1089.1 | | AYOV16::RENNISON | About as funny as running out of toilet paper | Wed Dec 02 1992 09:57 | 10 |
| "Friday - I'm in Love" - The only good Cure song ever (IMHO) and a very good one
at that!! Single of the year contender ? It's not *that* good.
My vote goes to :
Connected - Stereo MCs

1089.2 | two votes | AYOV16::SROBERTSON | | Wed Dec 02 1992 12:17 | 10 |
| Just my own personal opinion but I thought Friday is one of the worst
songs I've ever heard - pure poppy crap - anyway
I'll go for - Blue Room - Orb
and
Step It Up - Stereo MC's
can't ignore the MC's

1089.3 | My vote... | AYOV10::MDONNELLY | Hey 19, that's 'Retha Franklyn | Wed Dec 02 1992 13:13 | 10 |

Deeply Dippy - Right Said Fred.
Magic.

1089.4 | go on - condemn me | SUBURB::ABSOLOMT | Desert Orchid is the king | Wed Dec 02 1992 13:45 | 8 |

Well, when this came out I thought it was the bollox:
Kriss Kross - Jump.

1089.5 | chapterhouse | TROOA::LANDREWS | In a Galaxy far, far away... | Wed Dec 02 1992 13:49 | 11 |
|
well, i think Friday I'm in Love deserves all the votes it gets, i love
that song.
however, there was one better in 1992 (in my opinion), and that's
Mesmerise by Chapterhouse. at least, i _think_ it came out in
1992...someone tell me if i'm wrong!

1089.6 | | ARRODS::OHAGANB | Kipperhead Rides Again | Wed Dec 02 1992 14:23 | 8 |
| IMHO (part 97)...a good slice of honest to good Pop sure beats an
epileptic trip round the dance floor or some skinny white noise
merchants straight out of the Velvets Academy. In case I forget,
Prefab Sprouts "The Sound of Crying" is nipping the heels of The
Cure for a close second.
barry.

1089.8 | nearly right | AYOV16::SROBERTSON | | Wed Dec 02 1992 15:20 | 8 |
| re-.5
Mesmerised came out in december '91 - got it for xmas.
I'll never forget the sound of the "special" bass sound when they
played at Q.M.U. - the whole place was vibrating - ooh er!
stuart.

1089.9 | Definately, positively, absolutley | WELCLU::BROWNI | The Man who sold the World | Wed Dec 02 1992 17:13 | 6 |
| A couple of contenders surely must be......
GENESIS - I can't dance
SHAKESPEARS SISTER - Stay

1089.10 | | RUTILE::WARBURTON | | Wed Dec 02 1992 17:20 | 5 |

Personally I prefer the lastest single by Shakespeare's Sister.

Tough choices,
I rank 10,000 Maniac's "These are Days" and "Candy Everybody
Wants", up at the top, and possibly Our Time In Eden as album of
the year. IMHO :^)

| Two singles this year did it for me - "If I could change your mind"
from the mighty Sugar, and "Middle of the Road", from Denim.

| Surely the previous two qualify for the title....
NME hype of the year ;-)

1089.19 | | SUBURB::WAITEG | SEARCH & DESTROY | Thu Dec 24 1992 10:18 | 4 |
| Flowered Up wasn't hyped and Suede was ass-licked by Melody Maker.
Gary

1089.20 | | AYOV16::RENNISON | Bee bah bow B-B-B-Bah Bowww !!! | Thu Dec 24 1992 10:31 | 5 |
| NME carried the headline "The greatest band in the world ?" after Flowered Up
released It's On. OK, so that was 1991 but it's still hype surely.

1089.21 | | SUBURB::WAITEG | SEARCH & DESTROY | Thu Dec 24 1992 10:33 | 4 |
| Nah.... Weekender wasn't hyped (Much). Suede was hyped more by Melody
Maker.

1089.22 | NME SOTW 1992 | JURA::PELAZ::MACFADYEN | brighter later | Mon Mar 29 1993 09:32 | 13 |
| The NME recently had an offer of a tape or cd of selected 1992 Singles of
the Week for a very reasonable six quid so I coughed up and bought it. This
record includes singles such as Sugar 'Changes', Carter USM 'Only Living Boy',
The Orb 'Assassin', PJ Harvey 'Sheela na gig', The Fall 'Free Range', and
many others. It's a very enjoyable disc and a good one to practice use of
the cd's "random" button on.
Fave tracks for me are Faith no More's 'Everything's Ruined', the CUSM one,
Wedding Present's 'California', a Sonic Youth one and, well, several others.
Great value and a rare chance to sample the work of many interesting groups.
