[Johnny 1989]

My one for this year:

Acoustic Version


Original Version


Red Hot Chili Peppers - Under The Bridge - March 1992 - Number 26

[Sidders]

Darn it, the Chilis didn't even occur to me. That one has to win.

[bmstinton93]

Under the Bridge was my first choice then I noticed Johnny had gone for it so I decided to go for this classic instead

[bmstinton93]

My one for this year:



Red Hot Chili Peppers - Under The Bridge - March 1992 - Number 26

Is it just me or is this an acoustic version?

[MK Chris]

One of my favourite songs, I absolutely love this - Lightning Seeds - The Life of Riley

[Johnny 1989]

My one for this year:



Red Hot Chili Peppers - Under The Bridge - March 1992 - Number 26

Is it just me or is this an acoustic version?

I think you're right, to be honest it was the first vid I found that let me "embed" on here, the others wouldn't. I have added the original version up there with the acoustic one now

[Zoot]

I'd be doing myself no justice whatsoever if I didn't choose this -

Guns n' Roses - November Rain

[Johnny 1989]

Interesting little factoid*, 1992 has one of the least amount of number 1's of recent times, if not since the charts started in the UK, from everyhit.com:

Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody (re-issue) / These Are The Days Of Our Lives - Dec 1991 (This song was still number 1 the first few weeks of 1992)
Wet Wet Wet- Goodnight Girl - Jan 1992
Shakespears Sister- Stay - Jan 1992
Right Said Fred - Deeply Dippy - Mar 1992
KWS - Please Don't Go / Game Boy - Apr 1992
Erasure - Abba-Esque EP - Jun 1992
Snap - Rhythm Is A Dancer - Jul 1992
Jimmy Nail - Ain't No Doubt - Jul 1992
Shame - Ebeneezer Goode - Sep 1992
Boyz II Men - End Of The Road - Sep 1992
Tasmin Archer - Sleeping Satellite - Sep 1992
Charles & Eddie - Would I Lie To You - Oct 1992
Whitney Houston - I Will Always Love You - Nov 1992

And that's it for 1992 13 number 1's (if you include the continuation of Bohemian Rhapsody from 1991), in comparison there was 30 number 1's in 2002

*Probably not that interesting at all

I may not vote for my own song for the first time ever.

[Sidders]

I may not vote for my own song for the first time ever.

In all honesty, I've never even heard your song before today.

[Zoot]

I only know that song because it features in an episode of Friends.

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

Its nice to be able to educate you people.

[Sidders]

Its nice to be able to educate you people.

About shite music?

[MK Chris]

I'd be doing myself no justice whatsoever if I didn't choose this -

Guns n' Roses - November Rain

I knew you'd go for that and before I spotted Lightning Seeds, I nearly went for it just to piss you off!

I may not vote for my own song for the first time ever.

Ohh, who will you be voting for? Say it's me...

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

Topher - the fact the singer is a horrible Kopite means no. Also the whole Life of Riley album is better as an instrumental.

Its a good find i've never heard that version and it sounds really good.

[DevilsDuck]

I cant stand Lightning Seeds - The Life of Riley, I actually hate it

[CassieJackson]

Pearl Jam - Alive

[Yudster]

I may not vote for my own song for the first time ever.

In all honesty, I've never even heard your song before today.

If I didn't already know the answer is yes, I'd ask you at this point if you've been living under a rock all your life.

My choice is the acceptable face of 1990s R&B - En Vogue, Free Your Mind. Brilliant. I just watched this back, I had forgotten how brilliant En Vogue were.

[Sidders]

If I didn't already know the answer is yes, I'd ask you at this point if you've been living under a rock all your life.

So explain to me why I should have heard that song before?

[bmstinton93]

Cause its a classic! "I like big buts and I cannot lie" how can you not have heard that!

I agree, it's a classic, bloke raps about liking girls with curvy butts, win-win in my opinion
