Only bitter haters would say this I can't name 10 better songs from 1999 than Waiting For Tonight the only ones in my library are ...BOMT, Heartbreaker and some Fiona Apple songs but If You Had My Love is a cute bop
prézli Posted December 11, 2019 Author Posted December 11, 2019 The new generation may know "All Star" from "Shrek," but I'm an old lady and remember those times when this song slayed the radios everywhere. I love its free-care, not-giving-a-f vibe in a soft comedic way. And yeah, it's not a cover unlike their other hits. I think everyone knows "I Want It That Way." If you don't, you lived under a rock for 20 years and I don't know what you do on ATRL... This is one of the most iconic songs in pop history, a timeless classic. However, it's not my most favorite track by BSB. "Smooth" is great, but "Maria Maria" is perfect. And DJ Khalid tried to re-create it, HA, what a joke. I'm not a huge favorite of latin pop, but being mixed together with R&B sounds heavenly. I'm quite sure you forgot about this five-piece boy group from the UK that were managed by the one and only Simon Cowell back then. They became semi-popular in the US with a previous single, but "Keep on Movin'" wins with quality. And here we go. "Larger than Life" got overshadowed by "I Want It That Way" back in 1999, but the fact is: this song is catchier. Name a better chorus than this. ("Everybody (Backstreet's Back)" is a close runner-up, though.) 20. Geri Halliwell - "Mi Chico Latino" 19. Jennifer Lopez - "Waiting for Tonight" 18. S Club 7 - "S Club Party" 17. Alice Deejay - "Back in My Life" 16. Ricky Martin - "Livin' La Vida Loca" 15. Santana - "Smooth" (feat. Rob Thomas) 14. Tin Tin Out - "What I Am" (feat. Emma Bunton) 13. Jennifer Lopez - "If You Had My Love" 12. S Club 7 - "Two in a Million" 11. Sixpence None the Richer - "There She Goes" 10. Smash Mouth - "All Star" 9. Backstreet Boys - "I Want It That Way" 8. Santana - "Maria Maria" (feat. The Product G&B) 7. 5ive - "Keep on Movin'" 6. Backstreet Boys - "Larger than Life"

K$Ellie Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 Sure All Star is a bop but it's forever tied to Shrek now the Maria Maria sample made Wild Thoughts good so I'd probs like the original too 1 minute ago, prézli said: BOMT is from 1998.

JGibson Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 All Star + Maria Maria + Larger Than Life + I Want It That Way
potent Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 I Want It That Way is great, although I agree it's not their best Larger Than Life
Remmy Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 Maria Maria I Want It That Way and Larger Than Life I had to do a quick search to see what year their best song (Shape of My Heart) came out but it was 2000. All Star Yeah, I remember when it wasn't known as the Shrek/meme song.
Lazuli Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 if u had my love, there she goes and i want it that way CLASSICS all star.............
Jet Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 Somehow Maria Maria is extremely nostalgic yet still super fresh, it hasn't aged a day
prézli Posted December 13, 2019 Author Posted December 13, 2019 It's snowing outside therefore my internet is not okay since yesterday. Hopefully, I can finish the 1999 list tomorrow.

ATRL Moderator madonnas Posted December 14, 2019 ATRL Moderator Posted December 14, 2019 All Star is the best song on this set!
prézli Posted December 14, 2019 Author Posted December 14, 2019 You can drag me, you can hate me, but this song is an ultimate bop! Before "Old Town Road," we had Willy's "Wild Wild West" which wasn't crossover at all, but its catchy chorus delivered by Sisqó burned into our ears. "...Baby One More Time" was good, but "(You Drive Me) Crazy" was the song that competely turned me into a Britney fangirl. I still could listen to it all day long. It screams 90's, however, it aged like wine for me. When pop rock was dying out in late 90's, Tal Bachman came in and slayed with "She's So High." I bet every teen romance film used this song at the end credits. It sounds so charming. When I was a kid, I didn't care about TLC at all, even though they had had some hits in Europe in the middle of 90's. But "No Scrubs" was a game changer: it is still popular and mentioned, people still talk about it. I feel like this song will never get old. @kelly-clarkson won. It was a tough race between "No Scrubs" and "Genie in a Bottle," but I put Xtina's breakout hit into the first place because it is one of the best debut singles of all time (yes, I know "Reflection" exists, but seriously...) and is the top of teen pop. 20. Geri Halliwell - "Mi Chico Latino" 19. Jennifer Lopez - "Waiting for Tonight" 18. S Club 7 - "S Club Party" 17. Alice Deejay - "Back in My Life" 16. Ricky Martin - "Livin' La Vida Loca" 15. Santana - "Smooth" (feat. Rob Thomas) 14. Tin Tin Out - "What I Am" (feat. Emma Bunton) 13. Jennifer Lopez - "If You Had My Love" 12. S Club 7 - "Two in a Million" 11. Sixpence None the Richer - "There She Goes" 10. Smash Mouth - "All Star" 9. Backstreet Boys - "I Want It That Way" 8. Santana - "Maria Maria" (feat. The Product G&B) 7. 5ive - "Keep on Movin'" 6. Backstreet Boys - "Larger than Life" 5. Will Smith - "Wild Wild West" (feat. Dru Hill & Kool Moe Dee) 4. Britney Spears - "(You Drive Me) Crazy (The Stop Remix!)" 3. Tal Bachman - "She's So High" 2. TLC - "No Scrubs" 1. Christina Aguilera - "Genie in a Bottle"
