44 NE 1 WHEN THE RAIN BEGINS TO FALL - Pappa Bear feat. Van Der Toorn (Booya/Universal)

And people wonder why ringtone rap doesn't bother me...

40 34 6 OPEN YOUR EYES - Guano Apes (Supersonic/Ariola)

. Throw in Liquido, Anouk and, while we're at it, Tokio Hotel too and I'll go

27 23 13 WHEN SUSANNA CRIES - Espen Lind (Universal)

LOL, I still like this one and "Lucky For You". I was shocked to learn he co-wrote Ne-Yo's "Go On Girl", along with Stargate.

3 3 22 IT'S LIKE THAT - Run DMC vs. Jason Nevins (Sm:)le/Profile)

I didn't care much for this remix, but IIRC "Sucker MC's" was also re-released with a new video. Now that's a classic!

5 4 18 TOGETHER AGAIN - Janet Jackson (Virgin)

She really fell from grace... :(

[Chato]

Even the better songs on that list were just 'decent'. I must admit I have a soft spot in my heart for All Saints, though.
LMAO @ Modern Talking.

A big at your whole reply!
By the way, now that we're talking about Pappa Bear, remember how there was this big wave of Euro-rap semi-remakes at the time? G's Incorporated's "Stairway To Heaven", Pappa Bear's own take on Kool & The Gang's "Cherish", Rappers Against Racism's stroll through Foreigner's "I Want To Know What Love Is", C-Block's redoing of Mr. Mister's "Broken Wings" and so forth?
And yes, Espen Lind has become this hired gun songwriter of sorts. And is, I think, one of the biggest collaborators with Stargate.

I do, actually, but I wish I didn't, honestly. I think there was also a rap remake of Elvis Presley's "In The Ghetto". And I remember a friend of mine asking me to give her a Rappers Against Racism single for Christmas. I don't know how I could bring myself to buy that ish, UGH!

I think the only Euro-Urban song I liked around that time was Lutricia McNeal's "Ain't That Just The Way". The rest was a really tacky and out of touch imitation of US R&B, which by that time was already in Timbaland mode, thus LIGHT YEARS ahead.

[Disco🌶️📖]

Ooh I love old charts!! There are soooo many great songs on this chart.

My thoughts on some:

92 NE 1 FOUND A CURE - Ultra Nate (Strictly Rhythm/AM:PM)

Excellent followup to the previous smash "Free." The Full Intention mix was total disco magic.

79 71 35 MEET HER AT THE LOVE PARADE - Da Hool (Kosmo/Ariola)

This one is still regularly re-made every couple of years. There are like 50 different official mixes of this one.

67 54 20 CASANOVA - Ultimate Kaos (Mercury)

That was one of my many guilty pleasures of '98. Loved this one.

56 61 8 FEEL IT - The Tamperer feat. Maya (Pepper/Time/Jive)

Absolutely wicked mashing of The Jacksons' "Can You Feel It" and Urban Discharge's "Drop A House (On That B!tch)". New mixes are coming this year.

19 65 3 YOU'RE MY HEART, YOU'RE MY SOUL 1998 -
Modern Talking (Hansa/Ariola)

I used to be such a Modern Talking fan. One of my favorites. Loved the new version. Didn't like the rap version that much.

4 5 3 LA PRIMAVERA - Sash! (Byte Blue)

Absolutely gorgeous piano-based trance/Euro Hi NRG track. One of their better offerings.
