So, you take the top 50 records from the year you were 18 from this website http://www.onmc.iinet.net.au/, post the list and then -
bold the ones you liked,
and italicize the ones you knew but didn’t particularly like or dislike.
The ones you don’t know will still be in normal text.
So, here are the top 50 songs from 1995.
1995 to me means britpop, A levels and moving to University in Sheffield. I think the list below shows thigns a little differently!
BACK FOR GOOD Take That Although I probably wouldn't admit it at the time, I was a little partial to take that, and remember buying the greatest hits from Virgin in Sheffield whilst hoping noone would see me!
MISSING Everything But The Girl This song reminds me of going to visit my friend Matt at Birmingham Uni for some reason!
WONDERWALL Oasis Not the best song ever, but it is one of the tunes of the year for me
COUNTRY HOUSE Blur Ahh the war between Blur & Oasis for number one, I bought this single (even though it is probably one of Blur's worst) to show where my loyalties lay - sucked in totally.
FATHER AND SON Boyzone I probably hated this at the time, but feel fairly neutral on it now
BOOMBASTIC Shaggy This makes me laugh....
SET YOU FREE N-Trance Again, I probably hated this at the time.
HOLD ME, THRILL ME, KISS ME, KILL ME U2 Never been a big U2 fan.
ROLL WITH IT Oasis Another A levels song for me.
GUAGLIONE Perez 'Praz' Prado & his Orchestra - I have no idea what this is but am tempted to look it up on itunes
I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU The Rembrandts - reminds me of Friday evenings sitting on horribly uncomfortable kitchen chairs in my uni flat watching my tiny portable TV for our weekly dose of friends.
HERE COMES THE HOTSTEPPER Ini Kamoze - I am going to have this in my head for the rest of the week now.
SHY GUY Diana King - Don't remember this either
IT'S OH SO QUIET Bjork - Always shocks me when it comes on my ipod when I'm on a train because you never hear the start!
NEVER FORGET Take That Probably my fave TT song!
DON'T GIVE ME YOUR LIFE Alex Party Again, I probably hated this at the time!
WATERFALLS TLC Another one to get stuck in your head
SOME MIGHT SAY Oasis Generic Oasis, but good all the same
YOU'LL SEE Madonna I hardly remember this Madonna song at all
THUNDER East 17 ditto madonna, I can't really remember it
COMMON PEOPLE Pulp - I love this song!

HEAVEN FOR EVERYONE Queen Don't remember it
FREE AS A BIRD The Beatles
LOVE CAN BUILD A BRIDGE Cher, Chrissie Hynde, Neneh Cherry and Eric Clapton [Comic Relief '95] It was for Charity!

THE SUNSHINE AFTER THE RAIN '95 Berri
THE BOMB! (THESE SOUNDS FALL INTO MY MIND) The Bucketheads Now this is in my head. AGGGGGGHHHHH

Oh dear my 18th year was TRAGIC! Really "TRUE - Spandau Ballet" was the best bet though I probably wasn't too keen back then (a rocker chick!). I remember listening to Blondie, Pink Floyd, Queen, Led Zep, Rush, Blue Oyster Cult etc etc., I can see why looking at this list!
