(‘What’s The Frequency Kenneth’), Oasis with their first Top 20 hit ‘Shakermaker’, and ‘Love Spreads’ the long-awaited single from The Stone Roses. Suede are up next with ‘Stay Together’ ahead of ’94 anthems from Elastica and Primal Scream… Pop-Reggae had a huge year and is celebrated next with massive hits soundtracking the year from Dawn Penn, Brian & Tony Gold & Red Dragon, Chaka Demus & Pliers, C.J.

Tony Di Bart topped the chart with ‘The Real Thing’ and Reel 2 Real created an undeniable earworm with ‘I Like To Move It’. DJ Miko hit with a dance version of ‘What’s Up’ and Doop with ‘Doop’ became another of ‘94’s rollcall of #1s. SNAP! returned with ‘Welcome To Tomorrow (Are You Ready)’ and Clubhouse feat. Carl’s ‘Light My Fire’ lit up the dancefloor. Huge tracks from JX, The Prodigy and The Grid follow ahead of more floor-fillers from Cappella and Maxx before the disc closes with ‘Renaissance’ from M People from their award-winning ‘Elegant Slumming’ album, Haddaway, and PJ & Duncan with the first of two chart visits for ‘Let’s Get Ready To Rhumble’ a ’94 #9, that would become a #1 19 years later on re-release in 2013.
The final disc opens with two timeless ballads from Elton John with ‘Can You Feel The Love Tonight’ and Wet Wet Wet with ‘Love Is All Around’ which spent 15 weeks at #1! More beautiful ballads from Richard Marx and Roxette are next before the debut solo hit ‘I Believe’ for Marcella Detroit and another #1 ‘Sure’ for Take That. Pop-R&B from newer hitmakers Michelle Gayle, Eternal and The Brand New Heavies leads to a pair of the greatest vocalists of all time, Donna Summer and Aretha Franklin with new hits for ’94 ‘Melody Of Love (Wanna Be Loved)’ and ‘A Deeper Love’. Salt-N-Pepa duetting with En Vogue and Warren G with Nate Dogg both hit with rap/pop crossover tracks and Seal returned to the chart with ‘Prayer For The Dying’ the first single from his second self-titled album.
