Had to find Sonny J on Spotify as I didn't know what it was. Then I remembered it as soon as I heard it. Ugh, what a terrible record that was - clunky, really badly produced and noisy. Seems very popular here though.

..and again using my "sales" chart performances, the top 2 are classic oldies, but Bran Van is the best new track of the decade by some distance...
