This is officially the "catchiest UK hit single in history".
Apparently.
The top 10 catchiest songs
- 1. Spice Girls - Wannabe
- 2. Lou Bega - Mambo No 5
- 3. Survivor - Eye Of The Tiger
- 4. Lady Gaga - Just Dance
- 5. ABBA - SOS
- 6. Roy Orbison - Pretty Woman
- 7. Michael Jackson - Beat It
- 8. Whitney Houston - I Will Always Love You
- 9. The Human League - Don't You Want Me
- 10. Aerosmith - I Don't Want To Miss A Thing
Thanks, BBC.
Now I can't stop this bloody record going through my head!
I'll need to resort to my usual remedy...
Well, thank you for breaking my perfect run of never having heard a Spice Girls song.

ReplyDeleteI anticipate you'll be wearing that Union Jack dress all day now! Jx
DeleteGod, I HATED that song and those bloody girls! Weird list as well...
ReplyDeleteBelieve me, I was never a fan either. Can you not picture my tongue firmly in my cheek, my dear? Jx
DeletePS From Paris To Berlin is a far better earworm, believe me.
Of course I can ;) And yes, From Paris To Berlin is just one of the songs that would have fitted a lot better on that this list, than say, Aerosmith!
ReplyDeleteI suppose it is just a "recognisability test" rather than "likeability" - otherwise Wibblin' Whitney's "fork-down-a-blackboard" moment wouldn't be on the list...

Who writes these lists anyway, They are always a bit dodgy.
