jonattonyeah there are a lot of contenders from UK Garage in that era - one could probably make a reasonable claim for 99% of the entire genre.
Artful Dodger ft Daniel Bedingfield ‘Gotta Get Thru This’ and Sweet Female Attitude ‘Flowers’ are two other ghastly examples.

They are, but really they’re just pop music. Difficult to get offended by something you would hear down your local Ritzy. You should be offended by yourself even going in there.
bosstrabs I never went to my “local Ritzy”. Quite a few kids did blare out this trash at my secondary school though.
bosstrabs That is a fucking awful record. Music sounds better with you, or whatever it’s called and those French cunts, Daft Punk - Get Lucky.
Along_the_Wire Music sounds better with you
TUNE
Volts in Kingston was my local Ritzy.
Absolutely smashed it in there, natch.
Smallman1 Hugo was too busy in his teenage years…
Smallman1 lol. Absolutely horrific place. A parade of YSL, Polo Sport shirts and shiny slip-on loafers with tassles and/or buckles. And that was just me. Big place though iirc
bosstrabs no, I was sneaking in to The End on a fake ID.
Neither was I.

Oi oi!
bosstrabs still courting Vanessa Feltz. Imagine

FUN FUN FUN FUN
jonattonyeah See earlier: not offended by crap pop music. Way more offended by Killahurtz - West on 27th because I actually had to endure it in clubs. Surrounded by gorps who actually thought it was good and could be listened to three times in one night.

The first half is fantastic. After the break is naff.
When Volts turned into The Works that was the moment I thought I should spread my wings in Kingston and go to Options.
I really have lived the dream.
Stardust is an amazing tune. Overplayed yes but that doesn’t make it any worse. First few times I heard it, it blew my mind. Was desperate to get it. That and Needin you soundtracked Ibiza in 98.

Be careful Alistair, the Fun Police/Daft Punk Detesters on JC will string you up in a minute.
alistair What a year that was! Had my first honeymoon in Ibiza that year. Great times.
bosstrabs Saw live last year at a socially distanced ‘festival’.
Still pony
