Here's the winner of the first People's Choice poll, a completely original idea, not at all nicked from CD:UK. It's a big dance hit from June 1995, "Right In The Night" by Jam & Spoon feat. Plavka. It originally got to #31 in February 1994 but was another one which became a major success when re-released the following year. Rolf Ellmer and Mark Spoon hailed from Frankfurt, Germany and charted three further UK hits after this breakthrough hit: "Find Me (Odysee To Anyoona)" (#22, September 1995) and "Angel (Ladadi O-Heyo)" (#26, November 1995), both from the influential "Tripomatic Fairytales 2001" album.However, their biggest hit came in 2000 but under the different guise of Storm - "Time To Burn" rocketed all the way to number three. Their last UK hit was the massive chilled-out continental hit "Be.Angeled" (#31, February 2002). Sadly, Mark died of a heart attack in January 2006.
This week's People's Choice is between four ropey late-mid/early-late-1990s boybands. Whoever wins will have the honour of featuring on this marvellous blog, and you will be able to see one or two of their Top Of The Pops performances. How exciting. So who's it gonna be? 3T, 911, Damage or OTT? Vote now on the side of the page.

Easily one of my favourite posts on here AcerBen. One of my favourite all-time J&S moments was "Right In The Night" b-side, "Follow Me" - an absolute epic dance floor destroyer.
I'll have to see if I can find that one!
