2021 - Can't Stop The Pop

Gina G – Ti Amo

‘Ti Amo’ marked that most cherished rite of passage for Gina G: an obligatory diversion into Latin-tinged pop music.

Although ‘Love Ain’t Gonna Wait For You’ was to be S Club’s final single, at least they were considerate enough to warn us beforehand.

The lead single from Atomic Kitten’s second album might have been called ‘It’s OK!’, but they needn’t have been so modest.

With the UK consistently performing well at Eurovision (yes, really), the stage was set for Precious to become our latest success…

BBMak had already conquered America by the time they released their second single. Now, they just needed to land another hit in the UK.

Whether Vanilla were a joke or not, ‘True To Us’ was an unexpected second single in that it’s actually almost quite…good?

Kelly Osbourne’s second album saw her drawn down the path of electropop. And true to form, it was a brilliant move.

Cleopatra turned their attention to socially conscious pop music with their second single ‘Life Ain’t Easy’.

‘Back When’ saw the allSTARS* gather a team of songwriters with a proven track record and release their best single to date.

Only Geri Halliwell would have the audacity to take on ‘It’s Raining Men’ and make it her own…regardless of what that entailed.

Triple Eight sought to fill the boyband void with their debut single ‘Knockout’. But were they punching above their weight?

There’s no doubting Lindsay Lohan exuded star quality, but ‘Over’ had to prove that a pop career was the right outlet for it.
