11 Sonia- Only Fools (Never Fall In Love)
Not her last appearance, we will have more Sonia in the top 10. This is of course another thing we never asked for or wanted and it is 100x worse than any real Motown. But the only reason this isn't in the top 10 is that Motown feel but otherwise it is horrible. Have to include this quote from Smash Hits. "Sonia would be The Supremes if she could find two other people like her". I read that as "Sonia would be The Supremes if she could find two other people that liked her". Anyway, I am sure that was total sarcasm. This reached '10 in the UK.

12 Whitney Houston, Florida Orchestra - The Star Spangled Banner (feat. The Florida Orchestra) - Live from Super Bowl XXV
I am sorry total cringe why is this a single!!!! This reached #20 in the US, the first time the anthem returned to the charts since 1958. Just stop!

13 PJB Featuring Hannah and Her Sisters - Bridge Over Troubled Water
I was never a big fan of this song in the first place and this version is fine when it starts but sadly that doesn't last long. Nooooo!! It is all the default standard house samples kick in. Hannah you should have just done this on your own, this is a complete terriblemess now. This version reached #21 in the UK.

14 Vanilla Ice - I Love You
I had to stop posting these yesterday morning as the site kept crashing but I really suspect that Proboards was trying to protect you all from this top 15, although I know there is at least one song to come that is loved here. This though is not one of them, it is the hip hop ballad time and it is just as cringey and bad as you would expect, utterly devoid of any talent or quality. His time is nearly up for now as this reaches #45 in the UK and #52 in the US.

15 Timmy T - One More Try
Yeh there was something going on in the US charts in 1991. Freestyle was a genre that never took off in the UK and we can be thankful for that, this dirge is one of the best and worst examples of it. Somehow this dreadful song which sounds like it was made with a Casiotone reached number one in the US.

16 Stevie B - I'll Be By Your Side
Still a thing sadly, this is just another drippy dirge from his 1990 album. This is another song that makes New Kids look like geniuses in comparison. This reached #12 in the US, did nothing here thank God. Playback disabled for your safety I suspect.

17 East Side Beat - Ride Like The Wind
File this under lazy karaoke cover of a classic rock song done to fit whatever is popular in the clubs. Super lazy and completely unnecessary. Similar culprits we will see on the next list, Hello Undercover!! This reached #3 in the UK.

18 Color Me Badd - I Adore Mi Amor
Are they the worst new band of 1991, yes I think so. This is a super dull New Kids knock off, so that says how low we are getting. They are so cringey, their videos are dreadful. This band are really the worst. This was a US number one but thankfully we had more sense here and it only reached #44.

19 Andrew Lloyd Webber, Jason Donovan, "Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" 1991 London Cast - Joseph Mega Remix
Just when you think it can't get any worse they now combine Joseph songs with a megamix, yes it even has Wooh Heys!! Come back the original version all is forgiven, this is 10x worse!! This also raeched #13 in the UK.

maybe more than one
20 Sonia - You to Me Are Everything
Cover of The Real Thing hit and well you can already guess what it sounds like, generic PWL beats and Sonia with her awful voice all over it. This reached #13 in the UK

Yes it is a pretty solid show, the third season which is just out is supposed to be great but the final season is probably not going to be as good due to budget and cast cuts but enjoy the ones we have.

After the first looking on UK 1991 charts I think that my least favourite single is Salt-N-Pepa - Let's Talk About Sex. didn't make my top 100 but not a song I would ever choose to listen to

I think Get Ready For This is excellent, I’ve always thought if 2 Unlimited never did anything else they’d be quite fondly remembered. It’s worth pointing out the UK single release didn’t have a rap in it though, and was better for it. That is a good point and maybe why I disliked this version so much as an instrumental it is not bad

21 Jason Donovan - Happy Together
Away from musicals, we just have a terrible cover. I used to like this song not after this. Nowhere else in the world cares anymore but this made #10 in the UK.

22 New Kids On The Block - If You Go Away
They are just churning them out before they are completely forgotten, although somehow they came back!!!. Here we have the generic US pop ballad. Which actually gets worse when the chorus comes in, just painful. It reached #9 in the UK and #16 in the US.
