chaff. I bet the "Every Number 2" list would be MUCH better.
Exactly what I was thinking listening to these , after Saturday morning kids TV there was chart shows playing great song after another and of course TOTP every Friday and the British indie bands and so many cool black artists from America with positive vibe songs saturated the charts Most of these no.1s post 96 were absolute cancer man
@@user-nu1vn3yy9s Their music was great pop music. Easy lyrics, catchy hooks. They did a lot to balance out the decade of the boy bands, so like them or not, the Spice Girls is a group that has definitely endured despite being together such a short time.
Yes there was some crap songs made Number 1 in the UK in the 1990's , but most annoying was karaoke group Pondlife , sorry Westlife and bloody Robson and Jerome
1999 is my favourite year. It was the first year that I played a lot of attention to the charts as a teen turning in every week. Hated Westlife though.
@@WhisperUK Straight after the race with Blur that Roll With It lost, Wonderwall was infamously kept off the top in late 1995 by one of Robson & Jerome's karaoke singalongs of all things! The same year had Common People by Pulp and Alright by Supergrass getting to number 2 in the summer.
The biggest take away from this whole list is Ricky Martin is one good looking man. 1:32 Elton John song I think is not the correct version played unless there was another version with Goodbye English Rose.
This is all coming back to me , 98 was truly when the classic 90's sound began to die as every other group was manfactured boy/girl groups which tied in nicely for the upcoming shit storm of talent shows that arrived in the new millennium
90% of these were teen bands or singers. Obviously record companies were going for the younger demographics and a lot were manufactured bands were they didn't know each other prior (as opposed to old bands which were friends who started off as a garage band).
Is it just me or does that backstreet boys I want it that way sound different on 7:13 Cause I can hear a little twinkling tune in the background and is much louder... and faster! I really like it! I’ve tried to look for it and I can’t find it. You probably won’t notice it but if you look at the proper one it’s not like this one...
It would be a difficult feat to be able to cram more crap music into 10 minutes. This truly was the age when shite first became really commercial. There was some exceptional music around at the time, most of it just didn't get to number one in the UK.
My God I didn't think the 90s were that bad, but most of the number ones are awful. Particularly the late 90s with awful boy bands and girl bands many of them just doing covers.
Is it me but does any body else feel that, whilst a lot of good music is here in the nineties, compared to the previous decades, the music is perceptibly begin to drop off, and decline in quality , becoming more and more unmemorable?
Actually the late 80s through to 92 was shite , many great indie guitar bands back in full swing mid 90's ditching the synth keyboards and black artists were pumping out cool vibe positive tracks one after another Late 90's suddenly got Aids
1999 was the year pop music started going down the drain in my opinion. I can think of about 10 songs I really like since that time. Crazy In Love by Beyonce is one. Everybody Changes by Keane is another.
Ugh there is this song that I CANNOT REMEMBER THE NAME OFF!! And its doing my head in. It was a 90s song and i remember the single cover it was a mans face and it was coverd in blue paint! Might have even been the Scottish flag. It wasnt a major artist or that just more of a one hit wonder in the uk. Any help or ideas would be appreciated 😭
@@veryoddtaste4002 awww thanks for a reply. I had a look at the video. Unfortunately it's not that. :( its a scottish song something like "brother" or something. Im never guna get it hahaha!
It is hard to disagree after seeing this but it was a decade with a lot of really good music. It just seems to never have made it to any chart position of note... :)
The Noughties are actually worse if you can believe it, but things will improve in the Teens.😀 Although, the #1s from the 00s are much better than the #1s from the 90s. Unfortunately in the 00s the number 1s are the ONLY good songs.
The 2000s and 2010s were the opposite to be honest. The first few years of the 2000s were filled with awful manufactured bands, and the early 2010s was autotune hell. Most of the decent stuff from those decades is from the latter halves
These videos have so many salty boomers on the comments 😂😂😂 as if the charts in the 70s were any better. Combine Harvester, Long Haired Lover From Liverpool, Fastest Milkman in the west,.....FUCKING AMAZING GRACE PLAYED ON THE BABPIPES BEING THE NUMBER ONE SONG OF 1972
So, a song from the 70s, was the last number 1 hit in the UK, and it wasn't even written by a UK artist? WTF? (or did Sweden join the UK that year?) :) Oh yeah, and why did the 60s - 80s take 3 videos, while the 90s only took 2? Don't tell me the music was better, because a good portion of the songs all sound similar, unlike earlier decades.
Who says that it has to be written by an English artist? There are American and international acts in the UK charts as well who were in the video. Gwen Stefano, Michael Jackson, Madonna et al are not English.
