Happy 25th to #BackstreetBoys #IWantItThatWay , released #onthisdayinpop in 1999. Right group, right song, right time - all the stars aligned for this to become the best boyband song since Take That's Pray. The #Millenium began right here...
25 yrs ago today, #onthisdayinpop in 1999, #VondaShepard released the gorgeous ballad #BabyDontYouBreakMyHeartSlow - a duet with #IndigoGirls own #EmilySaliers . Both from her By 7.30 opus as well as a later Ally McBeal compilation, this was just exquisite.

25 years ago, #onthisdayinpop in 1999, #RickyMartin stormed onto the pop charts round the globe when he released the aces #LivinLaVidaLoca . Killer hook, danceable grooves & sounded like nothing else out there at the time. Such a thrilling blend of genres!

From #SmashHits magazine 30 years ago #onthisdayinpop in 1994, my favourite #TakeThat guy (Robbie) was getting his own spread to celebrate the group's 4th no.1 single with #EverythingChanges . Pretty sure I've seen that type of tee in River Island recently!

30 years ago, #onthisdayinpop in 1994, #CrystalWaters returned with an absolute bop of a song - 100% Pure Love. Just adored this percussive pop-house pop twirler - just such an infectious groove that you couldn't help but sing along to all the live long day! Top 3 smash in UK!
Ad from #SmashHits for the gorgeous #Always single by Erasure (Official) which was released 30 years ago this week! One of my all time top 5 Erasure songs.

30 yrs ago today, #onthisdayinpop in 1994, the #LetLoose lads were explaining (in the pages of #SmashHits mag who, quite frankly & rightly, adored them) why they hadn't been as HUGE as they should be (and were) about to be! Have you followed their return to planet pop this yr?
Some great music released 30 yrs ago today ( #onthisdayinpop in 1994), including one of my fave ever #CelineDion songs, #Misled ! I just fell hard for this ferociously funky bop! Initially peaked at 40 (😒) in the UK, but climbed to 15 in Nov of 1995!!

Happy 30th to one of my top 5 fave #Erasure singles - #Always was released #onthisdayinpop in 1994. Gorgeous song full of romantic hope. Rarely does an ode to yearning amour give us such a lush call to heavenly action. Brilliant retun posts Pop-the hits!

Happy 30th to my fave #Roxette album #CrashBoomBang - released in the UK #onthisdayinpop in 1994. Loved the title track, a phenomenal classic Rox Box ballad, while #Fireworks is pop gold & #Vulnerable just magic. What was your favourite?

Happy 40th to one of the greatest hi-NRG songs ever! Hazell Dean 💗🏳️⚧️'s #Searchin ' was rereleased in the UK #onthisdayinpop in 1984 (& rightly became a huge top ten smash and enduring gay anthem). I recall hearing it on the top 40 countdown & thinking it was GOLD

33 yrs ago, #onthisdayinpop in 1991, #WhitneyHouston released #Miracle as the 3rd US single from her #ImYourBabyTonight album. Lovely ballad that gave her a 13th consecutive top ten smash there; in the UK, Arista all but forgot about her for 6 months!!

33 yrs ago ( #onthisdayinpop in 1991), #Erasure teamed up with #LeneLovich on a rerecording of her track #Rage for the #PETA #TameYourself compilation.
Righteous indignation has never sounded so melodic & the theatricality of both vocal performers was aces

After a few false starts, #BeverleyCraven proved she could muster up chart gold when she re-released #PromiseMe #onthisdayinpop in 1991. Instantly timeless, this contains one of my favourite piano accompaniments ever - just a masterclass in classic pop

33 yrs since London Boys released one of my fave songs by them - #SweetSoulMusic was out #onthisdayinpop in 1991. Was a throwback to the glorious #Motown singles of the 60s/70s, wrapped up in all the #LondonBoys pop bombast I loved so much. Glorious!

Happy 33rd to #Bananarama 's #LongTrainRunning - released #onthisdayinpop in 1991. Inviting the #GipsyKings along for the journey meant this went for standard rock fare to a flamenco-inspired, techno-pop reinvention of the classic song. Loved this one!

25 years ago, #onthisdayinpop in 1999, S Club made their debut on CBBC (as well as in the pages of #SmashHits magazine) thanks to their SClub7 in Miami TV show. I probably wasn't the target age but I loved it- an escape from the realities of every day life
