historicrocker Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 Far too many to mention! Push The Button by The Sugababes still remains my post-2000 favourite though, with I Believe by Kylie a close second.I am still recovering from my intial gasp at the former's video, I Believe is brilliant though even if I think her best material is on "Kylie".Good call on that band by the way. Like an earthier version of Architecture in Helsinki. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Push The Button by The Sugababes still remains my post-2000 favourite though, with I Believe by Kylie a close second.Don't taint Kylie with that watered down piece of drivel.BIG DIFFERENCE."I Believe"byand many others equally as dullor"I Believe In You"byAH-MAZE-INGAnyways... Girls Aloud's Biology is still the best pop song ever written. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swingin' Ryan Posted October 20, 2007 Report Share Posted October 20, 2007 It was more shorthand than an actual suggestion that Kylie sang the old standard! Although seeing as you mention it, Elvis actually did a lovely version, it's just Robson and Jerome that ruined it.As for Kylie's I Believe In You, it's one of the few times in recent years I've actually gone and bought a single but I don't know why I stopped buying singles. I used to love going to Woolworths of a weekend as a child and buying a single on cassette and some sweets. I better stop before this sounds like one of those 'Kids of the 90's' nostalgia chain e-mails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
