OK, now.. Yvy had just reminded me that I was tagged by Cindy more than 2 months ago and I had yet to complete the meme. So yeah, here’s how it goes:

1. Go to PopCulture.
2. On the left column, pick the year you turned 18 years old.
3. Get nostalgic over the songs *gulps*
4. Write about the songs.
5. Pass this to 5 other friends.

I was 18 in 1999..

… And the 15 chart-topping songs in 1999 were (my comments are italicized):

1. I’m Your Angel by R. Kelly and Celine Dion
   I just love how they sang this song.. So… Mesmerizing! I remember singing this over and again at the back of my head :)
2. Have You Ever by Brandy
   Have you ever loved somebody so much it makes you cry..?
3. Baby, One More Time by Britney Spears
   Aww.. This was at a time when Britney Spears was still “climbing the ladder”. She and her dance moves..
4. Angel of Mine by Monica
   This was one of my all-time favourites!
5. Believe by Cher
   I don’t quite like Cher because of her techno music, like this particular song.
6. No Scrubs by TLC
   I’ve heard this on radio, but I don’t seem to have anything to say about it..
7. Livin’ La Vida Loca by Ricky Martin
   Aiyoh.. This was a HOT song back then. Every now and then the radio station that I was listening to played it :)
8. If You Had My Love by Jennifer Lopez
   And yeah, this was at a time when J-Lo hasn’t insured her a$$ :)
9. Bills, Bills, Bills by Destiny’s Child
   Bills?! No, I don’t think I’ve heard of this..
10. Wild Wild West by Will Smith
    I don’t remember hearing this song on the radio! Where was I?!
11. Ginie in a Bottle by Christina Aguilera
    Err.. I’d say that I wasn’t a fan of Christina. Not now either.
12. Bailamos by Enrique Iglesias
    Who can forget Bailamos?! It’s still very much a hit today compared to some other songs on this list..! :)
13. Unpretty by TLC
    The first time I heard this on the radio, I thought the song title was “I’m Pretty”. And I was like, “OK, I’m pretty.”
14. Heartbreaker by Mariah Carey
    Mariah Carey is one of my all-time favourite. I particularly love her “All I Want For Christmas Is You” album..
15. Smooth by Santana
    Err.. Another “I-don’t-remember-listening-to” song.

I remember I started listening to the radio when … Waitaminute, I think I blogged about it before. Here it is. And well, I’m not going to tag anybody. But feel free to pick it up if/when you have what they call “writer’s block” :)
