Really... I mean, this is obviously "Better The Devil You Know", but easy to see they were losing it and becoming irrelevant quickly.

Why is there no None of the above option?

"Happenin' All Over Again". Probably my second favourite SAW hit, after Donna Summer's "This Time I Know It's for Real".

― Richard C, Sunday, 15 February 2009 15:05 (seventeen years ago)

yeah, that one.

― Mark G, Monday, 16 February 2009 10:34 (seventeen years ago)

Would have voted "Shocked", but I guess that's the next one...

Happenin' All Over Again or Better The Devil You Know. What the hell sort of name is Kakko?

― Frank Sumatra (NickB), Monday, 16 February 2009 10:46 (seventeen years ago)

A "one single deal" kinda name...

Ah it was a solo person. Had assumed it was the worst boy band name ever.

"I'm Doing Fine" is very funny.

Obviously "Better The Devil You Know", probably the only post-1990 SAW single whose stature has risen over time (though Kylie's "What Do I Have To Do?" from the same album runs it very close)

"Shocked" and "What Do I Have To Do" are in the 1991 poll, and possibly even more obvious favourites there :)

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

― the next grozart, Thursday, 19 February 2009 02:25 (seventeen years ago)

happenin all over again was pretty good though.

― the next grozart, Thursday, 19 February 2009 02:26 (seventeen years ago)

'better the devil you know'>>>>'happenin all over again'>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>the rest. easy. still, those two mean that SAW 90 was loads better than SAW 89.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

There's an awful lot of unmemoreable stuff amongst the zero voted ones.

Was the writing on the wall?
