I would. I listened to it yesterday and thought it would have been a good entry this round.
The other Boo Radleys song I really like is "It's Lulu". They came across though later as someone who regretted having made catchy pop songs and tried too desperately hard to shake it off.

Good and quite right as I don't normally complain when bands sell out but 'Wake Up Boo' was totally lets right a Brit pop hit. their best album was the album before 'Wake Up'. 'Giant Steps' is a masterpiece as you know now you don't have to have hit singles to be good. |

I don't know much about the Boo Radleys, but Wake Up Boo got on my nerves very quickly when it was out. Good Enough by Dodgy did as well, but not on the same level.

I liked Wake Up Boo! and think it's a great pop song.
"Good Enough" was not my favourite song on the Free Peace Sweet album... actually of the singles "Found You" is my favourite an the album has great songs like Jack the Lad, UKRIP and some great slow songs like One Of Those Rivers and Long Life, all of which helped it remain my #1 album for 5 consecutive months, long than any other during the britpop era.

If my entry doesn't come 2nd in this round, then there's no justice in Britpop. It would be a travesty if it were to win, but I'm totally confident that won't happen.

This was one of those rounds where I knew where my 15 points were going as soon as I saw the list. The rest took some sorting out though.
