The Most Bizarre UK No. 1s of the 1990s

Britain in the 90s had some great number one singles. Songs that summed up a moment, stretched the boundaries of what pop could be, yet have stood the test of time. “Nothing Compares 2U”. “Don’t Look Back In Anger”. “Wannabe”. “Firestarter”. “...Baby One More Time”. From this list you would think the British record buying public had excellent, undeniable taste. But then there are other songs where you wonder “how did that become the most popular song in the country?” Whether that’s because it’s a confusing mish-mash of genres, defiantly uncommercial or offensively not very good, this is an exploration of those songs: The stories of the Most Bizarre UK No. 1s of the 1990s. #ukcharts #90spop #musicdocumentary Fact-checking by Chad Van Wagner. 00:00 Introduction 00:45 TV Presenter & The Phantom of The Opera 04:21 Heavy Metal at The Top 07:46 Gregorian House 11:01 Pink, Yellow, and Pear Shaped 15:26 The Charleston For The 90s 19:04 Probably about Courtney Love 23:30 Brightly Coloured Moonwalkers 26:49 Soul Legend in a Cartoon 30:46 Film Director's Pop Career 34:54 Britain's Elvis Bows Out Soundtrack Luar - Citrine (  / luarbeats  ) Luar - Anchor (  / luarbeats  ) You can also follow me here: Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/trashtheory....
