It's Up To You was the first song from The Tuesdays I ever heard--and it's also my favorite song from The Tuesdays. (I heard it way back in '97, from WYOY.)
I have a cassette copy of The Tuesdays' self-titled debut album...as well as the It's Up To You cassette single.

This was the only song from them I heard. It was pretty good.

Great song. Very good album. I wonder if they would have done better on the charts in 2001-2003 when guitar-driven pop was more "in".

Oh my goodness.... I was going to make a topic about this tonight. My brother just bought this album used for like $5.99. We both liked "It's Up to You" when it was out. They came to Pensacola for Springfest '98 for their first North American performance. I wouldn't be surprised if it was one of their last, LOL.

I swear I was gonna make a topic about this song too last night, but I got distracted and never got around to doing it. Maybe because the word "thursday" was in the name of one of the topics? I LOVE this song.  I think i made a topic about this song on R&R |

I wasn't gonna make a topic about this song last night. Oh well...
I love this song, though. Neat Beatle-esque harmonies on the chorus. :)

This was an ok song. I actually forgot all about it; don't think I've ever heard it since '98. I remember they reminded me a bit of the Bangels.

Cool song, bought the CD single. I remember this song spending many weeks at #2 on my chart.

This was one of those songs that Rick Dees played as an "Extra" on his (warped!) AC show for weeks after the song had fallen off the Pop chart as a filler for "taboo" songs for AC radio.

Well it's memorable for the "You can put your toothbrush next to mine" lyric. It lead me to wonder "Well if you like each other so much, why don't you just share?" :)
This sounded interesting the first few times I heard it, but I didn't think it was anything special.

They're better than Lillix, that's for sure.

Probably one of the top ten most forgettable songs of the past decade. I liked their song "I Was Thinking of You" better.

Probably one of the top ten most forgettable songs of the past decade. Probably, because I usually remember forgettable songs, and can't even remember this one, even after someone posted some lyrics.... And I think I got them mixed up with Aimee Mann's band, 'Til Tuesday  |

All I really remember is the chorus and that they had an 80's feel to it (with influences by handfuls of 80's bands). That's about it. This was probably the shortest-lived top-21 hit by a newcomer since the dawn of the PPW era.

I liked this one quite a bit... should have been a bigger hit IMHO... I think I need to give it a spin tomorrow... haven't heard it in forever...

This is decent. I think it's one of those songs that many people tend to forget ever existed though.
