    He clearly ISN'T irrelevant if he is still having Moopy Tuesday threads named after him...

    Possibly the LEAST FAMOUS #1 hit maker of the 90s. Why Did Ya is actually REALLY GOOD.

    It's a close call with Lindy Layton and the Wamdue Project.

    Cassandra Fox from Rui da Silva can't go anywhere of course.

    Edit: I'm getting all my facts wrong, I thought Touch Me came out the first week of 2000, not 2001 as it was.

    Toni is still referred to by my loon sister and her friends when anything is described as WEAK she will STILL Say "That's a bit Toni DB"

    No one else gets it.

    I'm not sure I knew the famous single was a remix

    and I'm really not sure I knew it went to #1 it always felt like another one of those "stays in Top 3 for weeks without ever getting to number 1" type of dance hits

    I really did pay no attention to the charts back then.

    I can't find the original anywhere on youtube. If you've heard the original of Push the Feeling On, it sounds like that. Bad pop-jazz.

    I suppose the production is classic 90s dance, but I must admit I'm surprised funky is so enthusiastic about a song with such a WEEDY lead vocal.

    It's not weedy, it's FRAGILE.

    It reminds me of the kind of vocal you get on the album tracks from boyband members who never usually sing (for good reason)

    first of all it's not a weedy lead vocal. It's an understated soul vocal. Well it's hardly Jocelyn Brown, but it's very much the pop-jazz (as Eileen puts it) sound of the time - I refer you to Curiosity Killed The Cat, Jamiroquai and Kenny Thomas. It was mostly a female led scene though - Lisa Stansfield, Alison Limerick, Adeva, etc. I've always loved a bit of blue-eyed soul - for my SINS

    so I don't mind the original - but there's something very atmospheric and haunting about the remix which suits the vocal better. The original IS weedy, I admit...
