Shocking and all as it is to some of us of a certain vintage, 1997 was twenty whole years ago.

That's right ladies; you're old.

And while there are certain things we're more than happy to leave in the past (rip-off Adidas tracksuit bottoms, platform trainers and butterfly clips to name but three), there's no denying that the charts at the time were hopping with absolute stompers.

If you were an absolute pop addict, 1997 was the year for you. From All Saints and Oasis to Aqua and Boyzone, 1997 was the year that just kept on giving.

And if you still need a little convincing, look no further than this absolute gem of a compilation.

Racking up 42,000 likes and 64,000 shares, POPline's tribute to 1997 has us longing for the days our bedrooms were adorned with Spice Girls posters and our angsty older siblings blared Oasis, and insisted the world was against them.

1997, we salute you.
