The Story of Pop: 1999 – Bonus Tracks

OK. So we’re not quite done yet. As a little thank you for all the lovely feedback I’ve had on this series, here’s one more special post for you. A collection of 12 songs that were also hits in 1999, which I didn’t have time for on the main series.

Among this list, you’ll find everything and every one, from the blissed out vibes of Groove Armada, to the smooth R&B of former Fresh Prince of Bel Air star Tatyana Ali, via the pure pop of Lolly and A1. And best of all, they’re all here in video form and in a special Spotify playlist too.
