I've never heard of these, and some of the other videos, like "What's Going On", I did not expect to make the countdown. Very interesting setup. It's different to what I am used to.

"Hey Baby", "Family Affair", "Standing Still", "Get The Party Started", "Hero", "Whenever, Wherever", "Only Time", "Wherever You Will Go", "What's Going On", "Fallin'", "Trouble" and "Ain't It Funny"
12/20 Great countdown.

AMAZING countdown!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Particularly thrilled to see "Standing Still," "Dig In," "Everyday," "God Gave Me Everything," "Family Affair," "Hey Baby," "Wherever You Will Go," "Fallin'," and "Everyday" getting some love.

Also surprised to see Travis on the countdown, since I didn't think they were that big in the U.S., though back then VH1 was still mostly AC, so it makes sense they'd promote this group...

From what I know, "Everyday" lasts a long time on the countdown, "Fallin'" gets #1 for 7 weeks in 2001, and "Hey Baby" gets #1 this year.

10/20 <333

13/20

"Side", "Stuck In A Moment...", "Trouble" :heart:

Side and Family Affair

Wow. I wonder which ones are debuts. If I can take a gander, I'd say probably "Ain't It Funny" and "Side" are debuts.

#20 Travis / Side

14/20. Pretty good countdown. Much better than the later years of the countdown.

so glad i grew up with that music <3 memories

12/20 A Woman's Worth debuting <333

Creed @ #1

Good debuts & #1

17/20 I only dislike Enya and her boring "somnifero", one of the most boring songs on Earth, Dave Matthews Band,s disgusting boring video and the gayest oldest man on Earth named Elton John who sings boring songs.

Great countdown. Glad "Wherever You Will Go" is climbing up the countdown.
