Your favourite pop explorers Joel and David are heading Down Under for this special two-part episode celebrating some unforgettable Australian pop icons from the late 90s and early 2000s.
This episode is all about the vocal powerhouse diva Vanessa Amorossi and teen-pop sensation Nikki Webster. Both were absolutely essential to Australian popular culture of the decade and their vibrant pop bops are still adored by millions of millennials to this very day.

Best known for her international dance hit 'Absolutely Everybody', Vanessa Amorosi is unquestionably one of Australia's greatest vocalists of her generation. Joel and David get into her multi platinum-selling debut album "The Power", which also includes hits like 'Shine', 'The Power' and 'Every Time I Close My Eyes'. They also look into Vanessa's more European-facing highlights like 'One Thing Leads to Another' and the French "Ab Fab" theme 'Champagne, Champagne', before toasting to her monumental comeback in 2008 with 'Perfect' and 2009's banger 'This Is Who I Am'.

By his own admission, Nikki Webster has the pop career Joel has always wanted. Straight after her unforgettable role in the 2000 Sydney Olympics Opening and Closing ceremonies, 13-year old Nikki signed a major label deal and turned her newfound profile into a successful pop career that also spawned a clothing line and her own businesses. The savvy dancer and musical theatre star will forever be immortalised for her breakthrough smash 'Strawberry Kisses' but Joel and David are not stopping there. Cue gems like 'Depend on Me', 'The Best Days', 'Something More Beautiful' and the Delta Goodrem-penned 'Let's Dance'!
If you're not familiar with these Aussie ladies of pop, we hope you enjoy this introduction and if you do, we hope this nostalgic trip brings you joy.
Stay tuned for Part 2 dropping in a few days, where we get into Sister 2 Sister, Leah Haywood and Joanne!
