Electribe 101 – You’re Walking
A brief introduction to Electribe 101. Or, if you will, Electribe 101 101 *has mild hysterics*
Kim Wilde – A Miracle’s Coming
In which necessity is the mother of re-invention.
Jody Watley – I’m the One You Need
Category is: dancefloor eleganza. Yes, it's the Morales-booster that is "I'm the One You Need".
Eg and Alice – Indian
1991: the year that wanted to sex you up. Possibly one of the reasons why Eg and Alice never troubled the charts.
Milla Jovovich – Gentleman Who Fell
Film star in Moomin-pop-courtly-love-quite-good-album shocker!
Blue Pearl – Running Up That Hill
Yes, it is that Running Up That Hill.
Thunderbugs – It’s About Time You Were Mine
Saluting the fallen girl bands of our time: it's the here today, gone today story of the Thunderbugs.
Claudia Brücken – Absolut[e]
Where do Brücken hearts go? The bargain bin, sadly.
Scarlet – Love Hangover
Not that Love Hangover. The other Love Hangover.
New Radicals – Mother We Just Can’t Get Enough
Pop: one of the few career choices where quitting early can actually do you a favour.
Tasmin Archer – One More Good Night With the Boys
Never be the Next Big Thing.
Pet Shop Boys with Kylie Minogue – In Denial
1999: Pet Shop Boys and Kylie Minogue finally get together, create stunningly beautiful song, world shrugs. That's the brutality of pop for you.
Gina G – Every Time I Fall
Every chirpy pop star must at some point become a Frowning Concept (thank you Neil Tennant for that phrase), and Gina G's turn came with this lovely dreamy ballad. Note also cut-price version of Kylie's "Put Yourself in My Place" video.
Debbie Gibson – Anything is Possible (Remix Edit)
In which bubbly pop princess Debbie Gibson attempts to grow up a bit and is roundly rejected because we are all TERRIBLE PEOPLE.
Kate Bush – Eat the Music
In which Kate Bush makes us all want to tuck into a bowl of Fruit 'n Fibre with our BARE HANDS.
Cathy Dennis – That is Why You Love Me
Quite how we've got this far without covering one of pop's most successful guiding lights is beyond me, but here she is, finally: the irresistible Cathy Dennis!
Deborah Harry – Sweet and Low
That peculiar time when Debbie Harry became Deborah for a bit, roped in PWL for a remix and very few people cared. Sigh.
Dubstar – Cathedral Park
From the file marked "Bands we never quite got round to buying even though they were dead good" - it's the amazing Dubstar.
Susanna Hoffs – Wishing on Telstar
Ah, the long-distance love song. Where would pop be without telephone operators who can't do their job properly?
Mono – Life in Mono
I had great expectations for this song, but not even Great Expectations could make it a hit. More Music for Spies, this time from the really very good Mono.
